The Daily Record: celebrated Neil's 80th by playing my favourite of his albums while doing the dishes earlier. The musical interplay between him and the Horse on this record is 🔥🔥🔥 #NeilYoung #Zuma 🎂🎈

A mate recently lent me the DVD of this astonishing documentary by Wim Wenders about the life of Sebastião Salgado. It is, at times, harrowing viewing but ultimately a story of hope that brilliantly details the essential contradictions of the human character. Highly recommended ✅ #SaltOfTheEarth 🎥

It's spreading... #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️ #Cheshire 😯

🚨 NEW Cummings Your Way 🚨 Dan and Lee revisit #Shrewsbury, shake off their linguistic prejudices, sag sumptuously, then groan under the weight of ecclesiastica - all to achieve sartorial symbiosis amid the cool pink sandstone of #Shropshire's handsome county town. @cummingsyourway.bsky.social 🐍

🎶 Wait! Oh yes, wait a minute, Mister Postman. Wait! Wai-ai-ai-ait Mister Postman. Mister Postman look and see (oh, yeah), is there some grit salt in your bin for me? 🎶 #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️ #Shrewsbury #Shropshire 💛📮

Forget about the Statue of Liberty scene... it's been superceded! #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️

🎶 You've abandoned me. Grit don't live here anymore 🎶 A picture of rural degradation in Little Ness 😢 #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️ #LittleNess #Shropshire 💛

Common Heather was still flowering abundantly last Thursday lunchtime on the Cliffe (rhymes with 'life'), an area of lowland heath in the Nesscliffe Hills. #WildflowerHour #Shropshire 💜

A very happy half century to this absolute BANGER 💥 #Sailor #GlassOfChampagne 🍾

Beautiful autumn shades in the woodland on the Cliffe this lunchtime 💛🧡 #Shropshire 🍂☁️🚴

Greatest. Of. All. Time #JustSaying 🐐

Hi @ferrettrash.bsky.social! Just wondering if you've seen this from the BBC Archives vaults? An incredible social document of a much-lamented line, and profoundly sad to watch (well, I thought so!): #Railways #Norfolk 🚉

Total devastation on Middletown Hill. I think the other one might be an older grit bin too. #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️

🎶 It takes two baby, it takes two baby. To make a dream come true. You know it takes two 🎶 A Kingspan Titan 400 and red Glasdon Fido 25 standing side-by-side in perfect harmony at an autumnal Back Lane short stay car park, Much Wenlock. #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️ #MuchWenlock #Shropshire 💛♥️

🎶 Whoa-oh, oh-ohhh camouflage. Things are never quite the way they seem 🎶 A stealth, stone grey Glasdon grit bin blends in seamlessly with its surroundings on Queen Street, Much Wenlock: #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️ #MuchWenlock #Shropshire 🪨

The north county church alighted in #Knockin this afternoon at the beautiful Norman church of St Mary's, which dates from 1182. Despite being gutted by fire in the late 18th century it retains many original features and some striking stained glass. A visit is highly recommended! #Shropshire 💒

🎶 Bus stop, bus goes, ice stays, salt grows. Under my grit bin lid 🎶 #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️ #Shrewsbury #Shropshire 💛🚌

This is what I'm talking about 👇 #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️ #Shrewsbury #Shropshire 💛💚

🎶 I see a grit bin and I want it painted black 🎶 #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️ #Shrewsbury #Shropshire 🖤

Greatest Hits albums don't come much better than this one (IMHO): #UB40 🔥🔥🔥

A lovely article about old Salop town 👇 #Shrewsbury #Shropshire

Lunch at the excellent Olde Jack Inn, #Calverhall today and a visit to the intriguing Victorian roadside Gothic of Holy Trinity church: #Shropshire 🍽️💒🎈

🎶 I went down to the crossroads, got down on my knees (and took a photo of Glasdon Nestor 400™ grit bin) 🎶 #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️ #WalfordHeath #Shropshire 💛

Back-to-back wins, a third clean sheet in a row, and just the type of gritty, resilient and determined display we have been craving for the longest time. Something is stirring in SY2 and I think I like it! #Salop 💙🧡

The red sandstone tower of St. Luke's parish church pierces the anti-cyclonic gloom on a grey autumn afternoon in #Hodnet: #Shropshire 💒

🚨 NEW Cummings Your Way 🚨 Join Dan and Lee as they rekindle pinbright days of flailing terribly in #Claverley before revisiting #Bridgnorth in the fragile light of a February afternoon to consider the manifold reasons for handsomeness of a "pretty good looking town." 🕰️ @cummingsyourway.bsky.social

💥 BANGER ALERT 💥 Might do a thread about my favourite #UB40 songs soon...

Ahoy, Fab Four fans! Have you caught 'The Beatles: Month by Month' over on the 'Tube yet? I've loved their music all my life but, being born after the fact, I've never seen anything that's come closer to capturing the essence of Beatlemania - and the archive footage is AMAZING! ✅ #TheBeatles 🐐

The power of three: grit salt bin ✅ railway bridge ✅ closed station building ✅ Really, I ask you, does it get any better than this? #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️ #Hadnall #Shropshire 💛 #Railways 🚉

That's better ☺️ It's been coming for a while, but the boys finally got the three points our performances have deserved over recent home games. Pressed the opposition well in the first half, and managed them adeptly in the second. Lloyd, Kabia and the rejuvenated Hoole were all excellent ✅ #Salop 💙🧡

🎶 I say "high." You say "low." You say "why?" And I say "I don't know." 🎶 #Ellesmere #Shropshire 💒

There are no words to adequately do justice to the marvel that greeted me on the latest leg of the north county church tour today. St Mary's #Ellesmere is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING: #Shropshire 💒

Word of the day: CIGFRAN ‘raven’, geiriadur.ac.uk/gpc/gpc.html... a bird of prey, considered clever and wise. It often offered advice to poets in prophetic poems, and was one of the three birds (with the heron and eagle) most valued in the ancient laws of Wales.

A southbound TfW Class 197 sweeps down the line from Crewe passed the site of Hadnall station (closed 1960). #Shropshire #TrainsOnTuesday #Railways 🚉

🎶 I've looked at grit bins from both sides now, from up and down and still somehow... 🎶 #GritSaltBinMonday 🧂❄️⚠️ #Merrington #Shropshire

The north county church tour touched down in #Loppington today at the venerable St Michael's and All Angels. The Grade-1 listed structure retains many medieval features and fine craftsmanship throughout, from ornate carvings to beautiful tapestries and stained glass. Very impressive. #Shropshire 💒☁️

🎶 You say you've seen seven wonders, and your grit salt bin is... GREEN? 🎶 😯😍💚 #GritSaltBinMonday #Adcote #Shropshire 🧂❄️⚠️
