Aldi bargain alert... especially for @nkdgardener.bsky.social Can you have too much cheese? Now 99p for 500g

Oh, here we go again And it's right outside a primary school. #York @therealyplac.bsky.social @yplac.bsky.social

There is a little known rule in the Highway Code that states if you own a Merc you can park where the heck you like. #York @yplac.bsky.social @therealyplac.bsky.social

So here's this North Yorkshire Police speed camera van parked outside our house on a road which has a 30 limit, widely ignored. Of course traffic is creeping past it. If the police had any intention of catching speeding motorists it would be disguised as a bread van.

We need homes that are affordable, for single people and for the elderly. Not more executive 4 bed hoses on greenfield sites The 'Market' cant fix the problems the market causes

Twat. #monkscross #york

Oh no just found myself with transport influencer @ogilvie.org.uk and look where we turned up...

Current view...Love this place #beverley #eastyorkshire

www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... Borrowing an idea from @nkdgardener.bsky.social this is also worth half an hour of anyone's time. This programme was so much part of my growing up.

On my travels...oh no I seem to have found myself at a station (again) #vastraffik #göteburg #gothenburg

It's just winging its way to my "device"... I'm going to enjoy this!

Well, last week was the 50th anniversary of the start of Pennine Radio in #Bradford - being 14 years old at its start it was a great influence on me. Two things I heard on it first: the death of #Elvis & the arrest of Peter Sutcliffe. Who else remembers Dorothy Box?

#OTD 42 years ago (2 September 1983 to be exact) a scarily random series of events led me to meet this lovely guy. Still together.

What a joyous way of spending an afternoon at @thesjt.bsky.social Shout out to the set designers and the incredible scene changers who were deservedly included in the curtain call. Bravo to the lot of you. #noisesoff #scarborough

Well this is rather sweet. Our train home. #trainbow #pride

Don't ever forget when walking in a city, keep looking up. You never know what you'll see next.. Sinclair House, Belfast #belfast #artdeco #architecture

A wonderful find - a very dangerous bookshop to browse. Eclectic, slightly bonkers and peaceful. Everything a good bookshop should be. #belfast #linenhall

Apparently it's compulsory when visiting #Galway to take a picture of this building.

Peak Ireland: Combined public house and haberdashery. #dingle #kerry #chiarraí

Must-have souvenir of 🇮🇪 Don't mind if I do...

Must be Cork (very nice street light on the right)

Well this is exciting

Had a great journey earlier this week to the lovely city of Hereford on one of the ex LNER trainsets operated by TfW and on the journey I discovered that the Welsh for "flush" is Fflysh and now my life is complete.

Today's garden impressions

A not uncommon situation to be seen at King's Cross but still worth a pic...9 platforms on the main line side all occupied. Taken about 10:35 Monday 9 June.

Hosta corner...

Silent scream.....

Worth reading and digesting. Common sense by the spadeful.

Happy St George's Day! England's national day, when we celebrate our patron saint, a Turkish officer in the Roman army who died in Palestine and never visited Britain. And, he didn't kill a dragon.

It had to happen...sometime or other

Something tells me there's engineering work going on north of York. Or a pack of three Azumas. @lner.co.uk

Visited my happy place yesterday, best place to shop...called in at Ripon on my way to do a job in Wensleydale. #booths

Well this is strange (and one for you @nkdgardener.bsky.social ) Sometimes with online banking a little logo will appear next to an item so you can see to whom money has been paid. Up until recently the Aldi logo was correct (Süd) - but the latest one has the wrong logo (Nord). Weird!

Please please take note of this. What Microsoft have done is underhand, sneaky and ought to be illegal. If you have an Office 365 subscription, do this.

Just been to the shop to get the paper. (Guardian, obvs) Woman in front of me had a strange duo in her basket: a case of eighteen cans of Carling and a cauliflower. 🤔

This is very worrying. Does it mean that if you donate, you will wake up the next morning to the sight of hundreds of cats camped outside your front door, demanding to be let in & fed? Anyway that white cat on the poster looks pure evil.

This shot could really only have been taken on a #Bakerloo line platform #monochrome #underground #london

Snow report. Quite a bit (for us, in York)

Happy Birthday Mr. @christhody.bsky.social You're still nobbut a sprite, though.. Have a lovely day.

I saw this in my photo files and thought I'd post it for a certain Aldi fan friend of mine. Aldi....but not as we know it....guess where?

Twilight and Venus, Huntington, York.

Black & white photo... Hamburg Hauptbahnhof, 10 December 2024

Magnificent old signage near Hoxton station. Very near to St. Mary's Secret Garden.

Oh I'm going to enjoy reading this... @johnkampfner.bsky.social Takes me back to my first visit in 1986, travelled to Berlin by train from Hamburg through the Buchen/Schwanheide and Staaken/Spandau check points...

Bit chuffin' cold this morning

Lisbon shop front that caught my eye
