A headline for @visitwakefield.bsky.social Spotted at The Hepworth, a cutting from the Yorkshire Evening Post in 1955. “Leeds is an Ugly City” says Helen Kapp, Director of Wakefield City Art Gallery.

Spotted in Wakefield recently. Did a double take. Pleased to note that it didn't say what I thought it said, which is just as well, given that it's on the top floor of an office block and hardly 'convenient'.

Friend on Instagram reposted a video explaining how the pyramid scheme she's part of isn't a pyramid scheme and how pyramid schemes aren't that bad anyway because the whole world is a pyramid scheme and why do you have to be such a downer and just join the hustle society. #FacebookNews

Someone has escaped from Leeds.

Treated myself to a full tank of petrol today.

I never realised that Bradford used to have a car manufacturer. I especially liked the faux leather car. Not sure why that finish didn't take off. A decent day out at the Bradford Industrial Museum.

People travel from miles around to have a go on Wakefield's most exhilarating ride. #WakeyPedia

I'll never forget what my grandad said to me before he croaked. He said "hey kid, wanna hear my frog impression?"

When people find out a local business owner is running as a Reform Councillor it must put a dent in that business's patronage.

Erm...

They call me the animal whisperer.

If there's one thing I love, it's a good parliament.

I always put the Dungeons 'n' Dragons sign up when I stay in a hotel, but nobody ever comes to play.

Call that an opera house? Pfft.

You never hear of anyone getting attacked in the Office for National Statistics. There must be safety in numbers.

FFS - He has risen!

I get anxiety about travelling to Leeds. Imagine how you'd feel if you were setting out on a 900,000km round trip in 4 hours time.

Just booked our summer holiday in Båstad, Sweden. *snigger

Just worked out how to make Coronation Chicken. This is a dangerous turn-up for the books. Didn't realise it was so easy.

The idea for this video has been in my head for many years. Not quite sure what that says about me, but Tom Adams DFS Supercut, I set you free... www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-bO...

Big cats in Wakefield WX.

Apparently he's coming to Leeds today.

There’s a queue in Wakefield, Jayne McDonald is making an appearance at the HMV. I can’t go in and look at CDs, how rude. Could you sort it out @visitwakefield.bsky.social ?

First garden waste collection of the year.

The tribes of Britain c. 540 in the time of Gildas.

We're getting all the huge acts these days in Wakefield. I can't wait to see which of her extensive repertoire of well known songs she will perform.

See, Leeds isn't always bad @visitwakefield.bsky.social

Someone was planning a very bougie party!

Probably not a commonly photographed spot in Leeds here. You've got the modern high rise developments, juxtaposed with the roof of the Grand Theatre and the brutalist city centre motorway.

We live intestine times ...

Offal news.

The Wolverine that could have been.

William Riker looks like he had a rough night.

EDI going to far now.

The good stuff. #HardForRhubarb

The sound of cracking as the sun heats up the black plastic gutters and drain pipes.

Too busy watching the curling and haven't mentioned the Rhubarb Festival this weekend. Anyone else #HardForRhubarb?
