Friday afternoon annual leave mood.

As a regular user of Kirkgate Market, I've an idea to improve footfall. Just get on with reopening the bus route from the east which has been closed since April 2024. Radical, I know.

The parent album is amazing too.

Your occasional reminder of Steve Plytas saying ‘fuck’ in an episode of The Avengers.

I wish my telly had no charge #totp

No, UFO #totp

Nicky Tesco was great #totp

#OnThisDay 1980 : The first episode of Together was broadcast on ITV. Produced by Southern Televison, this daytime soap would last for two series which the second series was broadcast live. #80s (TV listing @woodg31.bsky.social)

The Famous City Varieties is still a cracking venue #TheGoodOldDays

#afcb I bloody love this team.

🎵Your name it is heard in high places. You know the Aga Khan. He sent you a race horse for Christmas. And you keep it just for fun, for a laugh, a-ha-ha-ha! 🎶 Possibly my favourite ever lyric from a number 1 record.

The great pub rock revival! #totp

A great film, and kudos to Talking Pictures for showing it.

It's just gone 3pm on Christmas Day, so time to stand for the national anthem.

This week's entry in the "Spot Peter Mitchell's shadow" competition.

Happy 100th Birthday, Dick Van Dyke.

7 and a half hours later with a journey of two buses, two trains and two tube trains. I bloody well made it #welldeserved

Person on the train next to me just said "in Australia!" loudly down their phone. I've now got the Manics song in my head which is no bad thing.

Funny how things suddenly become news when they happen in affluent areas.

pass it on to anyone in Leeds who might need assistance #HomelessDrive #Leeds #HorseAndTrumpet

Getting old school FA Cup final vibes from the budget coverage this morning. All it needs is footage of the Chancellor eating their breakfast.

We can now read the Dr Seuss quote, which seems rather apt "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not."

Before and after in Harehills Park this morning with @pamswears.bsky.social.

Postbox bollards outside the Post Office. Absolutely delightful. #WorldBollardAssociation 📮

Watching a cookery programme where they are making a dish with leftover caviar. Somehow don't think I'm the target market.

Bad day at the office today #afcb

Orinoco No #totp

Good luck to #afcb today, but 4.30pm on a Sunday is a rubbish time for a football match.

Having lunch by the Roger Stevens Building. If this doesn't win Leeds best building of the last 60 years, I'll eat my hat.

Sorry, who did Arsenal play today?

46

I really miss the direct train between Bournemouth and Leeds, there were no worries about missed connections. Unlike today.

I ... want... to see a sketch of Eric's please

Happy 75th Birthday to the guvnor of the Saucy Seventies, Sir Robin Askwith!

Did someone say beveragino?

The Cruisin' Casanova!

My hovercraft is full of eels.

Does anyone know a good burger van? I'm ravenous #totp

Roundhay Road, Leeds, 1970s

Sampled on a Jive Bunny single. If that's not a badge of honour, I don't know what is.

My four previous visits to Elland Road supporting #afcb have brought four defeats. Not so today. UTC!

Bloody hell it's rainy.

I agree. Those survey forms he handed out to his audiences were cringe inducing

Because life is hard enough when you belong here, Steven.

YORKSHIRE SANDS (1955)

Jesus Christ. You could be in Leeds in that time.

@sentimentbot.bsky.social Break it to me gently.

BBC news showing the Trump protest in London, Sylvester McCoy has just appeared on a vox pop.

I pretend I'm not influenced by advertising, but have just bought a Keep Britain Tidy Butt Box for the name alone. I don't even smoke.

The Wurzels singing the theme and Askwith's bum. Proper Saturday night telly.
