A penny farthing for your thoughts

The youngest teenager & I worked on my mental healthy spooky garden tonight. I can’t do dirt math so I accidentally only bought enough for 1 box 😬.

Published today: my book "Forgotten Times" - 180 photographs taken by me in the 1950s and 60s on the streets of the UK, Ireland and the outer islands and depicting a world largely unknown to the present day.

The term ‘woke’ has been weaponised as being a bad thing. Yet woke merely means ‘being compassionate’, ‘having awareness of others’ needs’, and ‘a willingness to think beyond our own self interest.’ If anyone said increasing those behaviours was a danger they’d be laughed at.
