@mjjjennings.bsky.social @newsukarchives.bsky.social Have you seen in today’s paper? Lisdoonvarna! I’ve popped a link to your recent piece in the comments today as it seems a shame not to link the two pieces www.thetimes.com/article/8e66...

@mjjjennings.bsky.social Second Lisdoonvarna reference this week - randomly popping up in a novel I was reading this afternoon. There’s surely going to be a third one…

@newsukarchives.bsky.social @mjjjennings.bsky.social Have you seen this? www.nytimes.com/2025/08/18/a... A common theme, I missed this piece in the NYT in August but helpfully they flagged it in their Morning newsletter today and I thought of you! One for you too @marcaspland.bsky.social

Missed this as we were heading home after our holiday (and then once back I failed to open Bluesky app for ages) but a quick first look suggests this is another cracker from @newsarchive.bsky.social For fans of the Brutalist style it includes a great shot of Trellick Tower under construction

Morning all. Photograph by Chris Steele Perkins, Middlesbrough, Back alley 1976.

I’ve not come across this photograph of Norman Yardley and Hedley Verity before Another great post by @picturesporting.bsky.social #cricket #photography

A super choice from Des to start the day…

Everything Ed writes is a must-read and this piece is no exception. Thoughtful, evocative writing. The image at the end - no spoilers; read the piece! - will linger long in my memory @marcaspland.bsky.social @mjjjennings.bsky.social @athersmike.bsky.social Think this is a piece you’d each enjoy

A superb photograph With a bottle of ale close at hand clearly thirsty work for ‘Bosser’ #cricket #photography

Another terrific archive piece from @mjjjennings.bsky.social and the @newsukarchives.bsky.social team #photography #london #archives

I live there, would like to have seen this. Ladies cricket at Greenfield, Saddleworth, 1902.

This month’s brilliant archive piece by @mjjjennings.bsky.social and @newsukarchives.bsky.social team made me think of Tish Murtha’s wonderful photography Behind a pay wall but if you have a subscription this is such an enjoyable distraction from the rest of the news #photography #archives

Not perhaps as well known as others working in the field, Mik’s photography - inspired by and made possible by deep connections within his local community - was always full of humanity and often deeply moving and poignant #photography #northeast

Really looking forward to this and hoping it sells like hot cakes #photography #history

Good morning, Helen @heleneccles.bsky.social & thanks so much for "spreading the word" to Sathnam @sathnam.bsky.social too. Here's one that I hope you'll both like: this is ""The Mill" by Phyllis Bray from 1933. It depicts a view on the Thames & Severn canal at Chalford in Gloucestershire.

@sathnam.bsky.social if you’re still looking for suggestions for lovely, more cheery, accounts to follow, I recommend @eastlondongroup.bsky.social whose posts are always a tonic
