2025: In Pictures

Index

31 July 2025: Loops 2
I panic every time I think I've lost one of my Loops so I've bought a second pair.

30 July 2025: Wallsend Art
This underpass at Wallsend Metro Station has been given a makeover.

29 July 2025: Howay Blyth
I'm not sure how many Blyth Spartans players are looking for support from stickers placed around Newcastle, but maybe it'll help.

28 July 2025: Shark Blanket
We each have shark blankets, because it seemed like something that would suit our household.

27 July 2025: Euro Champions
England Women have done it again! They've won Euro 2025 after a dramatic series of late goals and penalty shootouts.

26 July 2025: Plumbing
Our toilet has been trickling constantly so I had a look inside. I worked out what the problem was but when it came to trying to fix it I ended up using a screwdriver to turn off the water flow instead.

25 July 2025: Galleon
There was plenty of time for a stroll along the quayside before I started work. I went to have a look at the Nao Victoria. It took a lot of restraint not to commandeer the ship and sail off somewhere to avoid work!

24 July 2025: Tuna Pizza
Rudy's do a lovely tuna pizza. I got mushrooms added to mine because why not? It was a rare social occasion for me but it was great to catch up with some former colleagues.

23 July 2025: Double Cake
It was so nice to celebrate my 7th birthday at my home group, especially when there were two cakes.

22 July 2025: Seven
I have been sober for 7 years! I honestly never imagined this would be possible.

21 July 2025: Sandpaper
I can't remember why Noirin bought this and I'm scared to ask in case she issues me with a chore.

20 July 2025: Dock
I'm working towards a solution for days when both me and Noirin are working from home.

19 July 2025: Rainy Reservoir
I sat by the reservoir for a few moments and it started raining. It was it really refreshing and I always love watching raindrops on water.

18 July 2025: Recognition
This looks dangerously like my own face this morning after a late night watching England Women progress in the Euros on penalties.

17 July 2025: Dark Arts
Not a standard breakfast but everyone is different.

16 July 2025: Sneaking
With a day of work ahead of me I was quite tempted to see if I could get in there myself.

15 July 2025: Sale Shirt
Obviously when I was buying boots I also got myself a shirt.

14 July 2025: Grass
There's still a lot to do but I've at least cut the grass, which was in danger of taking over the house.

13 July 2025: Sale Boots
I was fortunate that these boots popped up on sale not long after the laces snapped on the similar pair I had.

12 July 2025: Prints
I think my favourite is the hedgehog but the size looks scarily large.

11 July 2025: Proud
This golden figure looks very proud. I suppose I would to if I got to hang out on top of a clock all day looking shiny.

10 July 2025: Sport-Freak
With the heat lately I think any attempt at sport would make me a sweaty freak.

9 July 2025: No Idea
Yeah, I don't really know what this is. It falls into the "something to take a photo of" category.

8 July 2025: Bag Lady
Off to work I go, loaded up with bags of supplies.

7 July 2025: Lidl Socks
It's been a while since I've bought a terrible item of Lidl clothing.

6 July 2025: Strawberries & Cream
It's always a risk deviating from my usual brownies but these strawberries and cream blondies proved worthwhile. The only downside is they are very melty.

5 July 2025: Seaton Delaval Hall
I love this replica on top of a postbox in Seaton Delaval.

4 July 2025: Box Life
Sally has a new favourite box. I'd quite like one too but I haven't found one big enough yet.

3 July 2025: Garden Bin
I finally bit the bullet and paid the subscription fee for garden waste collection.

87

2 July 2025: Mowgli
We went for a team meal at Mowgli to celebrate Carol's qualification as a Legal Executive.

1 July 2025: Repairs
I think I'd trust him to do repairs more than I'd trust myself.
