2025: In Pictures
31 May 2025: Blyth Spartan
I was frantically googling "knight in Blyth" to see what this was. In retrospect it's really quite obvious.
30 May 2025: New Kit
I got my first close-up look at the new Newcastle home shirt.
29 May 2025: Feyenoord
Today I learned that dutch football and zombie rabbits go together.
28 May 2025: Egg Family
These are super cute and gave me a little happy boost this morning.
27 May 2025: Press Button to Start
I can only assume that a button somewhere will make slices of pizza start to run.
26 May 2025: Unfortunate Choice
For some reason the Lidl bakery was using bags that looked dangerously like something you'd scoop up dog poo in. It made my choice of
snack look pretty unfortunate.
25 May 2025: Weekly Shop
The dreaded Lidl mission.
24 May 2025: Goats
I was on a path I've used many times so I was surprised to pass some goats that I definitely hadn't seen before.
23 May 2025: Farter
It took me a second to realise this was not a mistake.
22 May 2025: Open
There's a new coffee place inside St Thomas' Church, which is evidently now open.
21 May 2025: Blue Shirt
I was almost glad to be back at work today after being unwell so I decided to dress smartly in my new shirt.
20 May 2025: Potato Slicer
I thought this was a weird cheese grater but apparently it's for potatoes.
19 May 2025: Loo Roll
I had an upset stomach today so I was pleased we had plenty toilet roll.
18 May 2025: Sally Time
Can't beat a Sunday hanging out with Sally!
17 May 2025: Track
Every time I see a race track painted on grass I have an urge to do a timed 100 metre sprint.
16 May 2025: Dragon?
I don't know exactly what this is but it was on the sign for a Sri Lankan food place. I don't think it's on the menu.
15 May 2025: Rice Bowl
I pushed aside the voice in my head telling me we had chicken in the house and caved at the suggestion of a KFC.
14 May 2025: Face Wash
I couldn't find my usual face wash when I was shopping recently but this has been a pretty good substitute.
13 May 2025: Birthday Cake
It's still not quite Mam's birthday but we had another early celebration with presents and cake.
12 May 2025: Huge Babybel
My prayers have been answered - I found a big babybel in Lidl.
11 May 2025: Oddballs Socks
I got some new colourful socks. I also got new knickers but I don't think the world needs to see those.
10 May 2025: Afternoon Tea
My wonderful Mam is turning 70 soon so we had a family afternoon tea at Running Fox to celebrate. Everything I'd heard about the portion sizes was correct as nobody could finish the entire
offering!
9 May 2025: Carni Pizza
Kieran's leaving do was at Rudy's, where I had this beautiful meaty pizza.
8 May 2025: Modes of Transport
I stuck with feet - no bikes, dogs or horses for me.
7 May 2025: Kittens
Lorri's cat had kittens recently so we went along to meet them for a cuddle. They are adorable!
6 May 2025: Drain
The washing machine decided to display an error this morning. Thankfully it was easily fixed once I drained the water out.
5 May 2025: Yellow Room
Our downstairs toilet was in need of a freshen up so I gave it the first coat of yellow paint.
4 May 2025: Nature
I liked this picture which someone has put near building works as a reminder to preserve as much of the nature in the area as possible.
3 May 2025: Summer Duvet
I'm sick of waking up like a sweaty mess so we've invested in a summer duvet.
2 May 2025: Fake
One of these leaves is an imposter.
1 May 2025: Wheelchair
I was fairly surprised to see an unattended wheelchair on my walk to work this morning.
