#smalltowninertia The people may have more clamour & interest in working class photography according to the Guardian but I’ll tell you who doesn’t… power.

That’s why photography, especially that made by those within the scene depicted, is as vital as ever. ✌️

Marie Gardiner Grim Art Mine came the other day, enjoyed looking through the images. After all the attempts at 're-developing' the St Hilda's area, the Transporter has been there looking over, I hope for years to come.

Marie Gardiner Grim Art Mine arrived today; thanks! Good timing as I watched Boro play Hull the other night, and it might prompt a footballing excursion with my sons to see a game at the Riverside. And of course take in the bridge, too.

We went to the pedestrian Tyne Tunnel today 😍

'Transporter,' my zine featuring the Transporter Bridge, is available now! It's £8 which includes UK postage. I'm avoiding adding links in this first tweet as it can limit the reach, so they'll be threaded below and are also on my site.
