Happy New Year! A before & after NY park run photo…

Just finished reading Revolutionary Spirit by Paul Simpson - loved it. Still chuckling at how Flaming Sword got its title! One of the first singles Jo & I bought. m.youtube.com/watch?v=JY-6eZ…

A rite of passage - Dougie’s first trip to ROCK CITY. A fantastic night - loved The Royston Club!

A week including meals at Koinonia in Newark and then Binks Yard and Cleaver & Wake The Island Quarter, a gig ROCK CITY and a trip to Nottingham Playhouse is a good (if slightly tiring!) week. Love Nottingham/Notts.

Decided to get the ferry to Calais today - not done this in years. Sun came out too! Never knew about the Lace links with Nottingham.

I probably should have grown out of loving getting a medal ;)

Watching the East Anglian derby at an Irish pub in Cannes, as you do! COYY!

Prefer the one Nottingham Playhouse ;)

#COYY

I accept I am biased towards music from or which references Nottingham- and this new album from David Boulter ticks both boxes. Inspired by his time growing up in St Anns - it’s lovely. claypipemusic.bandcamp.com/album/st-anns

Should be watching Tom Holland coming on stage in Romeo & Juliet now. Instead here’s a photo of a field somewhere in Cambridgeshire… nearly been on this train longer than we queued to buy the tickets in the first place - argh!

Well worth a listen ;)

A really lovely trip to some of the best attractions in City & County.

Morning!

Forget the Northern Lights, the East Midlands one are much better…

As life affirming as always matthew caws

Loved Animal Farm at Nottingham Playhouse last night - amazing production, do get to see it if you can. This review in LeftLion Magazine Nottingham is spot on. leftlion.co.uk/features/2025/…

Absolutely loved this… almost perfect… The Ballad of Wallis Island m.youtube.com/watch?v=HTi-e2…
