I claim to be from a council house on the mean streets of Wolverhampton, but here I am eating goose pizza.

Managed to change the brake light bulb on a Kia Venga after only two attempts & about 30 minutes. Not including time spent looking at manual, watching YouTube video & driving out* to buy the bulb.

I read or heard recently that the Blues Brothers attire was based on Roy Orbison's.

I noticed the resemblance, but thought nothing more of it. Then I was told it was him & looked it up.

It reminded me of his role in one of the subsequent Star Wars movies "seems we've caught them in the middle of an evacuation!" 😀

Skiddaw seen from the north this afternoon.

Two sheep in the foreground on a field with mountains in the background. There are clouds in the pale blue sky, some of which are lower than the mountains.

Twice I've read this post as celebrity hot blackcurrant, which makes being unwell seem more glamorous.

I wouldn't say I've met a miserable Cumbrian, but one guy I've met dozens of times has been having an off day an awful lot of those times.

Grey day at the seaside. The Scottish coast can just be seen through the gloom.

A grey day with poor visibility at the beach. The shore stretches out to the distance & another shore across the water can just be seen through the low cloud.
