We were on Kirkstall Rd at the time when the River Aire had just burst. Saw the water coming towards us and managed to get away before it became serious!

Dvořák conjures theme after theme of ravishing beauty in the finale of his beloved Cello Concerto in B minor, here performed with an expressive panache characteristic of Steven Isserlis, alongside the Berliner Philharmoniker and Alan Gilbert 🎻

Leeds "antiquarian" Ralph Thoresby, died otd in 1725.
(300 years ago)
Known for his diaries and "Ducatus Leodiensis.
Without him, we wouldn't have the history of Leeds the way we know it!

Enjoying it very much. The house on the front cover looks like Temple Newsam but not so sure because I thought the building doesn't have a wall. Do you know which building it is?
