So many people belong in the bin.

I don't get much time for photography these days & it can feel like I've lost something or at least like I've forgotten what makes my brain light up. But then I get the chance to extract the abstract from a scene and I remember what makes me tick and it's a good feeling.

The average human male has around 100000 hair follicles.
70% of these migrate to the ears and the nostrils when they hit 50 years of age.

I had a very nice couple of days on the Isle of Wight but it's good to be home and be ignored by the cat.

There's a time and a place for humour and looking up treatments for unpleasant conditions absolutely is not it.

Had to sign up for some pharmacy thing to get a vax tomorrow. I hate this and after seeing this, I hate them even more.

'But trousers don't need to be cooked!' you may be thinking.
Yeah, except the latest sausage and egg trousers. It's called fashion, darling. Try it some time.

Imagine a clothes shop doing this. I'm sorry sir, you can buy the T shirt now but we won't sell you the trousers until 10.

Go Groucho! Amazing journey.

Found another place. I just don't know why anywhere would do that or at least not include the information on their website. Mind you, this is Portsmouth, where no-one is meant to have a nice time.

What is the point of a cafe saying it opens at 9 if they don't do food until 10? Absolutely fuckery

Turned out to be pro-level timing. Turned up, stopped in designated lane, switched engine off, immediately start engine, board and away.

It remains to be seen if I'll get on the return ferry. My fault. Miscalculated. A fun blat across the island. Waiting to board the 7.40 or it'll be the next one.

Fair enough.

Gordon Nodrog @gordonnodrog.bsky.social · 1d

Are you going to replace it?

I am sure the two things are not connected, but I can't help thinking...

A very local barfly. There's one in every pub. They know everything, they've done everything, they are always right. Probably got a flagpole in their front garden.
