Bimbling down the auld Corpse Road with a view to a pint or two...

Love a good walk, pubs, music, beer, art, cider, Leicester Tigers RFC, the Sooty Show.

Apologies, launch date rescheduled for 31st April. Still struggling to find some ribbon and a pair of photogenic scissors… and a star turn.

This bronze statue of Alice Hawkins is by the sculptor Sean Hedges-Quinn. It stands in Green Dragon Square on Leicester Market, and is the first statue of a named woman in the county of Leicester. Hawkins was a leading suffragette in Leicester’s shoe trade.

A Camera as attractive as this deserves a serious style upgrade, a knackered old Leica case just the job. Needs some serious attention though, stitching, leather restoration, and sadly one of the leather strap ‘lugs’ has broken so I’m going to have to think about that one…

I don’t know what it is about Record Store Day but I missed it yet again. Probably something to do with there being so many of them now, I’ll probably miss Advent RSD and Shrove Tuesday RSD too…

Put a fiver into the charity shop bucket for this old budget banger in boring auld black vinyl instead.

Yes, these things rarely lead to any meaningful change, but at least it’ll embarrass politicians sufficiently that they’ll have to acknowledge it in parliament.
🚨Now at almost 85,000 signatures. Let’s keep going!

One of several covers for Giant-Sized Criminal, out next Wednesday from Ed Brubaker & @seanphillips.bsky.social Sean’s initial cover design mooted a Xmas Special so I took one of his characters and made him Bad Santa, now he’s just bad!

It’s Bendy’s birthday! To celebrate I gifted him a great exhibition idea - but he didn’t seem convinced!

I see Farage now hates emigration as well as immigration. The trouble is, he’s a big part of why people are emigrating. Brexit has made the U.K. a less attractive place for everyone.

The current cider fridge offering at the Two Tailed Lion in Leicester. I honestly can’t comment on most of these but I would say that if you absolutely have to drink cider, the Galipette Cidre is pretty good.
