Happily retired, long married, Northern Soul and Motown fan. Northerner - now loving life in the South. Dog lover. Francophile and Hispanophile. Proud European and love to travel. Try to see good in everything - does get difficult sometimes. 🇪🇺 🇫🇷⚜️
Walked over 20000 steps yesterday in London. Met some lovely friendly people on the way round, had a great pub lunch and visited an ancient church crypt in Greenwich - bizarre but interesting. Never let anyone dismiss London as not being a fantastic city.
Lavatera was my late Mum’s favourite plant - this is one of them in my garden, full of beautiful pink flowers.
It’s lovely - kept going into the fridge sneaking a spoonful at a time for days!!!
Another year older - birthday celebrations done for another year. Great day in London yesterday with my family. It’s a privilege to get older. Just received news that my lovely neighbour has passed away - enjoy every day while you can x
Quick trip back to Yorkshire this weekend. Great walks - enjoyed seeing our oldest friends. Went to Northern Soul night - brilliant to be dancing again to great music. Catching up with sleep this week! Gotta keep on keeping on! #YorkshireDales #NorthernSoul
Yes - it’s a JL Linear medium 2-seater sofa bed. Have found the details for you. Price depends on which material/colour chosen
Just managed to get the washing in before the rain came down. Not keen on rain but I can see a lovely rainbow now 🌈
Beautiful blue sky here in South East England - getting set up for the warmer weather.
Got the recipe for fritters off the internet - not what I remember eating in Spain recently though. May need to work on these.
My first attempt at a Spanish Tortilla - many thanks to Clare Price-Jones for the recipe. Can’t wait to eat it. @clucksky.bsky.social
Homeward bound after three glorious weeks in Spain. 🇪🇸 Look forward to the next travels later this year - La France 🇫🇷
If I ever take up doing Lego again, this would be ideal for me.
This was the beer I had today - you might like to get some new beer glasses after seeing the photo!
Great day out. Visited Marbella and Puerto Banus - two places to never visit again. Mijas Pueblo was the next stop which was lovely. Visited the CAC museum and saw artwork by Picasso, Dali and Kurt Ard and were handed a glass of the local dessert wine to try. Followed by lunch.
Windy day here in Malaga but had a lovely lunch at El Pimpi. The food was great and the restaurant was buzzing.
Lovely day here - walked around 10 miles already today - mainly downhill thank goodness. Hope you’re all having a good day too.
Little bit breezy here in Spain today but still lovely blue skies. Better weather on its way.
