A company called Vue Skin pops up in my Facebook ads constantly. At first I thought this was a joke, and immediately headed to the comments. But no; it’s a serious ad. Will there ever be a time when women aren’t willing to make a laughing stock of themselves just because society tells them to??? 🙄
This is how we do pubs in Liverpool. The Vines on Lime Street, and the Philharmonic Dining Rooms. Both designed by architect Walter W Thomas. Always ‘look up’ when you’re walking around Liverpool!! Photos by Dave Wood.
Kids, just a quick reminder… When you’re out taking pictures of nature, never tuck your water bottle between your knees to free-up your hands 😳
A ring I bought with some money my nan left me when she died. It’s from the year she was born: 1925. And the Emeralds are because we used to watch the Wizard of Oz together every Christmas 💚
I once grabbed Justin Currie, lead singer of Del Amitri, for a selfie, not realising he was on his way to the loo. He was very polite, but did say “you’ll have to be quick” 🤣
Seriously…this place has my heart. I just can’t explain how being back here makes me feel❤️ #liverpool #merseyestuary
I'm in the throes of a crappy week. We all get 'em 😞 But then my friend texts me, saying she's just passed my house and left a treat on the doorstep, because, "sometimes, we just need someone else to make us a brew..." ❤️ Suddenly, the week doesn't feel quite so crappy. #randomactsofkindness
I have a good stretch of window sill in the kitchen that really catches the sun. I’m thinking….indoor herb garden?
Just look at his face. If that’s not true empathy, I really don’t know what is. He’s feeling it, it’s hurting him, it’s deep; and it’s why we love you, @mrrickygervais.bsky.social
