Sunrise on the winter solstice

After today summer is on the way

Minus 11 in Liverpool...let's be careful out there

UK is in the grip of a ridulous freeze at the moment. Never seen it quite thid cold before

-2, freezing fog, black ice. Lets be careful out there

Liverpool has survived the huge amounts of snow dumped on most of the UK but is now suffering a real sting in the tail. What little snow we had has turned to black ice and freezing fog is sitting atop us. The roads and pavements are like a skating rink.

The Swan, Led Zeppelin playing, real ale flowing, populated almost entirely by drunk santas

One of the real ale pubs in Liverpool with the best rock/metal jukebox. Love, love, love this pib to bits

Goodbye old friend

Taking my little 52 plate Ford Fiesta LX to the dealers today...quite sad if I'm honest. Ace car that. Over 100,000 miles we did together.
