The intersex Progress Pride flag flies high above the ornate stone facade of Newcastle's Theatre Royal, set against a cloudy sky.
It was good to see the intersex Progress Pride flag flying above Newcastle’s Theatre Royal.
A plate of a full English breakfast, including sausage, bacon, eggs, mushrooms, and hash browns. The breakfast is presented on a white plate.
Vegans and vegetarians look away now. There are benefits to travelling for work. This is the LNER first class breakfast.
Am off to That London at the end of next week for work, so have booked myself a hotel for Friday night and a place on a Hidden Underground tour at Euston. Hotels are pretty cheap for London at the moment.
A man takes a selfie with a cityscape in the background. The photo is taken from behind a metal fence.
Bilbao, Spain, more years ago than I can remember
A man relaxes on a lounge chair, legs outstretched, with a stunning ocean view at sunrise. The golden sun reflects off the water, creating a serene and picturesque scene.

A snowy landscape with a bridge over a river. The scene captures a winter morning walk.
This was the scene as I walked to work one morning this week.
A man and a black and white cat are sitting on a couch. The man is looking at the camera.
This is Hild. She looks like butter wouldn’t melt in her mouth. Her brother would disagree
A close-up image shows a medical needle inserted into a person's arm for a blood donation procedure. The photo highlights the medical equipment and the process of donating blood.
This week was time for my regular donation of blood platelets and blood plasma. I’ll get a message in a couple of days telling me which hospital received my donation.
A man sits at an outdoor cafe table, smiling at the camera. The photo captures a relaxed moment in Valletta, Malta, with other people and buildings in the background.

The rooftop pool & terrace at my Valletta hotel
A man gives a speech at a Pride event, with a crowd gathered around. Pride flags and balloons decorate the space.
This is me giving a short speech to reiterate the enduring importance of Pride. At our Pride Breakfast before joining Northern Pride’s march through Newcastle. During the march, I ended up giving a short live interview to Pride Radio. Both were well out of my comfort zone. I need to lose some weight
A large crowd of people gather at a pride parade, waving flags and celebrating. The photo captures the vibrant atmosphere of the event.
Happy Northern Pride!
Schitt. RIP Catherine O’Hara. Your death is unacceptable.
All these profile photos are very distracting. Took the stairs to my 6th floor office this morning to try to improve fitness. Small steps (lots of them)
A scenic view of the Tyne Bridge in Newcastle, UK, at dawn. The calm river reflects the bridge and the city skyline.
Dawn over a very calm River Tyne in Newcastle, UK.
A man stands in front of a waterfall in Banff, Canada. He is holding a camera and smiling.
Banff, Canada, 2021
A scenic view of Tynemouth Priory and King Edward's Bay on a cloudy day. The historic site is perched on a cliff overlooking the beach and ocean.
It was a grey and moody day at Tynemouth yesterday, but the Priory and King Edward’s Bay looked as impressive as ever. Lucky to have this so close to home
A scenic view of Auckland harbor, featuring boats, yachts, and buildings under a clear blue sky. The photo captures the essence of a vibrant cityscape by the water.
Almost exactly 21 years ago (oof!) this was my view of Auckland harbour from my new New Zealand employer’s apartment. I stayed here for 2 weeks while finding a place to rent. Made quite a change from the home I’d just left in suburban Birmingham, UK.
A bottle of Madri beer sits on a wooden table next to an empty glass. The beer bottle is the focal point of the image.
Miscalculation in food purchases brought me to the neighbourhood cafe for a burger. Beer seemed necessary while I waited.
An aerial view of a wooden structure extending into a body of water, with a cityscape in the background. The photo captures an industrial heritage site under a cloudy sky.
A bit of industrial heritage today - Dunston coal staiths in Gateshead are a scheduled ancient monument & one of the largest wooden structures in Europe. They were open to the public today & free to those like me who live nearby. 50 years ago they’d have been busy with trains loading coal onto ships
A scenic view of Valletta, Malta, with the city skyline against a clear blue sky. The photo captures the historic architecture and the surrounding sea.
I’m already missing Malta
A scenic view of the Newcastle and Gateshead quayside, showcasing the iconic Tyne Bridge and the Gateshead Millennium Bridge. The image captures the architectural beauty of the bridges and the surrounding cityscape.

A large group of people pose for a photo at a pride event. Rainbow flags and pride flags are visible in the background.
Another photo from Northern Pride yesterday, before the rain.
