  • Place – QOTD – Favourite

    What is your favorite place to go in your city? On the outskirts of Greater Manchester is a city called Stockport. At night, if you head to the hills, you can see the whole of Manchester in one shot. Well, almost. This shot is taken from my car during one of the many trips to…

  • QOTD

    A picture paints a thousand words.

  • Crisis.

  • Moon cheese QOTD

    Moon cheese. If the moon were made out of cheese, I would funnel all my millions into a ticket to fly there. The endless possibilities of a moon made of cheese would be immense. I wonder what it would taste like. Probably chalky, which definitely would be a bad thing. Investing all that money to…

  • Food, glorious food QOTD

I know many will see it as an easy answer, but I genuinely feel pride when think of the three most annoying, most fabulous kids. From one who reinvents cooking with random TikTok…

  • Elvis all the way

    Elvis kept me company from 6 pm until now. I was messing about with Spotify and trying to distract myself (which has worked, to be fair), so I fancied something different tonight, so I have had Elvis on for six hours. We laughed, we sang, and no, I’m not sat with him, but in spirit.…
