Memory jogged by a brief yet energising conversation with a young person wearing a (probably DiY) customised, Pink Floyd-themed denim jacket. I found myself talking up Live at Pompeii. If I recall correctly I bought this on VHS from Our Price in c. 1994

An upping of the ante in the dramatic skies quotient this evening. Weardale. The water was warm. #swimming #CountyDurham

Back in my natural habitat, after a busy few weeks. Here we have an assembled mass of wild carrot, clouds scudding across a bright August sky, a particularly cheerful example of field scabious, followed by a general DH7 vista #lovewhereyoulive #DH7 #walking

So this arrived in the post today! I’m very much looking forward to judging the Pictorial Competition (thanks - @MD_Briggs !) & to experiencing the show itself, a rural tradition we do particularly well in the NE. Blanchland is also home to the magnificent @Lord_Crewe_Arms

First ever foray into en plein air landscape painting. Massive thanks to @Luke_McTaggart for making this happen and being so brilliantly supportive. I have a lot to learn but it was great to make a start. #lovewhereyoulive #Amble @TheMaltings

Sometimes it’s as fun and as fascinating to look down as it is to look up! Chester-le-Street has come up roses this evening with a little potted history of our region’s proud industrial heritage, in the format of drain/ infrastructure covers… #walking #lovewhereyoulive

Tune in to @BBCRadio3 right now for David Bowie rather brilliantly narrating Prokofiev’s Peter and the Woof. The very essence of a perfect Sunday afternoon! @SaraMohrPietsch #musicmap.

Yesterday’s evening walk. Such beautiful light, and a stillness that we haven’t quite managed to replicate today! Now is most definitely the time for a little buttercup cheer and joy #DH7 #walking #lovewhereyoulive #songthrush

May. Cow parsley season. A delight to behold on a blustery day; in fact any day in May. #DH7 #lovewhereyoulive #walking
