I asked some friends of mine to do a few lines of my poem ‘Ode To Square Chapel’ in support of my quest to help #SaveSquareChapelArts in Halifax. Without hesitation… they all chipped in. 🙌 It’s what friends are for. Please re-post if you enjoy! x

I love Manchester so much

I'm gathering good roasts for a thing....what are the best clean/not punching down ones you know? Or your kids know? Kids often know best on these matters. Every joker who replies with a picture of some roast lamb will be stopped. Perhaps not today. But one day. I mean insults and you know that.

This space is amazing, a real jewel for the town. It could be such an asset for the community if it was managed correctly.

I just think that risking your life at a moment's notice to save people you've never met in exchange for no money is a better expression of patriotism than dressing up like a Poundshop paramilitary and intimidating families with kids trying to get onto a ferry.

I used to love the smell, the garage was a local car repair place owned by an old man and his even older dad. Haven't thought about them in decades!

I'm on the door at #Queerfest our annual fundraiser for #CalderdalePride. We're at Darkland Brewery. Proof, if it were needed, that we absolutely can organise a piss-up in a brewery.
A picture of me sat in front of the Calderdale Pride flag. I'm wearing a Panama hat, big frame glasses and a fringe. I'm also wearing glitter freckles.
Clothes wise, I'm wearing a cute white shirt and burgundy dungarees.

Without a doubt, The Flaming Lips last night! What a show.
A photo of a stage at The Piece Hall, Halifax. The colonades of The Piece Hall are lit up in purple, while the old church spire outside the walls is lit up green and yellow.
There is a crowd of thousands in front of the stage, which has bright white lights shining out over the crowd.
Near the stage, two giant yellow balloons are batted about by the crowd.
And on stage, The Flaming Lips entertain the crowd with their excellent show.

Colourful botanical dopamine for you today: research shows that if you pause on my photos & look at the floral detail your brain will shift away from fight or flight & into rest & relaxation mode & if you find my 📷s beautiful your 🧠 will release dopamine, lifting mood & motivation #neuroscience 🌿

Agreed, if you do the same job, you should be paid the same. More countries should follow suit.

Found out yesterday that my nose isn't broken following a recent accident. And bonus points, it's actually straightened a kink I've had in it for over 20 years.

Here's a (zoomed in) image of our recent house guest. Shortly after this was taken, they hopped into a tree at the end of the wall. Really hope they're ok in this heat.

Just had an unexpected visitor. A fledgling just hopped into our dining room. Cute as a button, but we have dogs so I had to chase it out. Shut the dogs indoors before lifting the little cutie onto a wall. It hopped off into a tree so I'm hoping it's parents can come down and teach it to get home.

I'm sad that David Hockney has died, and so grateful for his work. When I was going through a rough spot, just sitting with his work at Salt's Mill was soothing.
