"You have to see it from both sides of the telescope". Rather a disappointing crop of gibberish from Sky News this morning. I was looking forward to "It's a two-horse argument,"; "You're pushing against a closed door"; "Anti ballistic missiles" or something like that. Poor.

Knackered after a day of deep-cleaning my bedroom. Now time for a reasonably healthy tea.

I was going to cook myself a breakfast at 10am, but I got side-tracked, then I strolled out for a morning coffee. Back home now. Better late than never!

I think it was Falstaff in Shakespeare's Henry IV Part I, who said: "Pizza is the better part of valour". No? Well he'd obviously never been to Brewery Wharf Tavern in Leeds.

Infamy! Infamy! Called into Waterstone's on the way back from my morning walk, but Alice Roberts's book "The Goddess Queen" hasn't arrived yet. Consoling myself with a coffee and a strawberry donut from Doh'Hut. Queen Cleo would have understood. #Leeds

Bring it on! #Leeds #Eclipse

Bob Peters @bobofleeds.bsky.social · 12/08/2026
All together now: 🎶 Pretty woman, Walkin' down the street ... 🎶 Getting my gear together for this evening's partial eclipse, as seen from Leeds, UK. Ideally I'd like to get the eclipsed sun in with a silhouette of Bridgewater Place or Candle House, but it'd be tricky. I might be lucky though.

Bob Peters @bobofleeds.bsky.social · 12/08/2026
Next time you're feeling stupid, just remember there are people who try on eclipse glasses in the pub, and don't understand why they can't see anything.

A very dry-looking Hyde Park, #Leeds, this morning. The trees are doing OK (no leaf-drop apparent yet) but the grass isn't faring well. #Heatwave

My simple home-cooked breakfast: Scrambled eggs (eggs, butter, cream, dried oregano, salt, pepper) on toast with grilled tomatoes (tomatoes, garlic salt). Decorated with flat leaf parsley and washed-down with a mug of Yorkshire tea.

Today’s lunch: a home-made burger with a recipe from the Bob’s Burgers Burger Book (modified). A beef burger topped with caramelised onions, Manchego cheese, and a generous helping of Tomato & Chilli Chutney. Served with fries and a glass of Old Speckled Hen pale ale.

I wasn't going to bother photographing my retro 1970s-style Prawn Cocktail, but it looked so nice I went and grabbed a camera.

I was recently asked "what are your best feelings?" Well, the arrival of a parcel containing new Calvins is definitely on the list.

A great night out last night, but I'm definitely in need of my bacon & egg butty now!

Throwback Thursday #TBT. His Holiness the Dalai Lama in Leeds in June 2012. I had to stand in the rain for 2 hours to get this shot - well worth it in the end ☺️

An advantage of being uninterested in the footy is that I can take photos of folks who are interested in it.

Now I feel old! the Little Johnny and Mary who raised their hands and said "Please Miss" in school in countless jokes are now in their late 70s. Where did all the years go, eh?
