Dad. Husband. Dog wrangler. Planning Silk at Kings Chambers. Occasional punster. Living with bowel cancer, which I'm hoping will f*** off. Views are entirely my own, which should be pretty clear from the nonsense I spout 99% of the time.

If Northumberland floats your boat (it does mine), here's a (slightly) filtered view of Bamburgh Castle.

This is what Chat GTP considers a "planning barrister working from home" to look like. Seems reasonable.

Software company after a slice of a the legal dictation market. [Screenshot from promo] A *Barrister*, flushed with success uses the said software to send an email: "I had a successful hearing today. Please prepare a fee note to be rendered next week." It's just everything ......

Here's Saturday's line up. I'd heard of 17 acts, largely "thanks" to 20: 20: "DAD! DAD! HAVE YOU HEARD THE LATEST FROM HYBRID MINDS!? DAD? DAD? DAD?" Dad: [thinks] "You're drowning out Coldplay, the perfect brain food to prepare an Opinion re: the Town and Country Planning (EIA) Regulations 2017".

5/ Undaunted and only a matter of days after my recent discharge from hospital they completed all Three Peaks today (four if we count January) in perfect hiking weather.

4/ Unfortunately the Yorkshire weather in January didn't play ball (exhibit A below) and they were forced to turn back in atrocitious conditions. Their good sense in knowing when to admit defeat is one of myriad reasons that they make my heart burst every day.

Reminds me of the little Northumbrian monkeys who, with an admirable economy of effort, provoked many a giggle & maybe even a cymbal tinkle.

My younger brother, David, sent me this homework qn set for his daughter. D is a supportive, brilliant and amazing sibling but my status as first born surely justifies an extra £2.10 a week. PS - David would have saved /invested wisely. I would've tried in vain to complete a Panini sticker album.

Unfortunately Maple has had to settle for a Cornish apartment in her name rather than an entire settlement.

If you'd swivelled around 180° some 208 years ago, you might have stumbled upon a certain JMW Turner producing preparatory sketches of the Crook o' Lune for this idyllic pastoral scene.
