Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Tonight’s walk. Sheep were really noisy. Anyone would think they were being murdered. Actually, thinking about it, maybe they were. Their lambs might have been taken away 😭 I did have a very delicious piece of lamb from the farm shop the other day 🙈 250
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Today’s haul. Starting to get a bit sick of courgettes though… 040
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Today’s walk. Heather now in full bloom so definitely a dry, late summer vibe. 160
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 09/08/2026I accidentally called my mother yesterday. Is it wrong of me not to tell her I didn’t do it on purpose so she thinks I did actually want to talk to her?? 280
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 07/08/2026I know there’s another heatwave coming next week but I had a nice man come today to give me wood. So I think we’re almost prepared enough for winter now… 250
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Today’s walk and picnic in the “proper” dales - my secret favourite one in fact. River was dry 😔 390
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Today’s morning walk at the parents. Train home now. 060
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 24/07/2026At the parents tonight so of course the wine comes out at 5:30. Not that I’m complaining too much. Happy Friday! 180
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Had a long weekend in the Lake District at the weekend. Here’s a few random pics. 1130
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 08/07/2026Copilot just abbreviated my name to “Rich”. The absolute cheek of it 😤 140
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 08/07/20269am dentist appointment. Naturally I’ve set off far too early thinking there would be loads of traffic and…. there was none… At least it’s warm and sunny, even in Yorkshire. 160
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 04/07/2026I would have expected better from The Times. One of my bugbears. 070
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 03/07/2026It’s the weekend. It’s still summer. Today’s walk. 😊 150
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 02/07/2026Bright and breezy walk from the station to the office along the canal today. Amazing how a city centre can sustain these creatures. There was also a lady jogger saying good morning to everyone she ran past which dementia brightens the day even more. 1110
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 30/06/2026Today’s warm and humid walk. Got back just in time as the heavens opened. 070
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 27/06/2026Complimentary night in a posh hotel. Fortunately for you I have spared you photos of me in the sauna and hot tub. Dinner time now. 370
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 24/06/2026Very hot and very sweaty walk today. Farmers making hay while the sun shines. A very rare occurrence in Yorkshire. 150
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 22/06/2026Forgot to post yesterday’s walk. Almost into Lancashire 😱 060
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Tonight’s walk. Curlews were noisy; not sure what I’d done to upset them. 170
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 16/06/2026Today’s lunchtime walk via the late postbox to get the Father’s Day card in the post. Probably still too late 🙄 050
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 14/06/2026A gentle stroll today as I had Him Indoors with me. Swinging past the farm shop to get some goodies. 080
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 12/06/2026Finished the last of my Easter Eggs this afternoon 😋 030
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 10/06/2026Edinburgh office again this week so limited walks. Here are some photos as I speed through Northumberland on the train home. 150
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 07/06/2026Today’s walk including a very rare selfie of my ugly mug. 1110
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Today’s walk was supposed to be just a quick one between downpours but it stayed dry and I got carried away and walked miles. I of course was dressed for winter 😰 The sun even came out for the last part! Him Indoors hardly noticed I’d gone 🙄 Could have been lying in a ditch. 1110
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Today’s end of the week walk. Far too many office days this week so few posts this week. I could always keep you up to date on the swan babies on the canal outside work. 🦢 140
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 26/05/2026Early morning walk while it’s trying to be a bit cooler. 170
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 24/05/2026After the (personal) events of last night, I feel the need to share this. Credit Denis Lushch 030
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 21/05/2026Back to Spring thankfully for today’s walk. Love the bright colours round here in May and June, the meadows full of flowers. August is nice when the heather is flowering purple but August means the summer is nearly over and that makes me sad. 280
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 06/05/2026“Dance like no one is watching”. Think Cunard should pay me for keeping their dance floors going. 010
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Couple of days rail trip. Not sure who thought it was a good idea for a 6amBST/7amCET train…. 🥱 280
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 29/04/2026In Edinburgh office again this week so not many chances for walks. Here is a view from a treadmill in the hotel gym instead. Be thankful I have spared you a photo of me ON the treadmill…. 260
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 25/04/2026This afternoon’s walk. The theme today was snakes, though rather ironically, the slow worm was too quick to get a photo. And yes, I know they are technically legless lizards rather than snakes🦎🍸 280
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 24/04/2026Today’s early evening walk. It was BOILING! I sat on my pontification rock for the first time this year where I sit and Breathe and Just Be. Despite what some of you think, I can slow down and stop occasionally. 290
Richard @rainbowrichard.bsky.social · 23/04/2026Today’s lunchtime walk. Lovely and sunny but a bit nippy still. 140
