Love on the Beach at Blyth

17 June 201213 August 2016 The Girl Behind2 Comments

Part of my 366 Project. I took this picture on the beach at Blyth. We were there a couple of weeks ago, and it was pretty cold and windy. It seems quite a bleak place, but then there are lots and lots of benches with bits of poetry and songs and quotations on them. And… Continue reading Love on the Beach at Blyth

I’ve not done much in the way of creativity this past week, but I’ve been keeping entertained with twitter and facebook.

The wonderful Grimethorpe Colliery Band, playing A Fistful of Dollars in a very blustery open air concert at Cannon Hall Farm in Barnsley on Sunday. (They do all have legs – and very shiny shoes – but I had a lady in front of me with a bright green rainhood on and I’ve had to… Continue reading Music (117 of 365)

Guilty Pleasures

We all have them, don’t we? Those little things that we love to have in our lives – even though we know that they’re not really cool (I guess by that definition, most of my life would be a guilty pleasure)… Salad Cream I’m not sure whether this is even widely known any more, or… Continue reading Guilty Pleasures
