I do believe it is Global International no Facebook Day today. I certainly joined a group, just wondering if I got the right day. Managed to remember not to log onto Facebook, hoorah!

Escape From Facebook (explaining a former facebook status by using 3 dimensions)

Trying to explain a joke....

Desperate Photoblogging (part four?)

Perhaps now is not the time to rant about noise pollution….

For a while alas the connection lead for my Kodak Easyshare C1013 was missing, managed to find it in very partial tidy up of parts of my flat (aka The Swamp). So some experimental pics

Here is a supermarket trolley from Tesco that has “conked out/bought the farm”

show some compassion!

Bloody Students! Respect though Kirkstall Breweries is a long way from Tesco.

well it mite not have been students lol

And this would make a wonderful Absolutely Northern! L S Lowry. Like Ebbw Vale in the Herbert Art Gallery and Museum Coventry where I was briefly a volunteer).

a passion for art!

And this is me.

Facebook exercises part 2, fun with the MP3 player

for those of you not on Facebook (yes it sucks but alas a channel of communication that I am rather dependent on in a world full of poor communication....)

Shameful and shameless photoblogging with maybe a bit more.. (part three in what may or may not be an occasional series….)

No Comment….

spiked!

Profile….

take that!

Here in Leeds we have the Institute of Northern Studies at Leeds Met, a splendid firm indeed! Went to one of the public lectures. Good to see corporate advertising.

Aye tell them that their fees were well spent! hehehe

Said lecture was on public art, and the Leeds Brick Man versus The Angel of The North or the Angel of the North versus the Leeds Brick Man. Down on the compost heap of England the Angel of The South is under construction. It will be bigger because they feel a certain need down in the Sarf to overcompensate of course.

I do wonder however about the Black Dyke Band. Aren’t any of them Bruvvas? They all seem white…

I am sure they are all dykes of course

Then up the road to another University.

Solidarity!

It’s that time of the month.

I am not mad enough to write on my blog how mad things are at the moment.

Ok I am just playing with my camera

This Erection

Eligo In Suma Pontifico

Ok crap latin…

Hasta La Victoria Siempre!/Meet The New Boss

but is it art?

A long and heroic pilgrimage to Kirkstall Abbey.

Some quick photoblogging. Jess not appearing as she is shy or I think she said she was… Oh well she can upload to her travel blog. Hi Jess!

Inside the Abbey Steeplehouse.

wonder if the Cistercians want it back…

Looking up! Oh I do like this shot…

very ruined

More of the same I think.

Phuny olde world

The lighting effects I am particularly pleased with…

Bluebell the master photographer

The Cloister

great for going round in circles or indeed squares

From the Cloister

Photobucket

And when you know where to look…..

A familiar landmark….

Really must learn how to blog in a hurry….

Down on the Farmers Market

In Britain if you want to buy a farmer you go to a farmers market. If you want to buy a farmers market you go to a farmers market market. And if you want to buy a farmers market market you're being silly
