Sunderland, up in North East England. Fond of photography, paddle boarding, mountain biking and left-wing politics. My social circle is a dot. Occasionally a bit odd. Usually a lot odd. 🌈. I mostly don't understand people. Unlikely to participate.

It's like he's skipped Blair's first term of hope and change, went straight to the sell-out phase. Did not pass go, did not collect voter support. I was a Tory out at any cost. I don't regret that, but ye gods. I'm rethinking it. Green or (as yet unnamed) Your Party next time. No tactical voting.

Rayner has proven to be one of the most disappointing ministers. I'm bereft I didn't see it. Allotments are hugely important, a community space, cheap as chips for just a brief relief from the shit of gov control. An escape. Take every bit of remaining joy from us, you callous sell-out.

Got a bit of a sniffle, cold, man-flu? This man was literally dying. Yet produced the same quality song craft and performance as ever. www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3pt...

Trying to recall the poem about the wild children. It'll come to me.
