I always forget how much time the details take.

40 days of positivity in photos for #Lent. Day… 18? Is it? Dunno.

We’ve finished the mixing. This is my little mix assistant expressing his desire for more snare top in the mix.

Apparently I have a typo. 40 days!

49 days of positivity in photos. Day 17. I think.

I’ve just put the finishing touches to the last two tracks for the EP we’re launching on the 28th. As long as the feedback from the others is positive, we’re ready to press the CDs!

40 days of positivity in photos for Lent. Day…16?

Yesterday was so busy hosting the Pride in Place event thatbi didn’t get chance to put the photo up.

This is Bailey running the quiz at the social part of the evening. It was a lot of fun.

This is a good analogy. Very useful in carefully controlled settings for specific usages, but unfortunately being widely inserted into everything and used without training or PPE and poisoning a lot of things and people and we’re going to pay a tonne of money to remove it safely in the future

40 days of positivity in photos. #lent day…. Dunno. 14?

One day you start playing in church with the teen who knows one beat. Then you blink and she’s a fully fledged drummer and you are in a band.

40 days of positivity in Protos. #Lent day 14?

Writing new songs with @metanoiauk.bsky.social

Here are the few other ingredients.

I cooked ramen and a whole chilli fell in the bowl just as Ruth came into the kitchen. She thought it needed a few different ingredients.

Snapped this quickly during the service. Band which spans a few decades. All community together. And having fun. 🥁

Walking into the wilderness of Lent once more at @holynativity.bsky.social. I wonder what @jobm.bsky.social is going to bring to the sermon on a day in which the wilderness Jesus walked is filled with missiles and bombs.

40 days of positivity in photos. #Lent Day… erm… 10?

Out with Ruth’s work friends. I was handed a drink with vegetation in it.

Am I the only person on earth who thinks people are reading too much into a single by-election?

Didn’t think I’d hear War Pigs quoted in Shakespeare.

40 days of positivity. Day 9 of #lent?

Every Christmas/Birthday present I buy mum now she’s on her own is for something cultured where we get to spend time together. She loves Shakespeare and all that cultured stuff. And I’m starting to understand it too.

Sounds like Pratchett.

Haven’t seen A Midsummer Night’s Dream since GCSE drama. Can’t say I understood it. But elderly, wise and cultured Robb* may have a hope this time.

*Reader understand, this is not that Robb.

It has been a really busy but throughly positive week. Lots of great stuff going on in our wider community. The church community is walking our way into the wilderness using devotionals from Engage. And I’ve just arrived at the playhouse with Mum for A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

40 days of positive stuff in photos. Day 8. #Lent

Long drive to Teesside to pick mum up. Doorstep paparazzi. She has a fabulously red coat!

I’ve never even heard of it. Sorry.

40 days of positivity in photos. #Lent. Day 6?

I’m really fortunate to have wonderful musical instruments. Just recorded a final acoustic guitar part for @robbandruth.bsky.social Stronghold EP. We’ve booked an album launch party for 28th March at @holynativity.bsky.social because deadline fear!

I’m sitting on a cushion feeling very relaxed surrounded by people from the community waiting for some flute and singing to start. Taizé init.

@holynativity.bsky.social

What does this button do?

40 days of positivity in photos. Day 5. I think.

The sun shining as I arrive at @holynativity.bsky.social. The place I call home.

40 days of positive stuff in photos. Day 4.

This is my band. We’re back out there after three months off for health stuff! Woot!

Sadly I have no cash. Or curate.

40 Days of Positivity in Photo. Day 3

I love cooking. Time passses so quick whilst I’m remembering the recipe and faffing with ingredients. Tonight’s cassoulet - a before picture. Stuck it in the oven a few hours ago.

FYI: I have the same rules for measuring wine in recipes as I do garlic.

40 days of positivity. Day two, the photo.

This is my cat. There are many like him, but this one is mine. My cat is my best friend. He is my life.

He’s been quite ill for the last month but now he’s a constant munching machine. So rejoice and be glad!
