yoko,todmorden fish, doggerland & turkish bath.....
I'm as cynical as the next bloke.
But I must say I was really 'moved' in Manchester on Thursday .
We attended Yoko Ono's "Bell For Peace' in Manchester Cathedral Garden. Just yards from the Arena Bombings.
Thousands of us people stood together singing "Give Peace A Chance"
It might be 'hippy shit' But it's better than 'Boris Shit' or 'Tommy Robinson shit' or 'Nigel Farage shit' .Non?
So ,here are some (infact most) of my photos from the past 7 days.
If you cant be arsed sitting thru this slideshow, click here..... https://zimnoch.smugmug.com/Yokotodmorden-fish-doggerland-turkish-bath/

and wrap it up in a sailor’s knot
Even from her "grave", Theresa May continues to poison the well!
I voted Labour & still support Jeremy Corbyn 100%
I have dear friends (usually Labour voters) who voted for both The Brexit Party and Liberal Democrats last Thursday.
Be careful what you wish for my friends..............dont forget Europe's drift to the right (e.g. Le Penn).Ironically, given this was a 'European Election', nobody on the telly has once mentoned "Europe"!

it was Cathy's Birthday yesterday
Lots of pressies & phonecalls.
see all the day's photos here
This week ,I've been a little pissed off with the new BBC /HBO Drama "Gentleman Jack" starring Suranna Jones. Now, its (yet another) chance to see Halifax on TV. Great!
But is Anne Lister such a great "Icon"? She introduced coal mining to Shibden. She sent girls as young as 8 to work 10 hours shifts underground.
'Might be worth you reading this report of how she abused the poor people of Halifax.
Patience Kershaw reported "."sometimes the miners beat me if i am not fast enough:
I push carts for 11 miles a day. my life is terrible..."
Not Very Sexy Halifax!
