I'm a runner, cyclist, listener, reader, traveller, maybe even a thinker... but I'm not so convinced about my creative side. So, as well as sharing those apposite and interesting things I happen to stumble across, I use this little space to encourage myself to share some of my scribblings, my photos and my videos.

I do rather like the sound of this.
He has long been compared with Eric Morecambe – particularly in the spectacles department – so it seems fitting that Jim Moir, better known as Vic Reeves, has been cast in the BBC’s new drama about Morecambe and Wise.
But Moir will not play Morecambe in the feature-length BBC2 drama, instead taking the role of Eric’s father George, while Victoria Wood – who also conceived the project – appears as his pushy mother Sadie.
Morecambe & Wise will chart the pair’s rise from children’s variety performers to much-loved television stars, with the story starting in 1930 and running until 1954 – the year of Running Wild, Morecambe and Wise’s first television series.
