2024: In Pictures

Index

31 August 2024: Lucy's Wedding
We got smartened up and went to Morpeth to celebrate Lucy's wedding to Graeme.

30 August 2024: Tiny Toon
This tiny replica of Newcastle is pretty cute but that metro doesn't look delayed so I don't think it's very realistic.

29 August 2024: Puffy Clouds
I'm sure there's a proper name for these clouds but I just call them puffy.

28 August 2024: Smart Cookie
Emmett is officially the smart cookie in the house after doing really well in his GCSEs.

27 August 2024: Flower Cafe
I must've passed this before but it's never really registered until now. They've certainly got the flower bit covered.

26 August 2024: Trophy
A pink trophy spray painted on a bridge. My bank holidays are truly thrilling these days.

25 August 2024: Dad's Doodles
While going through some of my old stuff at Mam's, I found these doodles that Dad did while making notes on a course.

24 August 2024: Smiling Heart
Nothing catches my eye quite like a pretty sticker.

23 August 2024: Grotty Day
An absolutely grim start to an August day!

22 August 2024: McDonald's
I'm not sure which McDonald's character this is. I find it quite sinister, to be entirely honest.

21 August 2024: Happiness
I can't remember what shop window this is, but it's a nice message.

20 August 2024: Thread of Knowledge
Wise words.

19 August 2024: Located
I poured a drink then couldn't remember where I'd put it. Eventually I discovered it on top of the wardrobe. I have no idea why.

18 August 2024: Sylvanian Families
We celebrated Skye's 2nd birthday and I had fun playing with her Sylvanian familes.

17 August 2024: Newcastle 1-0 Southampton
Newcastle started the season off with a win.

16 August 2024: Stack
This new complex has recently opened and is getting pretty busy... just not at this time of day.

15 August 2024: Civic Centre
The garden of St Thomas Church and the Civic Centre looked quite pleasant this morning.

14 August 2024: United
There have been recent protests in various cities but Newcastle has been fairly good at remaining united.

13 August 2024: Sparks Joy
I think it was an advert for an energy drink. I don't recall it sparking a great deal of joy.

12 August 2024: Snack
I was pleased to remember that these were in the fridge as they were a perfect morning snack.

11 August 2024: Presiding Officer
Not what I expected to be described as at an AA meeting.

10 August 2024: Sela Cup
We went to the pre-season Sela Cup, which featured Newcastle Women beating AC Milan on penalties followed by the men's team beating Brest.

9 August 2024: White Shirt
Another of the new Newcastle shirts for this season. I quite like it but it's never a good idea for me to buy white clothes.

8 August 2024: Slow Water
The water out of this tap is cold and delicious but trickles out extremely slowly.

7 August 2024: White Sox
My Chicago White Sox t-shirt doesn't fit me anymore but it's just about right for Steve Austin.

6 August 2024: Clay Whale
I made this in year 8. I don't think I could manage it now.

5 August 2024: Pinky
I've been reunited with my first ever teddy, Pinky. We have a lot to catch up on.

4 August 2024: Spooky
When I caught a glimpse of this out of the corner of my eye I was glad it was daylight.

3 August 2024: Pressure
No pressure, no diamonds.

2 August 2024: Cookies
The Teso white chocolate and raspberry cookies are my favourite. I tried these today and while they're ok, they don't come close.

1 August 2024: Emma's Wedding
We returned to the Registry Office to celebrate the wedding of Emma and Aabid.
