It was so good to be back in Lincoln for a weekend after missing it last year. We love Lincoln, it's such a beautiful city.
Saturday evening was just a fantastic evening! We got glammed up and went out looking for somewhere to eat - more difficult than normal because of booking restrictions. But we found a nice Vietnamese place.
After that we walked up steep hill - it is very very steep! - in our heels! That was a first and it actually wasn't too bad - much more difficult coming down, ha ha! And at the top we met a lovely group of girls.
The we went off to The Scene for the evening - it was lovely to be back there. First time we had heard loud music in a public place since pre-pandemic too so it was almost like the old days, although we did have to stay seated at our table.
Heading back to the hotel after a fantastic day and night.

Seems I had a very twitchy shutter button finger this night back in January - I took loads of photos!
Trying out a new (to me) long sleeved velvet dress, quite a classy looking dress, if I do say so myself!
Not entirely sure about it. It shows off my figue in a very flattering way, which I love, but I'm not totally sold on the neckline.

We had a 5 day break away in Newcastle at Easter! It was fantastic. We always love Newcastle and it certainly didn't disappoint!
First night out we went to a bar below the hotel called Ovens and Shakers where we had a cocktail (I had a mocktail, non-alcoholic). On the alcoholic cocktails it's 2 for the price of 1 so Gemma had 2!
Then we went on to Time Square where there was a pop-up bar in the square itself which was amazing! And we got vouchers for free drinks too!
Afterwards we went on to The Bank which was pretty empty at the time, but we got to meet the lovely drag queen Miss Dixie Swallows (lol) who also DJs in Rusty's, our fave Newcastle bar.
After The Bank we went to Rusty's to finish the night off where we met a group of lovely girls who had spotted us earlier at the Central Park outisde bar.
A fantastic night!
In Rusty's with the girls who had spotted us earlier/

Red-capped Robin
Scientific Name: Petroica goodenovii
Description: The male Red-capped Robin is black above and white below with a distinctive scarlet-red cap, white shoulders, and a red breast that contrasts strongly with a black throat. The black wing is barred white and the tail is black with white edges. Females are quite different in appearance: grey-brown above and off-white below, with a reddish cap, brown-black wings barred buff to white, and some have faint red on the breast. Young birds are similar to females but are streaked white above, have an pale buff wing bar and their breast and sides are streaked or mottled dark-brown.
Similar species: The Red-capped Robin is the smallest red robin. It can be distinguished from other red robins by the unique red cap in the male, and by the dull red cap in the female. Males are similar to the Crimson Chat, Epthianura tricolor, but this species has a white throat, a white eye, is not as plump and lacks the white wing streak.
Distribution: The Red-capped Robin is found from Queensland (rarely above latitude 20ðS), through New South Wales, mainly west of the Great Dividing Range, to Victoria and South Australia. Also found in Western Australia in inland regions north to the Pilbara region, rarely being seen on south coast or far south-west. An isolated population occurs on Rottnest Island. Widespread in Northern Territory south of latitude 20ðS. The Red-capped Robin will visit areas along the east coast during droughts.
Habitat: The Red-capped Robin is found in most inland habitats that have tall trees or shrubs, such as eucalypt, acacia and cypress pine woodlands. It is mainly found in the arid and semi-arid zones, south of the Tropics, with some extension into coastal regions. The species is seen on farms with scattered trees, as well as vineyards and orchards. It is only occasionally reported in gardens.
Seasonal movements: Partial seasonal migrant, moving to more open areas in winter, usually in south of range.
Feeding: The Red-capped Robin feeds on insects and other invertebrates. It forages on the ground or in low vegetation, and will often perch on a stump or fallen branch, darting down to take insects from the ground. Can be seen in mixed feeding flocks with other small insect-eating birds such as Willie Wagtails, Rufous Whistlers and Black-faced Woodswallows.
Breeding: Red-capped Robins breed in pairs within a breeding territory established and defended by the male. The male sings from perches around the boundary of the territory to deter other Red-capped Robins and also other robin species, such as the Scarlet Robin, P. multicolor. The female chooses a nest site in a tree-fork and builds an open, cup-shaped nest of bark, grass, and rootlets, bound together with spider web, lined with soft materials and often camoflaged with lichen, bark and mosses. The male feeds the female during nest-building and incubation. The female incubates the eggs alone and both sexes feed the young. Once the young have fledged, they may remain in their parents' territories for up to one and a half months before dispersing. Nests may be parasitised by cuckoos. Predators of nestlings include the Grey Shrike-thrush, Colluricincla harmonica, and the Grey Butcherbird, Craticus torquatus.
Research by the Australian Museum (Major et al., 1999) has shown that male Red-capped Robin density is much lower in small, linear bushland remnants than in large non-linear remnants. The small remnants represented a higher risk of predation, making them much less suitable as breeding habitat.
Calls: Males sing with characteristic dry, repeated trill: 'dit-dit-drr-it'. Both sexes have a 'tick' call.
Average size: 12cm
Average weight: 9g
Breeding season: June to January
Clutch Size: Two or three; occasionally one, rarely four.
Incubation: 13 days
Nestling Period: 14 days

Hallowe;en weekend Gemma came to Hull for a visit and on the Friday I put on my kinda goth outift and we went to Propaganda to see our friend Twiggy. We hadn't seen her since she left the Star earlier in the year so it was lovely to have a catch up.

Saint Sophia provoked first the martyrdom of her three daughters "Faith", "Hope" and "Love" and then her own.
These holy Martyrs dwelt in Italy in the reign of Hadrian (117-138). When in Rome the Emperor sent soldiers to bring them before him. He was amazed how steadfast in the faith Sophia’s daughters were.
Faith, twelve years old, was brought in first. She dismissed the tyrant’s flatteries. The Emperor had her stripped, mercilessly beaten and her breasts torn off, whence milk not blood flowed forth. The other tortures she endured were to no avail, for she was protected by the power of God. When, at last, they came to strike off her head, Sophia encouraged her to accept with joy the death that would unite her to Christ.
Hope, ten years old, was brought in next. Confessing Christ as steadfastly as her sister, she was beaten and cast into a raging furnace, but its fire went out on touching her. After many other tortures, she too died by the sword, giving thanks to God.
Love, the third sister, was then summoned before the angry Emperor. She was nine years old but of the same steadfast mind as her sisters. She was hung on a gallows and chained so tightly that her limbs were broken by the bonds. She was then thrown into a furnace, from which she was delivered by an angel, and finally, beheaded. Sophia rejoiced in spirit to see her daughters so gloriously making their way to the abodes of the righteous but, overwhelmed by earthly sorrow, she gave back her soul to God a few days later at their tomb.

St. Stephen's Cathedral (Stephansdom) is the most important Catholic Church in Vienna. It has a multi-colored tile roof with a diamond pattern and two tall towers. It is the most recognizable symbol of the city.
The church was dedicated to St. Stephen, who was also the patron of the bishop’s cathedral in Passau. The church was oriented toward the sunrise on his feast day of 26 December, as the position stood in the year that construction began.

January LFF - I didn't know it at the time, but this was my last Leeds First Friday for a few months. I had some health issues which kept me away in February and March, and then had my surgery, so I won't be making it back to Leeds until June.
Saturday night was a surprisingly sociable night, bumping into all sorts of lovely people as we went round the bars.
After a delicious tea at Pieminister, we started in The End then on to Queens Court where we bumped into one of the Angels (Mollie) and her friends on a night out. We also bumped into Norma and Sabrina, what a lovely happy couple they are!
After that we went to Smokestack and bumped into another group of girls who had stayed for the Saturday - Jennifer, Ashley and Kirsty - then on to the Pack Horse for a final drink before heading back to the hotel. A great night!

I made this image a few years ago now. I have since sold the flash units that I modified.
The only visible light in this image is coming from the Cannabis. I used 2 UV modified flash units that emit no light on the visible spectrum. The light is a by product of the UV called Fluorescence.
Ultraviolet Induced Visible Fluorescence or UVIVF for short is genre of Photography that is not a common one but was a lot of fun to explore.
I was approached by someone that knew I was doing this and we both agreed that it would be interesting to see the end result.
I am not against this drug. I have used CBD oil for chronic pain recently. It has its place.
Have a nice day
