How many people these days experience the joy of a freshly cleaned typewriter?

 

This is a 1960s Scheidegger Princess-Matic. Made by Keller & Knappich in West Germany in the 1960's for the Willy Scheidegger Swiss Typing School.

 

The ribbon is brand new, hence the 'fat' lettering. It will calm down with some use.

Lady Fuchsia was one of my favorite characters.

 

over edited but they're pretty flowers.

This lovely piano was built at the Bechstein English subsidiary, and not at Berlin, around 1930 (going from the serial number on the frame). Sadly, it has not been kept in concert fettle and the keyboard and action need to be overhauled by a technician. The Ivory Act makes it illegal to sell this on, so I shall look forward to returning next year to play it again.

Notwithstanding, it was a pleasure to play.

To be fair, this door hasn't been maintained in years. But it's interesting to see how the varnish is flaking off in the sun.

Blackpool Tower is visible almost everywhere nearby.

The season moves on inexorably and the hydrangeas continue to go pink.

Time to go home again. I like how the lights change how this building appears.

I saw this interesting mobility scooter this morning.

Air fryer baked cheese, egg, tomato, with more Red Leicester on top, in a tortilla case.

Sliced tomato with house dressing.

Whole grain mustard.

 

20 minutes.

Saw this on my way to meet my friend for coffee. Made me think of old trawlers.

 

It's been an odd kind of day, but it was great to catch up over a decent brew.

Victorian terraced houses in Glasgow. Many have been converted into serviced offices.

our first snow for nearly 2 years

The ferry service has run from Knott End to Fleetwood since 1840. It's the longest running ferry service in England. The alternative is to drive 12 miles to the nearest crossing. This boat saves time, carbon, and provides opportunities for work and tourism.

You might remember a similar shot with a bee foraging on this lupin. Well the visit worked and the plant is now happily going to seed. Job done 👍

After a morning of indecision, I took the bus to Morecambe Bay. What a glorious afternoon it was.

Morecambe Bay has been described as a pit-stop for migrating birds that come from the Arctic to over-winter and feed on the millions of creatures that live in the sand, marshes, and salt marshes.

Try hitting 'L' and wander about the image - on the extreme left is a 'detectorist' who risks the quicksands in this area (a sheep was rescued near here only yesterday). Looking across the bay you can see Grange-over-Sands, Barrow-in Furness, and possibly a bit of Ulverston.

In the distance you can see the fells of Cumbria/Lake District.

The road to the old quarry is also where the owner built houses for the workers. Innovative or just common sense?

Creeping thistle spreads its seeds to the four winds.

With brunch goes coffee. This is luscious Brazilian.

I love this building that I sometimes walk past. it's still empty, which is a pity. it would make a great open workshop for budding artisans.

 

The long exposure hints at the constant traffic.
