We were given a shed ton of eggs and veggies today so i made this version of Turkish scrambled eggs. Nutritious and comforting. People came for seconds so it went down ok.

Preston Guildhall. Opened in 1973. It has a troubled history and is a potential money pit. The use of aerated concrete in its construction troubles today's structural engineers due to some safety concerns.

The River Lune is tidal, and the range is about 6m between low and high tides. It used to be deep enough for commercial vessels until the 1950s. It has been allowed to silt up considerably since then and there is no impetus to do any dredging now.
You can see how the mud and silt have collected around the bridge piers.
Tis the season...Spring is nearly here in Australia and it rains practically every day. #AlyZenMoonshadow #androidography
Leaving the covered market, I seem to have arrived at LimeHouse. I think it is student accommodation. The views from the top floors must be quite impressive. But no access today.
A fine pair of tulip trees stand in the park. The tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera) is a native of north America, so I expect one of England's plant-hunters brought back some seeds. I last saw one of these at Kew Gardens - an equally-fine specimen.
In a few weeks this will become a luscious blackberry. A great source of vitamins C And K, and a source of manganese. Boiled up, leaves stalk and all, it's a traditional treatment for stomach ulcers.
I like to bake them with apples, brown sugar and Roquefort or Stilton cheese.
Many of my Gypsy and Traveller friends will be packing up to leave the annual Gypsy Horse Fair at Appleby in Cumbria.
I narrowly avoided this fellow this morning as i headed off to work. Going at full chat in order to avoid the hungry magpies no doubt.
Discovered in Yichang and brought to Europe as an ornamental plant it has now been deemed an invasive species in many countries. It's a good food source for many butterflies which is a good thing given considerable loss of habitat due to agricultural changes. And pretty to see in town as it colonizes did used buildings. However the roots will force stones apart and cause structural damage and eventual failure. I cringe when i see buddleia on a high chimney and talk a wide berth.
Autumn wardrobe sorted. I like grey and fuchsia.
The local hospice needs to raise millions of pounds every year. Yours does, too.
Apparently the meat and potato pie is a quintessentially northern meal, often served with gravy and pickled red cabbage. With the proliferation of foreign eateries and changing fashions, it's getting harder to find a decent pie.
This is my lunch at the Emmaus furniture store in Preston. It was all I needed for the day ahead.
Weighing the beans before grinding. A quick ritual that helps to make a decent brew. About 197mg of caffeine. Enough to jumpstart the day.
The interior of the Cozy Jazz Cafe. Notice the ceiling; papered with sheet music! The place is very 'me'.
This weekend is the Rebellion Festival at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool when 100s of punks will converge on the town for a weekend of music and entertainment.
The young women in the picture are the line-up of the band 'Pussy Licor' and they made me promise to feature them here. Maybe a wind-up, but they added to the shot. I don't usually have people in my pictures unless unavoidable.
Capture the moment.
Do you have a method to keep you grounded when everything around seems to be chaotic?
'Ready, steady, cook' was a BBC gameshow where contestants would be given a shopping bag full of stuff, and told to go and cook something with the contents. I never saw it, but I can imagine it was entertaining. Somebody on the kitchen suggested that was how I worked.
Here's today's mise en place. But someone has already grabbed the onions and is chopping away behind me.
It's going to be another all-in soup; the asparagus and broccolini will be added in the last 10 minutes to soften but remain al dente, to add a bit of interest.
The joy of open source software. When the system falls over you just rebuild it and there are 1000s of people to help you do it.
A hard to find WiFi driver was the culprit for the delay in getting things working.
My 12 year old Mac lives another day.
The sculpture by Mark Jalland, The Healing of The Nations, measuring 35 by 26 feet (10.7 m × 7.9 m), is an abstract steel and copper circular piece containing thousands of interwoven fibre optics that create ever-changing patterns of light at night. It is deemed by many to be one of the most innovative pieces of modern sculpture at any English cathedral.

Also in the foreground is the War Memorial from WW1.
