Went to our village fare, got a Tiffany charm bracelet, went blackberry picking.

July felt very long, and not in a bad way for once! We went to the theatre to see Tabitha's favourite: Noughts and Crosses. No photos from that, but we did have an enjoyable day mooching around London. It was my 40th birthday which coincided with a trip to Silverstone to wat...

I forgot to do everything today.

Daniel is over to go to Cornwall with his family, but stopped off to say hello on his way.

It's story time! Don't worry though I'll keep it short.

Hurt my foot when walking the dog this morning.

I could have slept in for one thousand hours today.

Went out for a long walk with the dog. Wanted to get some shots with the drone. Didn't get anything I liked.

The way "multi-tasking" works on the public betas of iPad OS 26 is extremely unintuitive.

Slow photo day. Spent the day doing pretty exclusively non-photography-related things, which was nice then stressful.

Repeated our walk a little earlier today. No cute horses, no lovely landscape scenes.

Went for a 5km walk with Forest before work, and a horse was very interested to meet him.

J came round in his TVR this afternoon. It sounds like an absolute monster.

My extremely disturbed sleep on Sunday night caught up with me this afternoon. Barely had the energy to fetch myself a cookie. Powered through though.

Woke up at 2:30am with the worst acid reflux of my life, coughed for about half an hour - nearly called an ambulance. Absolutely terrifying, and exactly what I needed.

Filler picture. One of the worst days in recent memory. I have never looked forward to Monday before.

When we found out that Tandy-favourite, Sandwiches of History, was coming to London, we had to get tickets.

I absolutely love this board but I'm so used to a split 34% that it doesn't really get a look-in.

Spent today with Dan, planning Buffalo's future. Came away feeling super positive.

Was having a rotten morning so I went for a walk, grabbed a sandwich, and sat on the beach.

I got up this morning and said I was going to the gym. Didn't get round to it until 7pm.

I don't know why, in my head, photos I take when walking the dog are any more interesting than the ones I take sitting at my desk.

I've wanted to take this picture for ages but the framing of the chimney on this wall has never been quite right.

I've had this link open to read for ages, but I've been in an accumulating mood and hadn't read it. It's a simple interview format asking, almost exclusively, the sort of questions I want answering about why and how people blog. So, I should have read it sooner.

I was scanning the list of other people who've been interviewed and noticed my friend Seth on there, so that was the obvious one to read next. Towards the end he mentions me, which was, frankly, a huge surprise. I think I can safely say that I have never been mentioned in the same breath as Daring Fireball, Swiss Miss, and Seth Godin before. I'm not normally one to retweet my own praise but this was so lovely to read that I wanted to note it. Thank you, Seth; that's really brightened my day.

Charlotte got this art card thing that gets you into all-sorts of places.

Another busy and warm day. Went to walk the dog when the temperature had calmed down a bit.

Not a good photo of a pretty great pizza.

Remember when we went to Silverstone?

Met up with Aidan for lunch and a catch-up. Can't remember the last time I saw him.

There's so many bees around at the moment. I love the sound of a load of them flying around a garden.
