Look at all that purple @NedLunn what would William Morris say to that?

omitted from the spoken word hit 'everybody's free (to wear sunscreen) / the sunscreen song (class of '99)' by @bazluhrmann, I believe. 🧐 Now there's a surprise @commanderwhitby ... or do I take this as a weather beaten command, lingering in sunny Scunthorpe from circa 1980?

Some straight to the point advice in Scunthorpe

We’re trying to get as many followers as Rishi Sunak so we can show the government just how many people are prepared to fight for the NHS and its staff. Please can you help by following us and retweeting this?

Thank you @NedLunn. I'm so grateful to you for hosting my visit to @Bfdcathedral yesterday afternoon. It's going to have an ambitious arts programme going forward - I loved hearing about your plans & ideas for the city of culture year, presenting a fusion of faiths and culture.

There’s no day off this week for several reasons but still want to pause briefly and remind myself to be thankful. This week I’m grateful for: @CecilGreenArts @Indie_Charu @LloydTranquil @malicarr @MiriamOkeeffe @RevTankard @RuthDowson @toby_howarth and, of course, @Bfdcathedral



It's a stunning exhibition in two beautifully appropriate spaces. I visited yesterday, blessed by the winter sun (as seen in the photo posted below ⬇️)

If in London, my show A Kind of Longing, is now open at 6 Fitzroy Square at Tristan Hoare with ⁦@parafinlondon⁩ until 10 March

a BEAUTIFUL atmospheric photo of #Bradford's town hall. That clock tower could easily have been scene of a gothic tale with mystery & intrigue. There's an abundance of Victorian architecture in the #city with a variety of architectural styles from gothic revival to neoclassical

One of the most splendid town halls in the country?

NO ONE SHOULD BE #homeless IN THE 21ST CENTURY. THERE IS ENOUGH WEALTH IN THIS COUNTRY, JUST NOT ENOUGH BEING SPENT ON THE THINGS THAT REALLY MATTER. So @SuellaBraverman, how about something positive to beat homelessness, not desperate people risking lives to reach these shores?

They're passing their days at present inside the Merrion Centre playing piano and singing rather than begging. If you're in the centre of Leeds, #shopping, please think of calling in and sparing a bit of cash in exchange for a tune played just for you.

Danny and Sam #sleep rough beneath the cold winter sky in Leeds. They're young lads who look out for one another. Sam was a chef but lost his home when he lost his job. Danny is a talented self-taught pianist.

I loved to #draw as a child and, although I took a degree in #fineart, it's something I rarely do these days ⬇️ 🎨 The next shot after the one below shows me sitting on the floor of the Merrion Centre in #leeds drawing a sign for two homeless friends I came across today.
