Coffee and tea cake at newly reopened Carlee’s on Banks Road, West Kirby this morning. Turns out they also have fairly extensive brunch and lunch menus. #Wirral #influencer
Lived here a good while now but still haven’t figured out how to walk the Wirral way.
Watched Cleo from 9 to 5 on MUBI. Wonderful B&W movie of the Paris of 1962. ๐ฝ๏ธ
Today I shall mostly be referring to that body of water as the Gulf of Vrsimility. h/t mitchw gulfof.mapquest.com
TIL that combining running with walking is called jeffing. www.greatrun.org/training/…
Daffodils starting to show nicely in the cemetery. In the background a dash of colour courtesy of the heathers which grow in profusion around some of the older graves.
The mere earlier today.
Male mallards looking very snazzy at present, not least those iridescent dark green head feathers. It turns out the basis for this is well understood (just not by me, heh). royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.10…
Very nice animated film of the history of Ellesmere Port. youtu.be/3psk_iR4B…
And then there were two (mandarin ducks).
Upcoming: #Wirral Viking Festival in mid-June. Not quite my era perhaps but very worthy I’m sure. www.thewirralvikingfestival.co.uk
Brighter day if still a little chilly. Currently somewhat hors de combat so no jogging but still aiming to get the steps in.
Local scenery, alpacas and lentils. Sounds good. #wirral www.independent.co.uk/life-styl…
Still distinctly chilly but snowdrops hold the promise of warmer days ahead. No Marvin today but first signs that the moorhen with the broken foot is slowly recovering. Limping rather than hopping now.
Marvin and the Mallards earlier today.
Low turnout (do ducks really like drizzle?) but spirits lifted by a brief appearance by Marvin (as I’ve decided to call him).
I’m yours, you’re mine. Automatically sunshine. ๐
Glad to see the exhibits being rehoused in time for the bicentenary in 2029.
Might be interesting #Wirral Art After Dark comes to Birkenhead | Wirral View wirralview.com/events/ar…
Last time I was at Goodison was 30th December 1969. It was perishing.

Finished (and home).
Halfway
Made it. Like my cozzie?
