Claws For The Weekend: For Fork’s Sake

I don’t think I let my Pot Noodle soak for long enough.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Always read the instructions.

Claws For The Weekend: The Depopulated

This morning I went up to the doctors to make an appointment for my son, and there was only me in the queue. (Can a queue of one even be called a queue?)

This has never happened before. I mean never, in the history of me going to the doctors to make an appointment for anyone.

From this I deduced that 1: two thirds of the estate on which I live are dead. And 2: The remaining third had not got up yet.

Cue my best ever least waiting time. There’s always a bonus.

Have a great weekend everybody. I hope your communities are hanging on. (Apart from Jerusalem’s Lot. Those guys are gone.)

Claws For The Weekend: A Squeeze Of Yellow

Aw, I wanted to park my skateboard there too.

Claws For The Weekend: The Circus Doesn’t Come To Town

I took this photograph a few weeks ago in my town centre, just before nightfall.

It looks like the circus was in town. It wasn’t. Those gazebo-marquee thingies were put up to encourage people to still use the local cafés when Covid restrictions wouldn’t allow people to sit inside.

We do have a few clowns though.

Hope you all have a great weekend, juggling (😆) any commitments you have.

Claws For The Weekend: Cold Feet

An Inuit man warms up his wife’s feet in Greenland, 1890s. Or me to my wife when she’s forgot to put the electric blanket on, Manchester, 2020s.

Have a great weekend, everybody. Maybe invest in some warm socks.

See you on the flip side.

Claws For The Weekend: Window Shopping

I love this photo by Arthur Leipzig of children looking at Christmas toys in 1944. The little girl at the bottom looks like she just can’t stand the allure, I think I’d have to buy her something.

Anyway, have a great weekend everybody, Christmas is a week today.

I hope you get all you wish for. Be careful what you wish for.

Claws For The Weekend: I Wish You Death

I just love walking around my hometown, reading all of the positive signs of encouragement during these difficult times.

Claws For The Weekend: Feeling The Squeeze

This was me this morning, getting every last penny’s worth out of my toothpaste.

Afterwards I spent the afternoon with my daughter by a local beauty spot.

Have a great weekend, people. Get everything you can out of it.
