Half-arsed Grim

After being accused of posting 'saccharine' blips recently, on account of two warm and fluffies, here's a proper bit of Northern Grim.

For once, it looks less grim here than it does in real life.

It's a bit half-arsed as the cold I was feeling so smug about having avoided, has caught up with me. It's a shame as the parentals have been visiting and I've not been at my bouncy best.

They've just left now to make the epic journey back across t'border into Lancashire and I'm quickly catching up on blip before curling up on the sofa, under a cat and watching The Searchers :-)
