Peel tower Holcombe Moor Lancashire. The last section of spiral stairs leading to fantastic views from the top . #hiking #history #landscapes

A 39m stone tower set against white clouds and patches of blue sky

An excerpt from a Houses of Parliament speech announcing the repeal of the corn laws. A law keeping the price of grain fixed to benefit the land owners.Resulting in high bread prices

It sometimes feels every hill in the U.K has a monument on it.This is Peel tower built 1852.John Peel PM twice. Most notable for the repeal of the Corn laws and founding of the modern police force(hence the nickname bobbies). #hiking #history #lancashire

He is complicit in Isreals ethnic cleansing . And Trumps illegal Iran war. Sorry he’s as bad as the last half dozen Downing Street dossers.

I was only nipping for a pint of milk to Aldi.Not a train buff, but a lover of engineering. I was surprised via google this beauty is only 20yrs old. A project to build a “Pacific class Peppercorn loco” not sure what all that means. But what an astounding job. #steam #trains #locomotive

It bleeding hurts to agree with you. But a deserved win and spot on tactics.The only UTD were never in the game.The discipline of the back 5 🤭was outstanding. Hope you lose to Chelsea ya tyke gits 😂

I was a season ticket holder at an English premiere league football team. In 1999 the ticket broke the £200 barrier. Enough was enough. I broke a century long family tradition. I haven’t been since. The love of sports has been exploited.They don’t deserve our money.Don’t feed the beast.

Otters noses.Jaguars earlobes. 😂

VPN and Pirate bay is still going strong. Wait a while and download an entire series with no advertisements. Don’tget mad. Steal the content and starve the beast.😬

Or maybe people using this app arn’t serial posters and thumbs uppers. I would say a more mellow slightly older less needy demographic than twitter.

Around 40yrs ago armed with an RAC map. Tent loaded on my 125cc I spent a weekend in North Wales visiting neolithic sites. This one was hard to find. Not because of its location, but my pronunciation when asking directions for”brin silly doodoo”. Embarrassing as both Grandmothers were Welsh.

Facism is Capitalism in decay. Capitalism has always been facist in its nature.

Yes! Trusting my toddler daughter (back in the day) with some “honest” looking lady using the facilities. Or scurrying past a line of fellas stood at the urinals or piss stones as we call them in the UK😆Thankfully “Mother&Baby rooms are common in most UK public places these days.

Who said “politics is show business for ugly people”(just checked Kay Leno). But this explains Boris Johnson in the UK and Reagan and Trump in America.

I’m sure it’s the same in the USA(you folks helped rebirth lots of fading niche European brews).But smaller bars can’t accommodate separate toilets(UK yes we say what they do🤭)So two or three stalls and communal washrooms are common.Lsrger traditional pubs. Still blokes n birds 😁

These times shall pass. The world knows most Americans. Just want to earn an honest days pay fan honest day’s work. Enjoy life
,family,food and have a few days enjoyment.That goes for all nations.But still over the world we elect arseholes😂

Not having this light IPA is only5%. Golden Eagle IPA ,Eagles Grag Brewery.Goes down like a session bitter.My meandering walk home however contradicted this impression

The only consolation Hardly anyone under 55 buys then. On the downside.FaceShite has filled that demographic. But the under 30’s don’t use that either. There is hope.

Kompromat! Either Russian or Israeli. Or even more frightening. American Christo Facism.Anyway it’s needs stopping for the good of the planet.

Even in a dark little corner of the U.K. Star Trek brightened up those dark at 5pm 70,s winter teatimes . And made a little lad dream of space travel.And wanting to kiss lieutenant Uhura 🤭

I’m having this. We must spread these far and wide.A.I is bollocks and must be called out at every turn.

Last year being 50+. I received my test & post bowel cancer screening kit. Similar the the Covid ones but ahem well you can guess the procedure.Within 1 week of posting.Colonoscopy and a polyp removed.
Other than my taxes, no bills incurred. Cup of tea and a sandwich thrown in.U.K NHS=civilisation.

Bought and paid for.

Oh fuck off! And pull the other one.It’s got bells on it. Paid Israeli bot account.

Not sure if these two lovers have a table booked? But with the commuter traffic. It could be dispatched duck on the menu.

I will host the inaugural SE Lancs meeting. It will be myself and quiet Chris(he doesn’t say much, nor does he cycle). We do discuss new aches we discover most mornings.And rank the beer and pies of local pubs. The Theakstons from a wooden cask and the pork and black pudding roll our current fave.

Oh fuck off! And go and murder some Arabs. You fucking monster.

If you get that far. Checkout the memorial to Hellen Strange.A moving tale behind it’s existence 😥

Im surprised we haven’t crossed paths. Groans allowed 😁.Though I think this is the one to Pilgrims Cross? And not the one from Bull Hill.

A mountain bike leaning against a cairn on Pennine moreland.

A hazy warm 14°c afternoon up on the moors. Lots of wlkers enjoying the spring sunshine. But you can always find a quiet place in the West Pennines.Despite having a couple of million people in the surrounding towns and cities. #nature #cycling #Pennines #hiking

Marx predicted this. He saw the increasing mechanisation of the Lancashire cotton industry first hand. And posed the same question. But like cancer capitalism usually prevails 🥺
