We travel the Spaceways.
Snaps of the stuff we see along the way.
My posts have loads of edits as I can't spell for toffee and I worry too much about the rubbish I write!

21/01/2026 - I had my evening walk at lunchtime today as the rain is coming later.
"On the outskirts of #Copenhagen, one municipality is adjusting its streetlighting system in a way that departs from decades of urban convention. The solution looks minor. A colour change, visible mostly at night, only on certain streets. But the reasons behind the shift reflect a broader convergence of #biodiversity policy, #climate targets and #infrastructure design."

20/01/2026 - Walking the quiet roads at night. Mild but the wind was picking up. We were taking the long way back from the chippy.
I'm having an Andy Kirk afternoon whilst I work away. Mary Lou Williams' 'Ghost of Love' might just possibly be my favourite song by the band. Recorded 1938. What a band! Mary Lou on piano and Pha Terrell on vocals. I'm a massive fan of Pha's singing. They were with Andy Kirk's Clouds of Joy for about 8 years. It's proper cheering me up on a dull afternoon at work.
