Just over two minutes of pure joy!
I'm told it was 45 years ago today, yes TODAY! First ever Tops of the Pops appearance. Less than 12 hours after it was broadcast I was back in Derry, driving my Radio Rentals delivery van dropping off people's coloured telly's. youtube.com/watch?v=0dSbfvEH…

One of the great highlights of our holidays on Jura is standing on the quay watching the @LomondSeaplanes come and go. So pleased to have my work associated with these graceful aircraft. #seaplanes #visitscotland #visitbritain #jura #islay #lochlomondseaplanes #argyll #scotland

Just arrived, perfect timing, thank you @iconbooks and Oliver Lewis. We are just about to start our 2 day, 2 ferries, trek to the Isle of Jura. Hopefully getting up to Barnhill again, can't wait to read this book in the croft. #isleofjura #scotland #GeorgeOrwell #1984

Picadilly Circus by Stephen Millership. 🏙️ Influenced by the golden age of travel posters, the Manchester-based artist incorporates a modern twist in his work bringing to life the tallest buildings and many more structures from around the world.

This illustration has taken me 5 weeks on and off and was a real labour of love. Happy childhood memories of catching the Midland General B2 bus from Ilkeston to Wollaton with my grandparents for picnics or with my mates for the adventure playground. #wollaton #nottingham

Lucky to have Wells Cathedral to ourselves & time to sit & enjoy the mighty Strainer arches which were added 1338-48 to support the tower crossing. Built by William Joy who succumbed to the ⬛️💀
