Yet more Staithes

DotCommunist's latest business venture

And the last one of Staithes - a rather pretty street

Whitby Abbey

And the view the other way

Allotments near the abbey

The 199 steps

I think we all know what sort of cream goes into my cream teas

Unfortunate bunting positioning

Friendly horses near the Abbey (signs said no touching, no feeding...oops, too late )

British Summertime

Getting back on topic properly, a car park in Whitby

Not the usual picture you see of Robin Hood Bay

Can't remember if I posted this (it was a while back): a mud-splattered Henry Moore Institue, Leeds

The abandoned new Hilton Hotel, Leeds. Work started about a year ago and then something happened (I've heard the building firm went bankrupt) and the workers left the site. There was a bit of action a few weeks ago, but it seemed to have stopped again. Is this Leeds' Ryugyong Hotel?

Cumbrian coast at Nethertown

There was a nightclub (of sorts) at the caravan site at Nethertown. No idea if it still exists. Was a great place, if you wanted to get into a fight with one of the Young Farmers, or later on, a Sellafield contractor.

Not seen this before, on the wall of Bar Soho, on Posterngate.

Love it, I can smell Whitby from those pictures.
I had many happy times there as a kid.

Gilson hotel, on the corner of Ferensway and Anlaby Road. Not one of the city's classier establishments, AFAIK.



From a bit further south, looking back to the Danish Lutheran Church, the Gilson and that bloody awful office block on the other side of the Anlaby Road.

Tunnel on way ta Halifax

Ainley Top. J24 Just down the road. I've been down that tunnel thousands of times and never get tired of that view over Elland, Greetland and towards Halifax

Halifax! The Acapulco sounds bad enough but the Gourmet bar! Bet it was rocking in its heyday though. What ever century that was.

The Acca is still going. My sister went the other week. It's a shit nightclub in Halifax. What else would you expect?

Lovely sky at ours last night. The scaffolding is on the roof of the house opposite.

A couple of mundane shots from this morning.

Probably the tallest thistles in the city, outside a house on Spring Bank.


Former White Horse Hotel, an old coaching inn which after a long period as a rather ropey pub seems to have been turned into a strip club. For shame.



Poster in the window of Hull Truck Theatre. The play was pretty good.



In the bar. I've no idea what that shape on the table might be, I certainly didn't draw it and those are not my shoes. Honest.

Look at the pic of the dead shark head eating the dead crab- fair made my day that.

More graffiti should be like this. In my head, the Graffiti Sprayer is dashing.

I can't see any of cyberfairy 's images - just me or anyone else bereft too?

I can't either, although I'm only on the phone at the moment so I thought they were a format my phone wouldn't display.
