After the weekend away, the day spent almost entirely at home working to make up. Use was thereby prompted of a stock late October shot, but what the hell.

Market Street
Monday 23rd September 2024, 11.25am (day 4,778)
Back home: from Berlin on a Sunday morning to Hebden Bridge on a Monday one. At least I got out of the house today. This is a standard shot but the comparative lack of traffic was appealing. The sign to top left, less so, but I tried to make it look less obtrusive.
What’s he got then?
Thursday 12th September 2024, 12.10pm (day 4,767)
Oh, the dog knows. Probably it already knows more details about the guy’s fish than he does, in, like, two seconds.
By the old bridge
Wednesday 4th September 2024, 10.30am (day 4,759)
Another picture of someone sitting down, though she looks a little more comfortable than yesterday’s model (and has both her shoes on). Meanwhile, over on the other side of the bridge, there are interventions taking place in the ongoing duck-pigeon conflict,
Fresh food for sale…
Thursday 22nd August 2024, 11.45am (day 4,746)
The Thursday market is the place to come in Hebden Bridge for fish, vegetables, food of all kinds, and I certainly indulged today. Was it warm? No — autumn is in the post, I feel, but that’s why we stock up with food at this time of year.
The TV people are back
Monday 19th August 2024, 11.00am (day 4,743)
Following the success of Happy Valley and its evident impact on Hebden Bridge’s tourist trade/appeal to stag and hen parties the BBC have been persudaded to return, having taken over chunks of the town centre and at least two of its pubs over August. Although apparently, this time, HB might be pretending to be Todmorden. Whatever…
The Sunday flotilla
Sunday 18th August 2024, 3.20pm (day 4,742)
This is now a standard sight on a Sunday in HB town centre. But I include it today more because of noticing the participant in the middle — one of those things you don’t see until uploading it to the laptop, later.
Bridge Gate collage
Monday 12th August 2024, 9.20pm (day 4,736)
For some reason this looks and feels like a collage. The streak of the bus in the background and the overlay of the reflected lettering on the guy’s head are what make it, I think. The whole thing seems to sum up my Monday night, anyway.
Passing by
Sunday 4th August 2024, 5.00pm (day 4,728)
These things are not necessarily unusual sights in Hebden Bridge, but perhaps their juxtaposition is rare.
Attics get an airing
Friday 2nd August 2024, 11.15am (day 4,726)
The sun is still shining. A few attics need airing, skylights need opening. Ours too — this photo was taken by sticking my head out of the roof.
