Café Mooch, lunchtime

Friday 16th May 2014, 12 noon (day 995)

Cafe Mooch, 16/5/14

It’s nice to travel, but it’s just as nice to come home. This is another of Hebden Bridge’s nice cafés, a good spot for a working lunch, which I had today. Been a good week.

Salem centre café

Wednesday 7th May 2014, 1.15pm (day 986)

Salem centre, 7/5/14

One of the cheaper places to have lunch in the centre of Hebden Bridge. Which is what I did, today, while a rather cold and unpleasant day unfolded outside.

Expect to see more of these

Monday 5th May 2014, 10.55am (day 984)

Bicycles, 5/5/14

The first two days of the Tour de France pass through Yorkshire this year, and on Sunday 6th July the race goes right past my front door, literally. The associated publicity campaign has already begun, with a noticeable increase in the number of bicycles to be seen on any given public holiday — as today was. There will be more, I am sure.

Outside ‘Innovation’

Friday 14th March 2014, 3.30pm (day 932)

Outside Innovation, 14/3/14

The signboard puts me in mind that these two are Withnail and I on their 40-year reunion trip, returning to where they demanded cake, and fine wine, the finest wines available to humanity.

Hebden Bridge station café

Thursday 23rd January 2014, 7.25am (as you can see) (day 882)

Station cafe, 23/1/14

This place is a godsend early in the morning, and rarely empty. I’m not normally round this corner, but for once I had my cup of tea sat down at the tables inside instead of on the train. Earliest shot for a while, since late November in fact (and only the fourth shot before 7.30 in the last 12 months). It’s still dark outside at this time.

Contact Theatre café

Thursday 21st November 2013, 12.45pm (day 819)

Contact Theatre café, 21/11/13

A second day beset by more Russians than is considered the usual amount; and two awful train journeys, particularly the one going home. This oasis stands reasonbly close to my office and I’m surprised it’s never featured on the blog before day 819, to be honest.

And no, I couldn’t say exactly what he’s doing. Occam’s Razor suggests ‘eating’, but what, I don’t know.

Sunday morning, outside Coffee Cali

Sunday 17th November 2013, 11.20am (day 815)

Coffee Cali, 17/11/13

A pleasant, relaxing Sunday, with everyone toking their caffeine and generally chilling out. Everyone should have a day like this at least once a week.

Breakfast at the Byronian

Monday 22nd April 2013, 10.05am (day 606)

Breakfast at the Byronian, 22/4/13

Last morning in Byron Bay. To prove that it isn’t just a beach and a cool sunset, here’s a shot to show it has cafés too. Lots and lots of them in fact. I passed the time in this one while waiting for my bus.

Artisans café

Monday 15th April 2013, 12.35pm (day 599)

Artisans cafe, 15/4/13

A busy scene, full of vignettes. What are the two girls in front talking about? What is the guy on the left apologising for? This is taken on the QUT campus once again, but get used to it – with the exception of a couple of breaks, I’m here for most of the next month.

Glebe Point Road, Sydney

Friday 8th March 2013, 1.00pm (day 561)

Glebe Point Road, 8/3/13

Lunch here today – and if you can’t find some variety of ethnic food to satisfy you on this street, well, you just ain’t trying.
