Tuesday 1st August 2017, 5.20pm (day 2,168)
The title is irony — as this was an indolent day all round, back at home after our week in the Lakes. Don’t expect much to happen this week…

Water for dogs
Saturday 22nd July 2017, 1.10pm (day 2,158)
The holidays have started, and a sunny day brought the crowds out into Hebden Bridge town centre today. All needed refreshment…
Scotland v England in the pub
Saturday 10th June 2017, 5.35pm (day 2,116)
Not an exciting day today I can assure you, but it was never going to be. Except at the end of the match at Hampden, which I guess was pretty exciting, although it’s been a while since I could really raise it for England F. C.
John the barber, off-duty
Friday 2nd June 2017, 6.40pm (day 2,108)
John makes his second appearance on the blog after the picture taken at his place of work three years ago. But is he really off-duty? Looks like he’s looking wistfully at the competitor establishment across the street, somehow.
Joe and his J2O
Sunday 28th May 2017, 4.30pm (day 2,103)
Joe’s first appearance on this blog was on its 9th day, September 3rd 2011, in which he was pictured in this room doing much the same thing as here, drinking a fruit juice (always still — Joe doesn’t do fizzy drinks). He — and the room — look somewhat different now, 2,094 days later.
Friday evening in the Railway
Friday 19th May 2017, 6.55pm (day 2,094)
I should count up how many photos out of the 2,094 published so far have been taken in or around the Railway Inn, Hebden Bridge. I imagine it must be pushing three figures by now, making the rate one every two or three weeks on average — and that allowing for the two long hiatuses caused by the floods, with it having been closed for the second half of 2012 and pretty much all of 2016. For ten years from about 2005 this was the only pub in Hebden Bridge I drank in (ever) — more recently I have diversified a little, but in the end this is still ‘my local’. Long life and good health to it and all who drink there.
Clare in the White Lion
Sunday 30th April 2017, 5.35pm (day 2,075)
The wife…. and a small square thing in the wall. Looking good after a day working at the Hebden Bridge burlesque festival which is in town this weekend. Well, she’s looking good, not sure about the small square thing.
The afternoon pint
Wednesday 19th April 2017, 3.30pm (day 2,064)
An indolent day, still off work, and yes, I was in the pub at 3.30pm, although only for one. Well, maybe a couple. There is something melancholy about it, I know.
Three blokes walked into a bar
Wednesday 12th April 2017, 6.50pm (day 2,057)
Something tells me these three have been drinking buddies for a long time. They are all consuming their pints at the same speed, note.
John, outside the Railway
Friday 31st March 2017, 5.50pm (day 2,045)
As March becomes April and it turns into spring, it’s nice to be able to sit outside the Railway, in reasonable warmth and evening sunlight, for the first time in about a year and a half. John: meet the blog. Followers of the blog: meet John.
