Teakay's Blog: Waddington Air Show 2013
http://tommybblog.blogspot.com/2013/07/waddington-air-show-2013.html
It seemed like such a good idea at the time. Tuesday, July 9, 2013. Waddington Air Show 2013. Posted by T K Briggs. It's that time of year again - that time when my old uni buddy Neil. And I high-tail it to RAF Waddington for their annual air show to geek-out with 'planes and 'tography. Surely these guys need no introduction? For a number of reasons I haven't really played with my D60. A ghostly Battle of Britain memorial flight. Hide and Seek and Destroy! Look out for the-! I almost forgot another compl...

It seemed like such a good idea at the time. Thursday, July 16, 2015. Photoblog: Long Exposure at Peterborough Fair. Posted by T K Briggs. Ok, so the words "exposure" and "Peterborough Fair" appearing in the same sentence sounds like a recipe for a failed DBS check, but rest assured the only exposure I'm talking about here involves a lengthy shutter speed. Another trip with my photobuddy* Neil. Here we see Peterborough Cathedral queueing patiently for its go on the inflatable slidey thing. I quite li...

Teakay's Blog: Rock and a Hard Place - Gigging Horrors
http://tommybblog.blogspot.com/2015/04/rock-and-hard-place-gigging-horrors.html
It seemed like such a good idea at the time. Thursday, April 30, 2015. Rock and a Hard Place - Gigging Horrors. Posted by T K Briggs. It's been a while since I've been in a band*, but. Pushed my way by. Got me wandering down memory lane. I thought I'd share a few of my own experiences. Booked to play in a student union bar, we were assured that we'd be playing on a stage. Upon arrival, we quickly realised that the 'stage' was actually a drum riser. A bay window. Seriously. We've also been placed directly...

It seemed like such a good idea at the time. Saturday, September 15, 2012. Posted by T K Briggs. On the last Sunday of the school summer holiday I went to Warwick Castle with Emma. And their daughter, Beth. Here are some things I saw and did. As usual, these are the highlights and there are more here. Warwick Castle's front door. Some of the inner workings of the castle's water mill. A peacock outside the water mill. Answers on a postcard (or in the comments), please. Nobody tosses a rat. One of the more...

Teakay's Blog: October 2012
http://tommybblog.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
It seemed like such a good idea at the time. Sunday, October 21, 2012. Posted by T K Briggs. My mum's trying to start up a corset business, and she's made a few, one of which was modelled by Vicke, my brother's girlfriend, earlier. I had my camera with me, so took the chance to grab a couple of snaps. I've sent the half decent ones to my mum, but I quite liked this shot of Vicke's head in the background, with her blurry back in the foreground. Haven't had a chance to properly play with the new lens.

It seemed like such a good idea at the time. Sunday, August 11, 2013. Photoblog: The Raptor Foundation. Posted by T K Briggs. I have managed to scrape together enough internets to get some photos uploaded and now I can write a post about my visit to Cambridgeshire's Raptor Foundation. A couple of weeks ago. Please don't expect me to remember ornithological details and names beyond "owl". Feel free to comment with interesting info about the birds you see if you know more than I do, though. Booked him, me ...

Teakay's Blog: June 2013
http://tommybblog.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
It seemed like such a good idea at the time. Saturday, June 1, 2013. Posted by T K Briggs. Resisting the urge to talk. It was my birthday a mere eight months ago, but I haven't seen Emma. Since before then, so I got my present(s) when we met up yesterday to go and see Iron Man 3* * *. One of my presents was a box of cupcakes with a Whoish theme, but it's not those that I want to talk about here (even though they look awesome and taste delicious). Here's what I have. Forest of the Dead. Label off (it's se...

It seemed like such a good idea at the time. Saturday, April 13, 2013. Posted by T K Briggs. Eagle- eyed readers will probably have failed to notice a new link in the bar under the header of this page: Coffee? Allow me to explain. I want to meet new people. The way that most people do this, so I'm told, is by going to places where people are and saying hello to them. I struggle with this immensely, in the same way that a toddler may struggle with proving Poincaré's conjecture. The truth is that I try.
