Winter Crispness
Reading Time: < 1 minuteAs, sometimes happens, we found ourselves wandering round Hyde Park at some ungodly hour of the morning, in the crisp, winter frost. I took these and thought I’d just stick them up here.

Unity Day 2008
Reading Time: 2 minutesIts that time of year again, when all the city’s munters and loons congregate on Hyde Park. Hyde Park Unity day began as a community kick back to the 1995 riots in Hyde Park, though over the years it has become bigger and more messy, …
Northern Green Gathering
Reading Time: 2 minutesWe’ve just spent 10 days living in a field. Yes, it’s that time of year again. This year’s Northern Green Gathering has been at the lovely Lime Tree Farm, which I have posted about before. More chilled than the environs of Pontefract last year, but …

Rime and Sunsets
Reading Time: 3 minutesWe’ve had a bit of a cold snap. You could tell this was on the cards from Sunday night. When there’s ice and snow in the air, but no real clouds the sky above Hyde Park takes on this eerie orange glow from the reflected …
Hyde Park Skies
Reading Time: < 1 minuteFor somewhere that in many ways is so scummy, Hyde Park seems to have some wierd charm to it, and this is something that I guess has made up the core of this ‘blog (and the predecessors which have been subsumed into it). I’m not …
