Or perhaps that should be Union-Joke Ken, for UJK was enterprisingly raising money by selling joke magazines at Reading Services. Well anything that creates a laugh on the M4 has to be worth the investment.

I think Brimscombe Port is in the same category as Wigan Pier, insofar as it doesn't really exist. Unlike Wigan Pier, however, Brimscombe Port is not the title of a great work of literature, but perhaps it could be. Maybe…

Although obviously I'm not in Rome. In rural parts, sunsets are the thing to do, but I never seem to be around for those amazingly vivid colours.

Today we made pinhole cameras at school. Technically, due to my advanced skills with a sewing needle (LOL), mine worked very well indeed. However, in terms of aesthetics, imagination and just sheer brilliance, the prize has to go To Roger…

It was Sunday Shoot day and so inevitably the bright sunny day soon turned to a flat dull light and then rain ... and it was jolly cold. As ever, the Blighty spirit of the members prevailed, although I think…

This spot was 'Posh Rubbish Corner' as there was always a pile of rubbish here, but none of your coffee-dregs and fag ends, but rather rubbish in bags from designer shops, brochures for exclusive cars etc. The council has obviously…

I love Chelsea at this time of year as it prepares for the Chelsea Flower Show. Although tickets for the real thing are impossible to get and outrageously expensive, we can still enjoy the fringe flower show. Local shops and…

Great fun today test-driving a tilt-and-shift lens. It wasn't as scary (in terms of bells, whistles and knobs) as I thought it would be, but there was a lot more user decision-making required than I had anticipated. The test-drive was…

So this is another shot from the building that I'm documenting before it goes. I'm calling it the Warren, with its true location to be revealed on its demise.

As I trip over the piles of rubbish that adorn our streets, I wonder whether they are piled there by refuse operatives, who will be back later in the van to do a quick scoop up, or whether it is…

Well I'm sure that's how the tabloids would describe it. Having seen other pics of high profile children, I understand it is the done thing to put a highly pixelated square over their faces, but it just looked daft and…

But it is a good example about what I mean about re-cycling- leave it out for a day or two and see if anyone else wants it before binning it.

Not every day we see German warplanes in Amberley. There are thirty cow characters with names like 'Moolin Rouge' and the "Moona Lisa' dotted around the common and the hunt for them is a fund-raising exercise for the local school.…

I'm having a bit of a clear out and have done several runs to the charity shops and the tip, since the charity shops won't take electrical items, so they just had to be hurled into a skip, where they…

Shooting Battersea Power Station at sunrise is on my list of things to do. However, having realised how early that is at this time of year, I am postponing for a few months. So here's an early morning shot instead.

I always like riverside scenes and to see the sun shining on this colourful area was so uplifting after months of drab grey.
