An eclectic collection of trivia, observation, cynicism, wit....
and the occasional rant.
Enjoy!

I'm Mark. Older than you imagine, pescetarian, husband, father, professional parent & pedant.

I post some original stuff and a bunch of other things that I like. If you own the rights to something you see here and you're not happy about me sharing it, let me know.
Fairfield Church, Romney Marsh, in winter. Beautiful and remote, Fairfield Church was picked as a location for the BBC’s recent adaptation of Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. The Marsh frequently delivers an atmospheric backdrop and certainly didn’t fail during filming.  I’m not a big fan of Dickens, but (and no doubt the purists will disagree) in my view the BBC did an outstanding job of making one of our historical writers’ greatest works more accessible. Gillian Anderson was the icing on the cake. Photo by Andreas Byrne, REX features, via Telegraph
