[#12154381]

I like using pic's from throughout the year of mainly outdoor stuff I've done. Current one is from outside the Hutchinson Bothy when I rode Ben Macdui a few months ago.

There's some nice wee crags in there for a bit of rock climbing, I spent a great day there a couple of years ago. Really must get try and get back down again.

Right county though, but a reasonable distance from there

windows

On work laptop. Only see it for a few seconds before 20 windows get opened up over the top of it over the course of a day then a few seconds as it shuts down on a night. Keeps it vauguely generic incase I end up screen sharing durng a Teams call. Can't be bothered explaining a personal background after someone glimpses it for a moment.

Corporate backdrop on screen one, picture of my old dog Ted on screen 2. Helps me differentiate between work stuff and personal stuff.

The joys of being rear gunner. You get to take shots like this. From an epic summer Monday Night Pub Ride on Pendle Hill a few years back

This however, is my phone wallpaper. In case you don’t know it is the last known image of HMS Hood, taken as she steams into battle at full pelt against the Bismarck. Not long after she’d gone to the bottom taking all but 3 of her crew with her…

Inspired by @gingerflash I've bought some colour to my desktop, taken just a couple of days before Mallorca went into lockdown...

Windows is set to show me new ones every day or so and I've been training it to show me outdoor/landscape stuff. It's been stuck on something which I didn't bother to check but think was Dawn wall. It just changed to lady bower and the 'plug hole' (bell mouth slipway)

I've got the Bing Wallpaper app, so a new one every day. Today it's a rhino with some birds sitting on it. Not one of the best.
