'Mock Tudor interior' - the new kitchen look? I'll be wearing a ruffled neck collar, next! #interiorwalls #timberwork #kitchenwalls #kitchen #buildingwork #hull

Still Life Composition No.3, 4 & 5 (where once was the kitchen ceiling, is now the floorboards above). More old lead piping & chaotic wiring. #buildingwork #revamp #restructure #renovation #HoleInTheCeiling #viewintoanotherworld #timecapsule #kitchen #hull #stilllife #gutted

Still Life Composition No.2 (through the kitchen ceiling, with temporary wiring). Old lead piping has gone. Please note where the old toilet cistern used to be on the wall. #buildingwork #revamp #restructure #renovation #HoleInTheCeiling #viewintoanotherworld #timecapsule #kitchen #hull #stilllife

Being mistaken for a celebrity (in this case, Kevin McCloud), I decided to write a song about it. Here's the video version. 'Some People Think I Look Like Kevin McCloud' is taken from my 2024 album, 'IT'S NICE TO BE NICHE' - available at all good corner shops & my website. youtu.be/SRzoxODJfKU?...

Popped along to the Pop-Up Space, Pier Street, Hull, to see Paul Collinson's exhibition - 'Dreaming Of The Middle Ages'. It's open Wednesdays - Sundays, 11-4, until 9th Feb. It was good. Here are some photos... #exhibition #paintings #galleryspace #soundscape #humberstreet #FreeEntry #hull

I'm going to have to stop taking these sunset photos! Today. Monday. 4:00pm. Hull. #sunset #colours #settingsun #today #earlyevening #sky #hull #eastyorkshire

Sunset today, & sunset 2 days ago. What a difference! #sunset #sun #misty #whatadifference #hull #eastyorkshire

4 YEARS AGO. Boxing Day 2021. Being played on BBC6Music, alongside luminaries such as: Nadine Shah, Bobbie Gentry, John Lee Hooker & Roisin Murphy! It was thanks to the ever-lovely Tom Robinson who has always supported & championed independent artists out there. Without whom... #memories

Sunset. Christmas Day. Pearson Park, Hull. #sunset #christmasday #christmas2024 #pearsonpark #hull

To all you out there, have a fantastically tip top time! Best wishes from my good self, Gerald Gerald, Geraldine Geraldine & George George. #christmasgreetings #hull

'Twas the 'dancing in' of the light to come, this Sunday afternoon, by the Raving Maes & the Rackaback Morris dancers. Cold, windy, damp, but we all joined in at the end. (The Black Mill, Hessle Foreshore, by the Humber Bridge.) #morrisdancing #equinox #eastyorkshire #hull #humberbridge #bracing

The Action Man With A Giraffe's Head mugs have arrived! Please message me if you're interested in one of these little beauties- the ideal Christmas present! (Can be collected locally, Hull.) Lovingly produced by Clem Wear. #mugs #mugdesign #AMWAGH #christmaspresent #Hull #actionmanwithagiraffeshead

The GGB song from 2018, revamped in 2021, & now regurgitated in 2024 for your seasonal delight - Every Time I Look Into Your Eyes It's Christmas. Introduced by a perplexed & baffled Graham Beck. Dance or sit still & do nothing at all. It's up to you. Happy whatisname! youtu.be/iAuya7tx01k?...

Another day dawns. 7:25 am. Hull. #sunrise #colour #warmth #hull #eastyorkshire

A day at the Panto - keeping the tradition alive & kicking. First night of 'Jack & The Beanstalk' at the Bridlington Spa, with my friend Joe Standerline as Dame Trott (& very accurate with her pump-action water gun she was, too!). Recommended - & it's the seaside!! #panto #bridpanto #bridspapanto

Here I am holding a copy of 'Serving Suggestions', by JoeDent, bought yesterday from JE Books, Hull. It's only £3, & money goes to Welcome House (a charity supporting Asylum Seekers & Refugees). The 'zine is about pairing music with certain foods - what a great combination! Available from JE Books.

Early evening. Low cloud. Distant football pitch lights. Hull. #eveningglow #lowcloud #distantlight #hull #eastyorkshire

This photo was taken in Gt. Yarmouth 8 years ago. It's the bandy-legged Santa, outside The Feathers pub by the market. It's odd. It's kitsch. It's what the seaside's all about! But, enter at your peril!! #santa #santaclaus #GreatYarmouth #norfolk #christmasdecorations #marketplace #kitsch #kitschmas

X3 vinyl albums from Spin-It Records, Hull, last Saturday. 'Egon Bondy's Happy Hearts Club Banned' - The Plastic People Of The Universe (1978), 'Rei Momo' - David Byrne (1989) & 'Sailin' Shoes' - Little Feat (1972). Eclectic, or what?! #vinyl #vinylrecords #the70s #the80s #hull
