Sheffield Folk events in the next 2 weeks. Yorkshire Chandelier have decided to finish after 50 years of clog dancing. Their final dance out is this Thursday, with several guest teams from Sheffield.
Completely failed to post this yesterday for #PostboxSaturday but I was excited to see a new Charles III parcel box AND a Charles III post van in #Wakefield this week. The solar powered parcel box dwarfs the more traditional Elizabeth II double postbox next door. @lbsg.org @letterappsoc.bsky.social

My new shush whistle has just arrived from #BigWhistle. Really fast delivery and it's lovely. Sounds somewhere between someone playing far away and playing with earplugs in. The notes are still all really clear though, even the top end. No excuse for not practicing now! @traddad.bsky.social

Haven't posted a #PostboxSaturday picture for a while, but I was excited to see this lovely Edward VII Irish postbox on #ConeyIsland Sligo today. The island would have been a very different place when this was installed!

Catching up with the #Snooker #WorldChampionships and suddenly feeling a bit sad that I haven't heard anybody say 'where's the cue ball going?' Despite some great punditry there's definitely a voice missing this year. RIP John Virgo.
Save the date, people! Let’s make it a letter writing and sending day to remember! Let’s make Rowland proud too! Exciting news to follow soon… #PennyBlackDay 🥳✉️🎩
Happy #PostboxSaturday from a sunny Castleford, West Yorks. Spotted this lovely little Elizabeth II box just round the corner from the Cas Tigers ground. Princess Street seems appropriate @letterappsoc.bsky.social @lbsg.org

Very sad news. I spent a lot of time at the Adelphi in my late teens/early twenties. The bit in the article about how Paul tried to create an inclusive space where women could feel safe going on their own really resonates. RIP legend Paul Jackson www.thehullstory.com/allarticles/... #HullAdelphi
