About Me
- Sid Smith
- I’m a freelance writer living in Whitley Bay and putting words about music in places like Prog, Classic Rock, BBCMusic, Record Collector, Mojo, & all over the interwebs. I've also written 100s of liner notes for new & archive releases. I’ve been blogging since 1999, commenting on music in particular and the arts in general, as well as whatever takes my fancy.
sid seeing this image got me to thinking about the shovel i had as a little boy on trips to blackpool and landudno. it had a wooden handle and a painted metal digging part (what is that bit called anyway?!) i'd have to go onto a high-end shop to get something like that now. steven
ReplyDeleteHey Steven, I saw it on the beach earlier today just abandoned in the sand and seaweed.I was immediately reminded of times when I was child on these very beaches. Those memories morphed into memories of my old kids playing here. A lovely and oddly poignant moment. Glad it brought back childhood memories for you as well.
