Mr bayLee saying hi! from his morning walk yesterday.
It looks like another week or so of this unfortunate weather...
Hi 👋️
Welcome to my site! I live in Burnley, UK, with my wife Victoria, our canine children, and our hens.
On this site I write notes and longer articles about learning to code, exploring, following Burnley FC around the country, and training and racing. I snap images along the way, that appear in my dedicated snaps section. I also record all of my training, run, ride, swim, climb, walk and weigh-in data.

I created an extension of my indieBlog bundle for Pure Blog, to implement workout mapping, tracking and analytics on your own Pure Blog site. Demonstration indieFit project is here:
https://indiefit.prry.uk Code is available from the repo here:
https://codeberg.org/leeperry/indieFit Watch out for config/secrets.php which should power the same mastodon/blusky/webmention functionality that I built in indieBlog, but with workout tracking and mapping. There are keys and secrets here to edit. Note that the workout emoji title structure is important for the analytics to work... if that bothers you!

Journalism isn’t dying: it’s rebuilding in the ashes of the digital wildfire that has swept through the business model of the old, established media businesses. Emerging media will take a while to find its feet. - Journalism isn’t dying Adam Tinworth I enjoyed reading this article on the future of journalism from @adders

A quick clip of Podenco Ibicenco bayLee swimming laps of the hydrotherapy pool at Canine Health & Hydro in Rimington bayLee has been visiting Canine Health and Hydro at Rimington for around 18 months now, ever since complications from a then undiagnosed under-active thyroid caused weight gain, muscle wastage, and back pain. He is doing really well now, with his weight where it should be, and his pain largely prevented by regular K9 laser and swim sessions here, and ongoing thyroxin medication. As you can see, his monthly swim sessions are one of the best bits of my month!
