What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
10 years ago it was the 1940s-themed Quorn & Woodhouse station on the Great Central Railway.

Although I’m not a huge fan of Halloween (or All Hallows’ Eve as it’s known in Scotland) this Pukin’ Pumpkin made me chuckle when I spotted it whilst on holiday in October last year…

What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
Six years ago it was this statue of Desperate Dan from the much missed comic The Dandy.
Created by artists Tony and Susie Morrow the statue stands on High Street in Dundee, home to DC Thomson, the publisher of both The Dandy and The Beano (whose character Minnie the Minx can be seen in the background aiming her catapult at Dan!)
