This year has proven difficult to be creative.

Our rotten windows are (finally) being replaced.

Our entire flat is a tip.

One window however, was mis-measured - hence the boarded up space.

It’s now my big space.

I’ll have some time to play… work in progress (which ultimately will be discarded).

My new favourite apple 🍎
Never heard of a ‘Cosmic Crisp’.
But they are well nice.

Met up with a friend over from Canada, on business.

No matter where we go she attracts men.

We were outside a pub in central London, while she finished her cig, and three men started chatting.

All I had to do was mention my husband is from Croydon, the men scarpered.

I am a c*ckblock 🙌

I can’t remember the last time I bought a “brand new” article of clothing.

I love a charity shop & hand me downs from Matt.

My new favourite hobby is mending old clothes badly.

It all started with a discarded expensive jumper from Matt’s closet - two holes, then covering paint marks with patches.

Took out recycling to bin.

Walked along path passed our neighbours’ house, when I saw a Robin on ground - started chatting with them.

Only to THEN notice neighbour was smoking on steps.

I embarrassingly confessed I was talking to bird “like a weirdo”.
He replied kindly, “I talk to birds too”.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Chilly, wet day.
Loads of pigeons came to feed.

Naughty (on my shoulder), is so comfortable with me now that when she’s full up, she will simply cuddle into my neck - she even did the pigeon feather shake at one point.

The other pigeon in foreground, followed me ALL the way onto High Street.

Rotting windows getting installed, while suffering a chest infection / allergies this whole week…

Finally feeling human today, so went to see park pigeons - Naughty was pleased 🐦💜💚

You guys I have bought some gold leaf and I fear it's about to become my whole thing™️

One hopes I will become more proficient at applying it!

Played around with inking and rolling technique and look at that, so pleased with how they're turning out!
Snail next? Or beetle?

It’s so strange visiting a friend who has a well insulated flat.
I wore what I normally do - base layer, long johns, double socks, waffle jumper, and hat… I WAS BOILING!!!

They were in a t-shirt and baggy trousers, while their partner in a dress.

I have been wanting a large studio in which to simply… go mad.

This sort of opportunity happened tonight.

Our decrepit windows have started to be replaced.

They made a mistake on one…

Naughty, has finally accepted Matt into the flock 🐦

I think she thought his empty tinnie of water in his right hand were “special” treats.

He’s well chuffed 💜

The world feels heavy.

So I made a random cold batch meal of:

Chickpeas
Lentils
Sweet corn
Black beans
Cannellini beans
Boiled new potatoes (chilled)
Coriander
Olive oil
Pepper
Salt

New favourite - at least for this week

Public Service Announcement:

Please check any “old” sweets before eating.

Matt ate two expired (October 2025) Fruit Salad sweets when clearing out his desk.

Despite the first one tasting / being a “weird texture”, he had a second - resulting in food poisoning (not too serious… but not nice) 🍬❌🤢

Here is a new year read for pigeon lovers! 🕊️🧬

I've written a little piece @theconversation.com about our work in Scotland studying wild Rock Doves: theconversation.com/what-ive-lea...
What I’ve learned from studying the wild pigeon
The wild rock dove is little understood and largely overlooked by scientists.

So many things are bad right now, but I interviewed @maggietokudahall.bsky.social about painting pigeons and small acts of survival. 📸 by @estefancy.bsky.social

I wanted to make vegan chilli for dinner tonight.

Matt then said one of our friends is popping round tomorrow to help with some DIY, so could I make extra for him.

I may have over estimated…
We’re gonna need a bigger pot 😂
