I’m a weaver. And I live in France.
Our local hamlet is flooded. The River Vienne burst its banks. We are now an island and the only way in and out is by tractor. Our neighbour is providing a taxi service to our cars which we all managed to get to higher ground before it hit the fan.
This our friend going to work. #floods

Im making a coat from a sheep. Not as silly as it sounds. Wash the fleece, card it, spin it, weave it and sew it. Here is halfway through still with pins. I have to finish the edges and add a lining. #handspun #handweaving #wool

Is this for real? Trump seems to be able to continue his unspeakable behaviour totally unchecked.
This is overt racism. Full stop. There’s no ‘misinterpretation’ and no excuse. This is who he is, who he’s always been, and why he should never be anywhere near power again. And there’s a reason the tapes from The Apprentice have never been released.

This is preying on my mind a bit. Jeffrey Epstein was not primarily a British scandal! So far we've removed a Prince from the Royal family, fired our US ambassador who was one of the most important political figures of the last few decades and banned the CEO of Barclays from the financial industry..
One by one, Europeans mentioned in the Epstein files who still hold political office are beginning to resign or are being forced out of office.
Meanwhile, ruled by an administration almost entirely made up of Epstein associates, the US carries on as if nothing really happened.

Apart from Ghislaine how many rich and powerful women are in the #Epsteinfiles Women and girls were commodities used by men who still think they are above the law. Back in the day it was nobility that made you untouchable. Now it’s money and power. It’s time to show the law is applied equally.

I’ll say it again: a fellow journalist was BANNED by the UN from reporting, after asking Ghislaine Maxwell a question during a press conference.

Just a Sunday afternoon in rural France. A three hour musical spectacle. Yes, three hours…about one and a half too long For someone who had to concentrate throughout to try and under stand it.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
