Not all friendships last for a lifetime, even ones that burn fierce and strong. It can be hard to accept when a friendship fades away (or harder still when it's an abrupt stop) but it's a normal facet of life.
Do cherish the longest friendships, but don't under-appreciate the transient ones either.

What a win for nature!
Scotland is the first UK country to have Swift bricks in law – a lifeline for this threatened bird. And, for the first time ever, the Scottish Government must set legally binding nature recovery targets.
Thanks for helping make history with a strong Natural Environment Bill.

Lately, I've been researching the life of Barbara Fea who was born in Stronsay some time* in the late 17th century.
Her story is one of power, legal process and, sadly, awful violence. Throughout this, she endures. I want to tell her tale.
* We'll return to her age in a bit because it's important.

We washed the dog and he's been gently steaming dry under an old duvet. He just got up and there was a waft of baby powder (the scent of the dog shampoo) and sulphur (his own hellish wet dog stench).
