Great time at Strictly tonight. Bizarre and amazing to think about everything that’s happened in my life in the last year!

Beautiful post about green flags in people 💚💚💚
Because all too often we focus on the negatives.

I'm totally OK with being called woke. It just means that I'm showing off my green flags. Happy to follow others with green flags.

Jeremy Clarkson, who owes his fame & fortune in large part to the BBC, sneers at the brilliant @vicderbyshire.bsky.social for being ‘classic BBC’ when she uses *his own words* to describe his position.
“So it’s not about you, it’s not about your farm and the fact you bought a farm to avoid inheritance tax?”

@vicderbyshire.bsky.social speaks to Jeremy Clarkson at the farmers’ protest in Westminster where thousands of farmers are protesting the government’s inheritance tax plans.

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever.

Good advice. Very often, what people aren’t willing /aren’t talking about is a lot more important than what they do talk about.

Happy Sunday!
Now, more than ever, it's really important to look after our mental health. Here's a great initiative from the NHS: Five Ways to Wellbeing.

Saturday is made for book browsing. I borrowed this eclectic mix from the local library, followed by a trip to an independent cafe for a savoury afternoon tea. No photos of the food unfortunately. Too busy devouring!
