Glanced out of my window because the leaves were noisily skittering about the paved garden and was just in time to spot the hindquarters of the neighbourhood fox passing the gate. 🦊💙

It's so fucking cold this morning (1C/34F) that not only is my left knee yelling at me, as per, but so is my left elbow - the one I tore open when I lost my footing on that uneven pavement back in Jan. Joy of joys.

It's not illegal migration that's tearing the country apart, it's the fucking politicians (Reform, Tories, and even Labour), and the bloody hate-mongers (eg Tommy Robinson and Elon Musk).

Fuck 'em all for their racist hate.
What's this? Oh, nothing really, just a Labour Home Secretary stirring up hate.

Business as usual for the modern Labour party. Let's hope they enjoy their final 44 months in power, because after that they're done forever.

Tabletop game playing pals. Can you recommend a four player game that's focused on cooperation towards a common aim rather than doing down the other people around the table? Please and thank you.

Ah! One of my absolute favourite birds, Robin Redbreast, my best beloved! Charlotte's paintings are gorgeous. 💙
Brush with the Wild | Robin

Meet Robin – our friendly songster, perched on a branch or fence post, just as curious about us as we are about him. Seen as messengers from the spirit world, a gentle reminder that loved ones are never far away.
