Beautiful Arcos de Valdevez this morning. Cooler but with blue skies and clear water.

Just think - a mere 24 hours ago Farage was savaging the BBC for offending the ‘leader of the free world’ and Tory MP Nigel Huddleston was saying the BBC should grovel to him.

As Atlantic storms race across Portugal I light a fire for cheer and get the knitting out. Pets on the sofa, soft yarn and needles clacking calms my centre that lashing rain has disturbed

I’m watching and it’s astounding. We all knew something like this was going on - but the extent of it! While so many were suffering, dying, sunk into loneliness - a few were absolutely RAKING IT IN. The COVID health crisis was a very, very lucrative opportunity for some.
🚨Our upcoming documentary on the VIP Lane made the ITV news this evening.

“Waste of taxpayers' money': Whistleblower says billions wasted on unfit PPE during Covid pandemic”.

🎥Tune in to ITV Sunday 10.15pm to watch the rest of “The Covid Contracts”

Small boats: TV coverage - day after day after day after day....

PPE scandal: TV coverage - let's stick this powerful, enraging documentary on at quarter past ten on a Sunday night.
The Covid Contracts: Follow the Money review – a devastating picture of the biggest spending scandal ever
This rigorous look at the Tories’ ‘VIP lane’ for PPE suppliers during Covid raises questions about the motivations of those involved – ones that are almost too disgusting to contemplate

Can anyone recognise this Rose. I bought it 3 years ago as a sad specimen on the reduced shelf in Lidl for 99c. I would love be to know her name❤️

Reform is a Limited Company

Farage owns 53%

It was formed in 2019 to push for a “no-deal Brexit”

It wants to reintroduce the Liz Truss budget

It wants to privatise the NHS

& invest in fossil fuels

Close the BBC

& break International law

It’s a scam

I was gifted some linen for my stash. I made these from my favourite jeans pattern. By the way the pattern has been used so many times now it owes me nothing!
