Who’s hitting the vitamin D supplements? I had a nightmare last night that the sun was NEVER coming back 🫥
Wondering where the sunshine has gone?

Spare a thought for northeast Scotland; Aberdeen Dyce hasn't recorded any sunshine since 21 January! This is provisionally the longest sunless period here since records began in 1957 ☁️

Inspiration on a dreich day.
Bob Cooney was a ‘radical’ politician who held anti-fascist rallies on the Castlegate in Aberdeen. He spent 13 months living in Russia studying at the Lenin Institute & returning home began organising rallies & speaking at open air meetings across the country.

Watching The Traitors final last night reminded me of this classic. I love that piece of music. Max Richter reinterpreting Vivaldi’s Four Seasons.
We told you to go see this display, didn’t we? It was very cool to be there. Exciting, ephemeral and just a wee bit chilly. The only evidence of its existence is a few social media posts.
