Fen life watching Marsh Harriers (not pictured). For a brief period the clouds broke, the mist has been very present the last few days. The Sedge in Winter is always such a wonderful thing, but then I’ve always loved Helsinki in the darkness of Winter too, I know some people find this quite bleak. 🌱

HPV vaccination could prevent most cervical cancers, but only 27% of eligible adolescent girls worldwide have received the vaccine. Data suggest that a single dose may be protective. Research findings from the ESCUDDO trial are summarized in a new Quick Take video. nej.md/3MFcHBr

Next on my holiday movie bonanza, was Spirited. Didn’t make it past the first musical number.
So, rewatched Scrooged. It was definitely the right decision. In my top ten all time Christmas movies.

Two of my watercolour drawings of the Warrior, Portsmouth. These were both done (plus others) sitting on the shore near the dockyard entrance in the early '90s. The first one was sold and the second one is a rather dull photo of the original
