As @michaelrosenyes.bsky.social said 'The story has turned into being about 2 bad boys, Mandy and Andy, and not about an elite group of men creating a den, cut-off from the real world where they could behave as they want - which was about corrupt finance and brutalising women.' #Epstein

Happy NY!!! Since 2014 we have pioneered the restoration of overgrown ponds & lost infilled #ghostponds in the UK. Our methods, learnt from a wonderful farmer (Richard Waddingham), are mega successful & lead to massive biodiversity gains for aquatic & terrestrial species. Please support us in 2026 🎉

Its nearly Christmas - like everything this can be lovely or stressful or fun or lonely.

Here are numbers where you can get support if you are struggling.
We hope everyone has the best Christmas they can 🎄

For ID purposes videos can be great for familiarising yourself with seabird flight actions, structure, etc. but it’s a pain tracking down useful clips. I’ve collated video links for various N Atlantic species here #seabirds #seawatching #birding #birdID

Today Tessa and I made our annual visit to the fantastic Christmas Tree Festival at St Peter & St Paul Fakenham parish church. This year we took Joseph, who was captivated by it all. It’s really worth a visit (the carrot cake is recommended).
It was lovely to catch up with the Rev Tracy too!

Tomoz at Dragon Hall, Nodge. I know that no one's interested but I have to go through the motions. 😂
All books will be going cheap.
Dragon Hall is a medieval merchant's house close to the River Wensum. It's steeped in history and actually has dragons!
