@alicefraser.bsky.social Still thinking about your piece on Bondi during @thebugle.bsky.social live show last night. It must have been hard to do that, and I thank you for your eloquence and outrage xx

Happy Winter Solstice everyone.
One of my first oil paintings from 1996 of Avebury where I went to primary school. Being there had a profound influence on my work.
Lighter days ahead.

Read this in my parents' Times today.

What's to blame for flooding? Poor drainage infrastructure and where & how we build our houses.

Good points.

Despite mentioning intense rainfall several times, there was absolutely no mention of climate change 😶

No, of course I'm not surprised

A white British father and son BOTH raped the same child and pled guilty to multiple counts of Sexual assault.

This has been in the press for 2 days.

The Mirror is the only National newspaper to report on it…

And THAT’s why people have such a skewed perception of the links between race and SA🤷🏼‍♀️

City: We unanimously declare a climate emergency! We must make change no matter what the cost, humanity's survival depends on it!

Community: Can we put in a protected bike lane to get more people cycling.

City: No, we'll lose parking spots.

In town just now and a man felt compelled to comment on my appearance.

40 years I've been hearing it. Does this shit never stop?

I meet some fruity characters at work but out in the wild it totally disarms me

Walked round the block to avoid having to go back past him

FUCK IT

We buried my uncle today

Mum turned to me in church and almost wailed

I don't know what books he liked or what music he listened to

I broke a bit

They didn't see each other a lot. When they did, they giggled like kids. I'm so sorry she's lost that

He loved Dickens. Just like her 💔
