'Still life' (in more ways than one).
I painted it for entry in a local #art exhibition, but it wasn't accepted. At least I can share it here!

Monday afternoon walks. The pines and dirt tracks smelt like the warmth of summer in May.

It’s been a tiring week. But a new coffee shop with proper homemade cake and staff who completely understand sensory overload in public spaces has been a lovely start to the day.

Latest book I’m looking forward to reading (slowly). Sometimes I think I miss travelling but then I can’t picture it in this current time and space in my life. So I read instead.

On Monday our instagram account was hacked and then deleted. We received a ransom note to recover it; obviously we couldn't and wouldn't pay, and therefore lost thousands of followers. Meta support was useless. But we're BACK with a new account: @littletollerbooks. Can you follow us there and share?

Spending part of the morning crocheting a hat (bucket) for a Koopa Paratroopa. This is pretty usual in this house.

A trip in to Edinburgh to see the ‘In Orcadia’ exhibition at the Royal Academy. Worth the juggling to see Samantha Clark’s work up close to appreciate the scale and intricacy of it. www.royalscottishacademy.org/exhibitions/...

This afternoon’s soundtrack is strong winds, fence panels falling over and the sound effects from Game Builder Garage.

Saturday morning C64 time (again not an original). 8 year old happily playing Chips Challenge (a game 8 year old me played on my Atari Lynx).
