Donald Trump returning to the White House will be deeply worrying for millions of people in the UK and around the world. With a President who promises trade wars, undermines NATO and praises Vladimir Putin, the threats to our national security and our economy are clear.

Had a lovely few days with a flying visit from our daughter. Walks in the frosty sunshine, out for lunch, coffee in the port and lots of chat about her wedding plans. Love family time with the wee girl. ❤️

Veggie tagine in the Ninja tonight. An hour in the fridge to marinade then 10 minutes on high pressure. A January favourite and half to freeze.

@mrsgl40.bsky.social good to see you here! It takes a while to rediscover the people you followed on the other place but it's worth it. Far more civilised.

Making a permanent move over here this week as I have closed my Twitter account. I've barely used it over the last year so it's no loss. This is so much nicer.

I LOVE spring! And the Merlin app. Out in the garden tidying up and these are the birds singing in the garden in the last 10 minutes. Nature's symphony ❤️

Just checked in to Twitter to see if it's still a rancid cesspit, only to laugh till my sides ached at the headbangers theory that Kate Middleton has had a BBL. Seriously!? Stop sniffing the prit sticks.

Soring:The winter's gloom has lifted. The sun is shining,it's 17'. The birds are singing & feasting on nuts & seeds. Liam's planting bulbs,we are drinking good coffee & there's a curious,fat bumblebee investigating every bit of my left sleeve.
This morning feels like an awakening after slumbers.

When you're driving along and you hear a strange noise coming from the car's air-con vents... Then you find a baby frog under the bonnet. 😂

Humans, it seems, only ever learn from their own experience, never (or never deeply) from someone else's. Like a child told not to touch the hot oven. We understand it intellectually, but we don't feel it. We don't feel someone else's pain, fear, or failure. So we touch.
