A bit of Tudoring in the rain. Thanks very much Little Moreton Hall folk, this treasure of a place is as warm, welcoming and fabulously wonky as 30 years ago ♥️👍🏼

Thanks @Bristolcathedral fab, unique, dancing in my favourite sacred Bristol spots. Wondered a few times what my 8x great granddad, memorialised there made of it all. Peak moment was indie-ing to the Stone Roses, surrounded by folk belting out Wham! 😂

A (rare) bit of blogging and mandala-making, celebrating Ancestral Lineage Healing and its fruitfulness. Belated Happy Lammas all northern hemisphere folk!

Garden flowers for the beloved wise ancestors 🙏🏼 These are also for everyone in the world today and tomorrow who can’t bury their dead, can’t take them flowers, cos they’re in the midst of famine, genocide or they’re en route to a better life. May the ancestors surround them with love and strength.

Joanna Macy 1929 - 2025. Hats off to you and your might life - thanks 🙏🏼 Stepped outside and a newly popped hibiscus flower, all rain-bejewelled and gorgeous, was swaying in the breeze. Reminds me of your life. May we all keep on keeping on, practising with and for all that lives ❤️🌍💪🏼

Stunning buck moon, all salmon pink and huge against the deep lilac (still very warm) Bristol sky. Everything’s miraculous for a minute.

Portcullis panic. Hoping and praying the gatekeepers a) can tell we’re local plebs, rather than rebel noblesses b) have run out of hot oil 🙃

First light garden-pottering (miraculously, the mollusc kin, partying in last night’s welcome rain, didn’t eat all the plant babies 😅)

This book baby is (unbelievably) 9 today. Thx to all of you who’ve had a read. Thx to those of you who’ve taken time to let me know it’s been helpful - which has (to my inclusive gladness), included parents and those who are childless through circumstance, loss and happenstance rather than choice.

Seeing Arron Banks (standing as the Reform mayor) in Bristol with a bazooka (complete with US flag) “trained on the Labour, Green and Lib Dem goons that have wrecked Bristol," sharpens the mind.

A twilight ancestral walkabout last night in Bristol, retracing the steps of my great granddad, working as a wood carving apprentice (on the far right of this photo.) The love of wood crafting carried on through my Nana and Dad… Thanks for your life on your b’day Harry, 109 years ago today 🙏🏼 🥰

I love the NHS too. Hats off to awesome heath care workers 🙏🏼 Received calming news after two nail biting weeks. All love to the folk I met today who didn’t get calm-making results - the fragility and beauty and sorrow of it all. (And thx to Penfolds cafe for the lush cuppa after days of weird food)
