Just moving here from the cesspit that was Twitter. Embracing retirement in the friendly town of Brightlingsea. Love dogs especially black & tan terriers of any size.

PLEASE HELP by keeping an eye out, sharing & letting me & the #police know if you see this car…My black #AlfaRomeo #Giulia, reg (if not changed) OE67 DCF, was #stolen from Aylesbury, #Bucks last night - the car I don’t care about but I’d really like back my #birdwatching #optics hidden in the boot.

The irony - we had a very brief (1 minute) power cut a couple of hours ago and the "smart" meter is still having problems getting data.

I missed this gorgeous pic when Colm first posted it. My hut is up near the tower in the top right-hand corner. #Brightlingsea

I caught the end of the @bbc5live.bsky.social overnight show this morning. Apparently the (male) presenter caught flu at the weekend but it only lasted a day. This was despite him having had 3 covid jabs. I despair.

I'm so pleased that it's not just me who doesn't understand the John Lewis Christmas advert.

What are companies going to call the actual 12 Days of Christmas? Just musing. #12DaysOfChristmas

It's a not-so-lovely day here on the Essex Sunshine (!) Coast. Day 4 of no sun but it should appear on Saturday.

The owners of Gatehouse Farm have a fabulous tree in their garden every year and everyone travelling into or out of Brightlingsea gets to enjoy it. Once it goes up we know the countdown to Christmas has started. Great photo by Chris.

I'm trying to watch the fabulous Asia programme on BBC1 but it's so sad in places that I have to keep changing channels. What have we done to the planet 😞

Finally, here's my 1st skeet & it's mainly to say hello to all my furfriends who've come here from the other place. Here are a few pics of Airedales who employed me as a PA well before mobile phones or digital cameras existed!
