Being dropped off at a little countryside station at daft o’clock to make my way down to the @barrowcadbury.bsky.social office in the big city is a joy on a morning like this!

Yesterday, I made chocolate brownies for Kiki Dee (No.2 in my occasional series of “Chocolate Cakes I Have Baked For Pop Stars”). She commented that they were good, and did an awesome version of Amoureuse after knocking back a glass of red wine. I would like to be her when I’m 78.

Any day with poetry in it is a good one. A day with Ayan Aden, #Birmingham’s poet laureate, in it is special.

Some Southern hemisphere star gazing! Incredible. Haven’t seen a night sky like this since trekking in Nepal in 2009. Amazing what a lack of light pollution can reveal.

Over years, I made lots of granny squares before boredom set in on each project. A pal finally offered to crochet them into a blanket for me. It took me 18 months to remember to find them & another year to take them 5 minutes up the road and drop them off… picked the blanket up today. #proud #ADHD

I’ve tidied AND dusted AND hoovered the bedroom. Unless you know what an #ADHD bedroom has the potential to be like, this will seem like an inconsequential thing. I even put John’s laundry away (but only after I managed to do mine). #allevening #floordrobe #dogsofbluesky

9 hours, 4 films, so many laughs! Godzilla A Go Go 2 at The Quad in Derby. Just fabulous! Godzilla vs Hedorah was almost as mindbendingly bonkers as #Godzilla vs Mothra. Almost.

Ah, insomnia. Sometimes it’s just every crap thing that’s ever happened to me going around in my head as I lie twitching in bed. And sometimes I clean the kitchen! Like with actual floor mopping and shit. #adhdresult
