Loving life in the Basque Country, my adopted home. Football fan #LFC #AthleticClub. European. Coffee addict. Travel. Films. A little bit of everything.
Sometimes you take a photo but are so concentrated on the subject you don't realize what else is going on 😅 Love the couple in front of Puppy. 😁

Out and about walking in Bilbao so I had to pay Puppy a visit. 💚💚

It's not the Guggenheim but it's still great fun. El Peix d'Or by Frank Gehry near the Barceloneta beach in Barcelona.

Bits and bobs from today's walk in Bilbao (after visiting the flower market). Such a beautiful day!! 1/3

Sunday flower market in Bilbao. And no, I didn't buy any as I didn't want to carry them while continuing my walk. Plus, though I tried not to show it on the photos, it was heaving with people. 💐🌻🌷⚘

Statues ( and suitcase) to remember the Basque children who were evacuated from Santurce during the Spanish Civil War. Many of them went to the UK.

@wordsmithgetxo.bsky.social As you are the resident bird expert I need some help. Sorry the photos are so poor. I googled the first one so I know it's a Muscovy Duck but what is my little friend I met today on my way to Santurce??

Coming along nicely. The new mural in the plaza. #Romo #LasArenas #Getxo

What I love about this is how much it will piss Trump off!! 😂😂😂

Absolute no-brainer which book I was going to read next. A JAM fan since the energy of "In The City" and the cheekiness of "Batman Theme". Lucky enough to see them live in Cardiff in 1980. And after the sad news of Rick's passing. #RIPRick

Anne Glenconner's "Lady In Waiting" is a tough act to follow. Let's see what you've got Phyllida Law!! 😉

I know exactly why I bought this book!! I saw her on the Graham Norton Show (check it out on youtube) and she had everyone in stitches. (n.b. honeymoon in Paris 😂😂) and I'm pretty sure there'll be lots of great anecdotes in this book. #NowReading #Book6 #BooksIn2025

Matt Haig is always worth reading and I am definitely interested in anything that can help my mental health, anxiety, stress etc Easy to read in short chapters (so far), i think I'll finish this in a day, 2 at the most.

Some books have been patiently waiting on the shelf for years!!! This one is from 2008 🤦‍♀️ and I'm pretty sure I'll find even older ones as I work through the pile!! Still, better late than never!?!?

I used to love reading but really lost the habit so that's something I really want to get back into not least because I have 60+ books waiting to be read. 🤦‍♀️ Of course I'm starting with the newest ones. #NowReading #Book2 #BooksIn2025
