Just heard The Fairytale of New York on the radio- first Christmas tune of the season.
Whilst I’d love to be grumpy about it, I don’t have it in me- I love this song and the festive season is on the way 🎄🎅🏻⭐️

A very entertaining trip to the Principality with 11 tries scored- just a shame seven of them were by Argentina!
Nice to see LRZ back in a Wales jersey.

I’m currently watching the latest season of Strange New Worlds. Mostly it’s felt lacklustre & I’ve been disappointed.
However tonight I watched Through the Lens of Time & I was blown away.
It felt like the perfect combination of old & new trek.
I loved every second of it.

Ultra Processed People is blowing my mind.
I knew ultra processed food was bad for me (and everyone else), but learning just how damaging & addictive it is has been eye-opening.
It explains the struggles I have had with weight and food my whole life & that is empowering for change.

I don’t often watch the Bundesliga, but I’m glad I did tonight. Bayern Dortmund was a fantastic game!
Feel like Dortmund deserved a point for their second half performance.

Another trip to Cardiff means another chance to grab an excellent coffee.
Kin +Ilk in Pontcanna was the cafe of choice this morning. Excellent Colombian filter has fuelled my morning so far!

Visiting Berlin tonight courtesy of @okwonga.bsky.social.
Halfway through reading this sensational book & I want to leap on a plane to get engulfed in Berlin’s flurry of wild promises & eat some marzipan-mohn at a local cafe.
Taking my joy where I can & loving chilled Friday nights in my 40s!

Barbara Kingsolver’s Demon Copperhead is the best book I’ve read in years
A masterful coming of age tale channeling the dark, Dickensian world of David Copperfield into the systemic poverty of modern rural America,it gripped me for each of its 626 pages
Heartbreaking & spellbinding in equal parts

First run since February after various injuries. It felt really good to lace up, even for a short, easy jog.
Slow and steady is the key!

Today’s Lego how to draw masterpiece is Z Blob in his knight armour.
I made a controversial choice to add colour to what was a b&w line drawing in the original video.
The 8 year vote was split down the middle. It’s either ruined it or made it cooler.
You decide…

It’s the summer holidays, so of course I’m spending my days doing #Lego ‘how to draw’ tutorials.
Was actually quite pleased with this until child 1 informed me with disdain that it isn’t the Dream Hunter, but is in fact the Night Hunter and I had ruined it!

I’ve recently begun using a fountain pen for the first time since school.
What a revelation! It’s such a joy to write with- smooth, light and somehow makes my chicken-scratch more legible.
Also it looks great!
