Loves running, cycling, hiking, science and maths. Hates fascism!
So due to boycotting Amazon (in the fight against fascism) I'm no longer buying books for my kindle. And today I learnt that I can join my local library online and that I can then reserve the books I want and they will email me to lmk when they've got them! And it's all free!

Two alternatives to driving! Or should it be 3? I'm not sure that little one is going anywhere fast though! 😹

This means we can guess what might come next and prepare - and we must!
