I just love how cheerful the courgette flowers are, greeting the sun in the morning.

I was "drying the tent" before putting it away 🤦‍♀️😆

At least I don't think I need to water the plants today 🌧️🌾🪴

We've nearly finished our Expo Bingo - should have made it harder!

Only the geese to go...

The world is a bit shit at the moment, so currently inward focused survival mode is activated.

Beautiful rose in my garden (the rose bush has looked after itself this year so I'm surprised anything has sprouted). Its scent is gorgeous, and reminds me of my grandad's garden in my childhood.

Why I can't do my homework (sorry).

No cheating. Post the last photo of your pet.

This is Douglas, as he's so very sure of himself and his position.

I remind the kids often that I provide them with their aeroplane....

He's either just being really snuggly or is planning to scoop out my brains with his claws. I can't quite decide.

A lovely morning at the community farm. Ice still on the cavalero nero leaves when we picked them. Trays of onion seeds planted up in the polytunnels. Hot tea to warm chilly fingers. Some unexpectedly solemn discussion that has lingered with me.

Snuggling up as if he hadn't just been reported to me for sleeping in someone's else's garden and worrying them that he was homeless!

My teens cause fewer issues (but shh let's not tempt fate...)

Which way is up? This photo I took on our walk this afternoon intrigued me, sky or water?

You'd think there was a limit to how many pictures I could take of a slepy cute cat but it appears not.

I suspect I'm jealous.

"taking your bike for a walk?"

Yes, haha very funny. This very important bit sheared off this important bit, at the farthest most point of my journey.

My bike repair kit being about as useful as a plaster at a major trauma, bike totally kaputt for time being and an unexpected journey on foot.

INSET day so bonus #boardgames before returning to the work/school grind

First book of 2025 - actually, it's a continuation from last year, but it's what I'm reading today.

Lovely postbox topper in Ashtead. Is this just a UK phenomenon I wonder?

"I am not impressed with this behaviour and there will be no more of it".

The cat has confiscated his brush. He prefers to remain tangled.

Fine.

Three hour training session online - do I have enough to get me through?

Why I love my tween: I put the kettle on, and then wander off to rummage in the shed for chain degreaser. Shortly after he shouts 'the tea fairy has made some tea'.

Never underestimate the caring shown in simple actions, and the impact it has on others.

This plant is usually just green leaves, but every so often it redeems itself and pops up a gorgeous flower for a few weeks.
