#Bunny loving #beekeeper. Eclectic taste in many things. Loves nature.
#Lancastrian born mixed with a good deal of #Scottish living.
#NHS Scotland worker.
We had the privilege of releasing 3 rescued 🦔 🦔🦔
Spring Roll (male), Frosty & Cuthbert (females) all have sad wee back stories, but the folk at Hessilhead nursed all back to great weight & shape.
Hopefully they will settle safely into the local surrounds

What better way to finish off a great afternoon’s #beekeeping, than with a bit of #forage (in the apiary) & then blitz up a #ramson (wild garlic) pesto / marinade & sip a bottle of refreshing #Perry

I find #mentoring very rewarding, but nipping to the #apiary yourself of an evening, for a quick job is a treat. Listening to all the sounds, smelling the glorious wild garlic & talking to the locals 🐑

The darker side of Easter. Places holding petting zoos with Rabbits . Pet shops & on line breeders selling rabbits to anyone to make a profit (they don’t make great pets for children). Most end up neglected, handed in to rescue centres or even abandoned outdoors. #notjustforeaster #adoptdontshop

Our Programme came to its formal end today. Our last Programme Board yesterday. A reflective session & forward planning with the magic professionals who made it possible. Now transitioning to fully embedded business as usual. It’s definitely been challenging, but also so rewarding.

Beautiful sunny morning for a catch up with our cousin at #JumblesResovoir❣️

Yesterday me & my sister made our own botanical infused gin at Defiance Distillery. Really enjoyed the time with her & the creativity. I’d mentioned it was appx 10yrs since I’d done something similar & this popped up on my timeline, exactly 10yrs 👻
Definitely learnt a lot about #gin in that 10yrs 🤭

What a better way to recognise #internationalwomensday than catching up with Carol, an aspirational woman in leadership who gives support & builds confidence in others without a second thought.
The peacocks were vocal & amazing, as were the grounds, especially the trees 🌳

A first for me today. I saw spawning frogs on my walk to work this morning. Usually it’s just the spawn.

The polar extremes of Glasgow City centre. Within a stride of each other.

Great night out with work colleagues, but this old’un needs her bed.

What a day. Sunshine ☀️ some gentle warmth & a brunch with the lovely Manira. Time flew by (and too much has flown by since we caught up). Won’t leave it as long next time.

Been doing some gentle spring clearing today. Especially where the spring bulbs are coming through & flowering. Love the Witch Hazel in all its subtle but look at me flowers. #springisnear

My day started with an early morning walk. By chance, I happened to look back, if I hadn’t I would have missed this peeking through the trees. It was starting to hail & sleet. Then breakfast & an 4 hour gab fest with a good friend.

What’s the opposite of Happy Bunnies? These 🐰🐰🐰 getting their health checks. They fought me to go in the carrier. Then were the most well behaved loving rabbits in the vets. They ran outside & into their hiding place when home. I will get #bunshun for weeks. Yet healthy for geriatric #rescuerabbits
