Just devoured Automatic Noodle by @annaleen.bsky.social
A joyful treat, it made me think of Tampopo, one of my favourite films, and left me with a smile on my face

Just finished Woodworking by @emilystjams.bsky.social fantastic. I loved Abigail, and the other characters… they were messy and chaotic, and good-hearted. The story had me tearing up more than once. Bravo!!!

A challenging day in the Picos de Europa with our walking group, GMNaranco, the ascent up to El Cuetón was fine, the very steep down proved tough for tired legs. Gallery at johnwyke.smugmug.com/Mountains/Ou... #senderismo #hiking #mountains #picosdeeuropa #Asturias

Just finished this marvellous book from @adapalmer.bsky.social and would recommend it to everyone. It was illuminating, fascinating, funny, and thought-provoking. It has now led to an even bigger list of books to read. And the final chapters on progress were wonderfully optimistic.

The walking group I run in Asturias, GM Naranco, had a fine day going up Campigüeños, 1300m of ascent and a fine easy scramble to the top.
