Having lived by the River Thames for the past two decades, I sometimes forget how GORGEOUS a vast expanse of sea can be. The view from Meadfoot Beach ❤️

Went to the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition today and these were my favourite shots. (Alas, as always, not one chinchilla. Bastards.)

Going into this rather weird Monday with the energy of my chinchilla squeaking with joy in his new paper-bag burrow.

Just had a Creme Egg. I've no idea what it tasted of, but it certainly wasn't chocolate. There are four more in this box but I don't think I'll ever eat another one 😞 Shame on you, Cadbury, for selling your soul to the tasteless Yanks.

Oh yes, look at him, all cute and fluffy and sleepy on my knees. It's hard to believe that just five minutes ago, this sweet little bundle of fur just BIT ME ON THE BOOB and ran away. 😡

Covid is kicking my arse 🤧 - but at least today I have just enough brainpower to curl up on my beanbag with a good book and thank heavens for The Expanse ❤️

The Eagle might suffice. Excellent film, based on an excellent book!

Just watched the absolutely INSANEPANTS comedy Hundreds Of Beavers on Prime. It made me howl with laughter. I have genuinely never seen a film like it.

This dog looks like Judi Dench.

All of these are fake! Went to an exhibition in Kensington today of replica Japanese food. Absolutely mind-boggling detail. Left feeling very hungry, especially for the Scooby burger.

Friday's squirrel. (My first on Bluesky!) He sat on my lap and I stroked his little head. Amazing how close you can get to these fluffs if you give them enough nuts. Suckers 😉
