Book shops, especially the small independents, are important gems on our high streets. Places of serendipity and discovery to be valued. Support them if you can.

Last night I watched the fantastic @ledbydonkeys.org by @sohotheatre.bsky.social Walthamstow, and today I watched #Panorama about the Met Police. Thank you for calling corruption, racism, misogyny and violence out.

Ten years ago today, I was off my face on drugs in central London as @uclh.bsky.social removed my cancerous bladder and fitted me with a #Neobladder. Today I celebrate 10 years cancer-free. Thankyou UCLH! #BladderCancer

I’m glad I went to the counter protest to #StandUpToRacism
Police say 110,000 attending ‘unite the kingdom’ rally in London, with some in crowd attacking officers – UK politics live

Thanks to @stagetext.bsky.social for providing captions for Fawlty Towers in the West End last night. @sohotheatre.bsky.social could learn from @nimaxtheatres.bsky.social & get captioned performances on so @elitelipreader.bsky.social & other #Deaf folk can access the new theatre in Walthamstow.

A big week beckons so how better to prepare than a spot of gardening? The dahlias I overwintered with mulch are appearing, the fuschias are in full bloom, the love-in-a-puff I grew from seed are starting to flower, and the dwarf roses are having a second wind.

Having sold and bought two years ago, which was a hellish experience that saw us pulling out of a house and taking an estate agent to the ombudsman, I’m not surprised by anything on #EstateAgentUndercover #Panorama

Another thrill-spilled day at Southend’s Adventure Island with @elitelipreader.bsky.social, Anna and 3 not-so smalls. No, that isn’t Trump and Musk on the ghost train.
