My stepdaughter's tribute to Beatrix Potter, which used to adorn the postbox in Hawkshead until Royal Mail turned it into one of these new-fangled solar power things.

Ah, Autumn, season of mists and mellow fruitfulness, and barmy weather forecasts from the Daily Express 😊

Hi Nic, I thought you might enjoy my stepdaughter's crocheted Beatrix Potter postbox topper, currently adorning a postbox in Hawkshead, Cumbria.

Exuding menace here.

Nonsense, it's A Grand Day Out!

Which portal will we go through today?

A small thing but I enjoyed watching this today. Something quite uplifting about just watching a bee bumbling about 😊

I didn't vote Labour, and I have issues with some of Starmer's domestic policies, but it has to be said that he's looked every bit the serious statesman this last week. So good to see Britain playing a leading role in Europe again. I feel proud to be British, and it's a while since I felt that 😊.

Going to pick it up later 😊

My rather feeble attempt at a photo doesn't even begin to do it justice 😊

A rather rubbish picture of the moon, Venus , and the village Xmas tree 😊
