Hi All!
Here in the UK there was a huge fireworks event last weekend for Guy Fawkes’ Day.
None of the wildlife near me seem to have returned after that. The local dogs were totally freaked out.

A simply divine evening with @divinecomedyhq.bsky.social at the Barbican, spent sumptuously immersed in two hours of exquisite, emotionally intelligent songwriting, cinematic storytelling and lush orchestral arrangements.
