I'm a gardener.

"Oh, I've got a plant in my garden, I don't know what it's called but it doesn't look very healthy and never flowers much - what's wrong with it?"

A really wise and lovely friend once told me, when I was getting made redundant from my job of 15 years, that sometimes things happen which seem like bad things at the time, but turn out to be good things, because of what they lead to. He was so right.
May whatever you do next, be even better :)

This is great!

Some of my ancestors were Huguenot refugees, so any time someone's going on an anti-immigrant hate rant I say "My family were immigrants" specifically to get the awkward 'oh shit, wrong audience' shut-up response, not mentioning how lonnnnng ago those generations were, hah

We were talking about him at work yesterday - I think it says a lot about Ozzy that even the ones who really aren't into rock/metal still had great fondness for him as a person, reminiscing about the tv show, and how much they liked him. Non-fans joining the sadness that he's gone was kind of sweet.

Damiano David returns to the Rock Werchter stage, this time as a solo artist - here he is in miniature🖤

Time to catch up on recent Tiny Damianos!
Here's one for his performance of Born With A Broken Heart for Youtube channel The First Take

Yeah, wait and see seems to be the only option right now - at some point I can see it ending up with conditions so strict I just won't have accounts any more. I don't use my legal surname online, or in person (haven't for 30 years!), so the day any website 'needs' that ID is the day I stop using it.

Be interesting to see just how much I'm excluded from by not doing this, not that I use it to view adult content on purpose, but just where will it draw the line? Tumblr banned me for artistic 19th century nudes. A friend's blog made me confirm I was 18+ cos she swore a lot about crafts going badly!

Happy birthday, Tess!

Tiny Damiano David takes to the European festival stage again, this time playing at Meo Kalorama in Lisboa/Lisbon, Portugal

There was an extra live performance during Damiano's trip to Korea, which I only just found out about, oops! Here he is in miniature, with his little flower brooch on😊

Another live performance for Damiano David on his trip to Mexico City, this time a special showcase for fans at the Palacio Metropolitano

I did this all through the tightest lockdown here. When people were only allowed out for essential supplies, or only into the garden, when some didn't even have a garden. I posted flowers daily, for everyone who'd appreciate a bit of something pretty and sunny, for all the spring they were missing.

My favourite place is a huge nature reserve like a national park, it has native horses living wild. They've come to know and trust me, don't mind me being there among the herd, and some of them even count me as a friend now - one likes to lick me, another loves shoulder-scratches. I fit in there☺️
