An aged and impecunious barrister. Bisexual, not an intellectual. He/him.
The black and white moth on the cover of @tkingfisher.com’s What Feasts at Night has bought me an extra 20 mins of reading since the baby woke up because he’s fascinated by it. Marketing hack?

I do enjoy finding a book that’s been extravagantly highlighted for its first… nine pages and then left utterly unmarked (one suspects unread) the rest of the way.

Our very first ever quince harvest.

My first ever merlin on Merlin.

What perfect albums came out when you were 16?*

*No retroactive cool, please. Albums that were in the house that you actively purchased and listened to.

"Perfect" is a stretch for most of these, I think () is the only one that I'd still say that about, but I stand by them all in 2025.

I got bit by an ostrich that day.

Tucked exceedingly well away in a climbing hydrangea. Call this an excuse not to mow my back yard until July.

Ok, but how much wood *can* a woodchuck chuck?

(We have been very concerted in trying to be hospitable to wildlife, and I’m delighted to see our first ever groundhog, who’s now chomping down on dandelion seed heads.)

Whoa, does Aonishiki have a Kieth Haring piece on the front of his kesho-mawashi? Very cool.

You know I think I do have some feedback…

I was going to move a quince but the ground is still frozen around it, so next weekend for that. But! 2025’s very first blossom of any kind.

First really good sap day this year.

2025 is just doing funny little classes at the local craft studio to keep the world at bay for a few hours at a time.

Feeling at home, I would say. In this house you have to find space among the books or you just won’t last.

New cat day in our house. Meet Bede, who’s being soft-launched to our black cats from the third bedroom. Initial signs seem very positive.
