This current UK weather seems to be really great for the funky woodland mushrooms.
I love the mushrooms that look like they're just enormous mouths shouting as they pop out of the tree trunk 😂 🍄

I feel like today is the sort of day where teeny weenie cutie pie little mushrooms sprouting on a cool fallen log will bring me a sprinkle of joy, so I am sharing them with you too. 🍄🧡

I am just so in love with how amazing nature is when it just does its thing and we let it.
To get to see nature quietly being, can really soothe my soul.

2 mushrooms that look like huge ears growing happily on a tree trunk. Probably listening to the whispers of goblins and dog walkers as they go about their day.

We had a great protest day today, it felt very validating seeing so many people feeling the same outrage, and being able to find humour.
We shared tears and hugs with lovely American tourists too, it was fab :-) We are lucky to have this freedom 😊

Had a brilliant Wednesday afternoon, full of outrage, chanting, laughing & meeting awesome folk. It was powerful to watch #BillyBragg sing, & empowering to soak up the atmosphere with new friends met through #AmnestyInternational. Took this pic of a daft sign we passed 😂 #StopTrump #FuckStarmer

Trouble Over Bridgewater by Half Man Half Biscuit

The album cover for Trouble Over Bridgewater by Half Man Half Biscuit. The cover sort of looks like it's someone just about to do a skydive out of a plane. They're wearing a white jumpsuit and red parachute and you can see they're high above (maybe) the Wirral or possibly Bridgewater or the Bridgewater canal. I'm sure a purist would know and be happy to tell you in huge detail.

Just heard it's #FungiFriday so here's some cool mushrooms for a little respite from all the shite. 😊🍄
I took this back in October and I think this picture is SO yummy and nice for my brains and eyes that it makes my tummy dance, so I wanna share that funky feeling 😁

A grey and white cat caught in the middle of being up to no good whilst playing in a large paper bag. Her eyes are glowing a sort of metallic green as if trying to muster a laser beam.

Picture of the cover of Bob Marleys' album Legend. The photo is a colour close-up of Bob looking at something that's happening off to the side of us. It looks like what's happened is quite important he's got a sort of pensive expression on his face, and his hand is just by his lip like he's having a revolutionary thought...
