Gradually listening to the Conclave audiobook on journeys home from school. Want to finish it before watching the film but it's taking too long!!

Wish they'd done a history themed Playmobil version of this when I was a kid..think my little ones will be arguing over who gets to open the 1st December!

School (my work) closed today..floods clearly devastating for many. But for me, it meant I got to do school drop off and pick up with my girls, which is about as rare as it gets. Kisses goodbye and a running hug to say hello. My heart hurts. Amazing how rarity increases value, for experiences too!

Deep relief sculpture. Can't get enough of it.

Especially nice moment from trip to Rome. Descending at night to Roman street level into the tucked away, empty, atmospheric, gloriously frescoed -
Basilica dei Santi Vitale. Only in Rome would a like this be empty. unnoticed by most walking past.

Smashing group ride this morning. Loved trading attacks with the guys today. The Saturday morning Bath CC club ride is such a great physical and mental health tonic with such good people.

An extra special nice thing happened this half term. I took my Mum and Dad for their first trip to Rome. It was such a joy to take them. They always made me feel so safe and loved and fostered my passions and interests and were endlessly patient. Love you Mum and Dad.

This is my account for saying nice things. My adopted rules for posting are
T - is it true?
H - is it helpful?
I - is it inspirational?
N - is it necessary?
K - is it kind?
I hope BlueSky turns out to be a nice place full of nice people...anyone else feeling like this?
