Christmas brings out the child in all of us 🎄❤️, reminding us that wonder never fades.

Magic, resilience, and sparkle all in one tree 🌟💫🎁💚🤍.

The Hunger Games: Oxford
Behind the satire is a serious concern. Oxford will be divided into districts, with a congested bypass linking them, once passes used.
The districts may be fictional, but the disruption, is real. We’re challenging this legally gofund.me/84fde38f6.
Oxford deserves better🌘

Summer’s packed its bags, but my flowers missed the memo and still they dance, graceful and defiant, in the final kisses of sunlight.
A quiet rebellion of colour as autumn settles in 🌸

I came across this online and it made me smile:
“If people don’t like you, it’s okay. You only need to be concerned when dogs don’t like you—then it’s time for some reflection.”
Poppy approves of me, so I must be doing something right 🐾♥️

Blenheim Palace from Above 🏛️
Due to restoration works, we ascended to the rooftop at Blenheim for breathtaking views.
Inside, I met Bacchus🍇, smiling with grapes & proud of his rosé legacy. Lunch at the Orangery was lovely, but the wine stole the show🍷. I suspect Bacchus had a hand in the pairing.

The butterfly floats like a whisper of new beginnings. The bee buzzes with purpose, grounded and determined. They move so differently, yet both are beautiful to me, each playing their part in the rhythm of nature. 🦋🐝
