I’m part of a large group who’ve known each other for over thirty years, there’s 23 of us. We all live in Europe, so we organise what we call a Gathering of the Clans, somewhere different every two years. We all take turns organising the venue. WhatsApp group is always good value.

One of my biggest concerns too. The UK has experienced significant loss of its plants, animals & fungi over many decades. One of the most nature depleted countries on earth, yet the wing nuts out there continue to be platformed whilst spouting absolute nonsense in relation to both cause & solution.

Swings like this are very concerning.

Minus 14 with me on Saturday. I was walking the dog in shorts and a thin fleece this afternoon.

They never fail to impress. HNY to you and yours Jakki 🥃

This is my vibe today. That weird time of year where no one knows what day or time it is.
