This girl! From having major spinal surgery earlier in the year, to running around like a pup again now. A few months off her 10th birthday and always a pup to us. The best thing we ever did was rescue her, thanks to Lurcher SOS. We love our Petal 😍

Only 3 days left to visit Hatch Somerset’s latest exhibition JOURNEYS, & to find The White Cello in the secret Somerset barn! 🎻
Put on the headphones, listen to the music & poetry, & maybe you’ll relate to the need to make time for yourself 🤍
Thanks for your lovely feedback about it yesterday.

I've been chatting with choristers from @choiroftheearth.com, hearing about their experiences of singing in this online choir & what it means to them. Might've had something in my eye when chatting with Vanessa! With all the constant negative news stories, these conversations brighten my days☀️
As well as learning and singing incredible works, Choir of the Earth is about friendship. Vanessa is in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and in this clip she shares what it means to her to sing with people from all across the world, online and at the in-person events we create 🎶

It's Punkie Night tonight! Hand me a mangle-wurzel! 😀
It was lovely to be back presenting on BBC Radio Somerset yesterday & chatting with Roger about the tradition of Punkie Night. He was brilliant at explaining it & he also shared some of his unusual family traditions. Jam doughnut bobbing anyone?

Willow weaving is so mindful when you get into a rhythm. I learned that when I visited Jo Entwistle at Bay Tree Willow (Somerset Open Studios Venue 24) in Barwick. We made a willow birdhouse together & Jo was a great teacher. Here’s a clip & our full chat is here www.besomerset.com/post/open-st...
