First year selling my art at Christmas without the Other site, where most of my sales came from, as well as losing US orders to new tariffs, so it'll be a tough one - I put huge work into every order, so even if you can't buy, shares help get them in front of eyes. GRMA! www.ciaraioch.com/artprints

These are the people Andi & I have been giving to regularly, as well as food, they also do blanket drives, clean water initiatives, clinic campaigns etc… The only thing that’s made me feel less helpless is helping.

I doubt there’ll ever be a time I don’t reread this one when it pops up, honestly one of the most beautiful tributes I’ve ever read

Can’t argue with anything in this short thread, absolutely spot on
This is Runcorn town centre. Huge buildings absolutely empty, derelict. Half empty shopping centre. Grandmothers chatting about their wee Johnny recovering from being stabbed.
This isn’t the fault of immigrants or refugees. This is 45 years of constant cuts and neglect from Westminster.

We still really need help, I know everything is terrible right now but if you can spare a few coins, our kitties would appreciate it so much ❤️
My little rescue for disabled and 'difficult' cats has some pretty big vet bills coming up. I'd love to book Rupert, Scooter and Widget in for their procedures but really need some help raising the cost.
As always, DM me if you'd like to see proof, I have vet estimates ❤️

Never been myself, but the amount I hear about this place shows how much joy it brings to people, it can’t be allowed to disappear just so a few landlords/developers can make a few quid

Well this place seems nice. Slowly rebuilding the list of accounts I actually liked from that other place. Will probably post just as infrequently as I did there as well
