Join me in sharing a photo from nature that YOU took and say where you took it. Let’s remind ourselves of the beauty of nature amid all the global chaos.

Here is mine taken in Bosnia. #nature #mentalwelbeing #photogtaphy #mindfulness #escapethechaos #Bosnia #beauty

Fascinating trip to Bosnia Herzegovinia. The Mostar bridge blown up in the Balkan war was rebuilt in 2004. Locals were annoyed Prince Charles opened the new bridge when it was Princess Diana who did so much to bring the world’s attention to the horrors of the conflict and stood in the minefield!

A new nursery rhyme:

Watch out boys they don’t want you toys

Watch out girls they don’t want your curls

Here come the bullies #Putin and #Xi

To harvest your organs to live to 153

😱😱😱😱

I’m seriously concerned as a seasoned journalist (old school learnt my trade on a type writer even) to see the BBC is using Ai to edit articles. Seriously?

Think you’d enjoy it but also probably fume at! But honestly is good - a history of women in healthcare over the centuries written by a medic. And if feeling too tired to read much this is an excellent collection of short anecdotes of the lives of women through objects.

Ah yes that’s standard though to see if working. I was previously diagnosed (wrongly) with ME & Fibro & remember all the gaslighting. I’m still in pain and fatigue nut hEDS is at least believed. Women in pain are so poorly treated. Have you read this book?

Is Dr Shields at UCL?This was me wearing a heavy metal frame that they screwed into my skull in 4 places. While the surgery has fixed my unbearable trigeminal neuralgia the procedure has left me worse off with migraines and clusters. They said I could have botox but “the list is closed” 😳

Fantastic Myanmar scrolls exhibition currently on #SOAS #UOL library. It tells the story of the Saffron Uprising by the monks & nuns against the junta regime. And explains the archaic rules for nuns. With audio readings by monks

My daughter is co-curator. So proud of you Lauren!

On a visit to NYC at the start of Trump’s first term I saw an amazing exhib on #Stonewall #LGBTQ+ history. I’m guessing this will never happen this time as he crushes all diversity. So thought I’d share images from that exhibition💪🏼 pls share!
