Just wanted to say thank you to everyone involved in the @DurhamCathedral.bsky.social service, for the 200th anniversary of modern rail, on Thursday eve. I loved my journey to and from Durham by @LNER.co.uk and the service was beautiful. Thanks Ed Turner for alerting me to it.

I’ve been getting the *bus* rather than taking the car in the glorious weather we’ve had lately and I’m saving up my @BetterPoints.bsky.social for an @bookshop-org-uk.bsky.social gift card to spend on myself.

She’s gotta ticket to ride! 🎶🎸 Nearly got enough @betterpoints.bsky.social for a York Gift Card - for walking to the supermarket and taking the bus to town rather than the car.

This morning I have been peeling @zaitoun.bsky.social almonds for a spinach and almond curry. Thinking about those hungry Gazans all the time while I’m doing it.

My lovely #sproud pea milk alternative has arrived. Now I can enjoy a really nutritionally-balanced breakfast with an oat cereal and pea-based milk. Far superior nutritionally than oat milk on oat cereal. #climate

I go for canned mackerel in tomato sauce to help my old bones. How bad is this?

Encouraged to get back on my trike for @Bike_Week . Love riding on this local cycle path for leisure - and going to my local #ExploreYork Library. Not exactly a #BikeHero but I’m trying! @iTravelYork

We must do what we can to stop climate breakdown. To me the next most important thing is the loss of livelihood of people who grow these products. I will miss my chocolate but the people who produce it are going to be far worse off than me!

Yesterday I was mainly peeling beautiful Palestinian almonds from @zaytouncic.bsky.social to make a tagine. It tasted fantastic!

This day I have been mostly peeling #zaytoun almonds. (‘This week I have been mostly … ‘ is a reference to the amazingly funny UK Fast Show of 1994.) If I was good at gifs there are plenty of this Fast Show sketch but I’m not!

This evening’s tv watching will be the first episode of #Virdee , A A Dhand’s great detective novel set in #Bradford . It was shown on BBC One on Monday. Can’t wait!

Love all the #MalabarHouse novels by @vaseemkhanuk.bsky.social and am enjoying this one just as much. Khan’s heroine Persis is such a perfect example of an Indian policewoman.

Feel so much better now the sun was out! - on my daily walk this morning. Recorded two European robins conversing and one chiff-chaff looking for a mate. Pic from last October.

I love doing this jigsaw by @LaurenceKingPub of The World of Charles Dickens. The artwork is fabulous - & it’s fun finding all the characters. #Dickens

Beautiful blackbird with bright yellow beak on our fence this morning. Wish I was clever enough to get a picture but alas it moved too quickly. Hope this picture of a dunnock, although taken a while ago, will cheer your morning.

I can’t promise what you have Charlie but we’ve arranged a 2-week trip across on a ferry from Hull to Rotterdam then train to Hamburg. Next a hybrid powered ship to Iceland via the Faroes. So we have one week in Iceland then we’ve had to fly back to Heathrow. So only fly one way. #FlyLess2025

Programmes about #TheShippingForecast yesterday on @bbcradio4.bsky.social in the UK reminded me to read one of Maria Adolfsson’s #Doggerland crime novels again. She has imagined a real contemporary island on Dogger Bank and I love her flawed hero, Karen. Next 3 translated please!

To all prospective followers. Please post something which tells me a bit more about you. Then I’ll willingly follow you if we’re in the same mind. Here’s mine. My over-holiday Lego & Raspberry Pi computer project (unfinished).

This is a really important set of children’s lectures. And, because they are aimed at children, everything is explained so I can learn from it. We all need to understand food better. @madifinlay.bsky.social

Did an #HourofCode yesterday on my #RaspberryPi . Getting an upgrade to Raspberry Pi 4 at Christmas. Can’t wait to do a Rasp Pi powered Lego project this holiday!

When I’m not walking, to gain @BetterPoints to buy books, I’m tricycling on my 1980s tricycle which gains me points too.
