I just did a brilliant Manifesting workshop that involved such amazing women, and lots of dancing. It was a fab way to spend a rainy afternoon in January ❤️

If it's Cary Grant's birthday, it must surely be time for me to post the "puppy in the jacket pocket" picture again. Be rude not to, really.

I appear to have both Golf and tennis elbow at the same time, is this possible? All I know is my arm hurts most of the time and I can't grip as strongly as I could. Anyone had this?

This is the reason you're getting so many diverse posts from me these days. I'm seeing such interesting, or beautiful stuff now! And I love sharing it ❤️

Found this website this morning, useful as a starting point if you’re trying to boycott American goods and services, which we absolutely all should! https://www.goeuropean.org

I really love enthusiasts, particularly one's that are so articulate about their pet project. Plus trains, who doesn't like trains?

In case you are wondering, the story behind this photo is that these two dogs had borrowed their mum's car for the first time & were trying to persuade me to drop what I was doing & go & break into a tennis ball factory with them. The little brown one even "did the eyes" at me but I stayed strong.

I doubt I will ever see a more inspired bit of upcycling.

First success of the day, coming back to bed with a book, my journal, and a cup of tea. And remedering to take that lovely first sip when it's at exactly the right temperature. Morning!

An excellent thread of very excellent dogs. Read the alt text to see why they so very excellent.

This makes sense

I went out onto my extra side garden, which was cleared last year and made accessible this year, this afternoon and dug up two thistles, brought up a couple of plants in pots to sit in the sun. And then arranged some rocks and shells in a pattern.

See my hellebores which I have not killed yet!

I am very interested in Canada and China right now. Some weird kind of hope.

It's so deeply disappointing how Right-wing many formerly anti-establishment rock stars have become in old age, not to mention protective of their so-called "property". Take Roger Daltrey from The Who, for example, who marched me haughtily off his land just after I took this photograph of him.

Oops Clipped off the important bit

Shitting myself now, in case Trump invades Northumberland to get my 25m swimming certificate.

Sometimes you read an obituary and ask why have I not heard of this person? Dr Renfrew Christie used University research to help the ANC to try to prevent Apartheid South Africa from getting the Bomb, including smuggling critical information into a confession the judge would read in court! Hero.

Done ♥️

Ugh, work is a bit pants and I am wondering when do I stop? I'm 68 this year, but what do you live on if you don't work?

This will cheer you up 👇

A small film of spring flowers from my garden because we recover from stress 60% more quickly when we look at plants & if we find them beautiful our brains release dopamine, lifting mood. Pause for a few moments to help your synaptic soup 🌿🧠:
