Today's lecture. 😳

Oceanova · He fits on a fingertip — smaller than a coin, lighter than a raindrop. A baby octopus, only days old, drifting through a world vast enough to swallow him whole.

Morning. Snipe in rain, Ohara Koson.

I've been eating like a pig all weekend, so I'm following this little star's good example. It's on with the lycra and off to the gym! 💪 🏋️‍♀️

The townsfolk all stopped and stared; they didn’t know the tall stranger who rode calmly through their midst, but they did know the reign of terror had ended.

Old photo: St Peter's, Melverley in Shropshire, is a rare example of a timber-framed church, believed to be the oldest in England. It was reconstructed in 1406, after being burnt down by the forces of Owain Glyndŵr - it stands on the banks of the river Vyrnwy, which forms the Welsh border here.

Nice one @mrjamesob.bsky.social 😆 #ReformUK #Nigelfarage

I just love this carving found at the remarkable St. Oswald's in Ashbourne, Derbyshire. I think that it is a dormouse(?) - the form from the bestiary. It is quite apt for our doom scrolling world because it symbolises a drifting from attentiveness or participation in life.

Terracotta tile panel, Pierhead Building, Cardiff Docks "Wrth ddur a thân" ("by water and fire") - the Welsh motto of the Cardiff Railway Company. External panel symbolising the industrial transport network, conveying Welsh coal, that the steam railway & docks were part of. #TilesOnTuesday

Happy Thick Trunk Tuesday 🌿🍃🍃 #Trees #TreeClub #ThickTrunkTuesday

Rare treat these days: a walk to town and a glass of Malbec for lunch. Cheers,chaps.

Art of the ancient Americas may not be your thing, but you have to love this earthenware crab vessel. I'm sorry, I don't make the rules. 🦀 This is going into our imaginary museum replica store, pronto. #LACMA Colombia, Calima style, Ilama period, ca. 1500 BCE-100 CE. 🏺 1/ 📸 me

Jam! I've used up last year's stash. Now working my way through my 2025 crop of freezer fruit. Today: raspberry. 😋

...but still, a fab day out and home to a stunner of a sunset.

Splendid day out in Lydney Park with pals. Yes, I did forget my coat and had to borrow one. 🙄 Yes, we did spend so long over coffee and Roman remains we missed the lunch service and ended up with fish n chips in a Marston's. 🙄 And I did then have to drive all the way up to Hereford for MinLaw 🙄 ...

I think it may be a bumper year for " William Morris ". 😍

Hot out of the oven : puff pastry gooseberry tart, made with last year's home made jam from our own garden fruit. Yes, I'm on MinLaw duty again this weekend. 👩‍🍳 👩‍⚕️

This is an ancient Egyptian cosmetics holder in the shape of a very cute hedgehog. It’s made from glazed pottery. The wry sideways glance from the hedgehog is, as the youth say, sending me. 🕰️664BC-332BC 🏛️📷 BM

Seagull facts: The record for the largest number of sandwiches stolen by a seagull in one day is 74. The Chinese word for seagull translates as "the beaked horse who stares". The robust digestive system of seagulls allows them to eat many things weaker birds cannot, including multisockets & kettles.

Bom dia, bom sábado para todos 🙏🕊️🌦️👥🌿

LIFE RULES: Insulate your house with books to ward off evil Oppose the zombie AI apocalypse Never click on a link to the Daily Mail Use double the recommended amount of garlic Always stop to say hi to sheep And to horses too (but in a fake posh voice) I think that's more or less everything covered?

Morning, good people of BSky. I call this one "Spring flowers and cat".

I am interrupting your doom scrolling to show you some lichen under my macro lens. Okay, carry on.

Want.

Always worth a listen to Alex and the trusty QR crew.

A reminder that this is why we make fun of The Odyssey. The book would not exist if Odysseus was not such a complete chaos goblin who was busy causing problems for himself by arguing with Gods and being a shit navigator. There is no way to make an extremely serious movie out of this material.

Right, I'm off out! First stop, Neil James' butchers, Raglan, for award winning sausages. Next, a trip to the convenience-sized Tesco for veg and supplies. This afternoon, a festival of bakery. Then a teatime trip up to MinLaw's to offer up all those goodies, and then help her to bed. 😇

Does anyone know if you can get a version of jackdaws who'd dry and style your hair in the mornings?
