They tell me I’m uncultured, but I’ll always recognise a bit of Beethoven.

My Dutch apple pies. #SundayPixSpice

Me: My pal just published a thing! Bk Club Friend: Would I like it? Me: Yes. Short stories, spanning 100 yrs. Lots of dialogue between engaging characters. Clever structure. Beautifully tender moments. Angst and anger. Love set against hatred. Politics and personalities. Reader, she borrowed it.

hi, fake fascist monument expert here! this is not funny, they only do this when they’re in extreme distress

And now home for a Nice Cup Of Tea for one in the garden.

Newent, Glos. Why not? And we were serenaded by a young chap busking, with a bit of Radiohead. Ex- medieval fishponds. Marshfield Farm ice cream. Can't go wrong.

It's Motown all the way in the car today!!

#BookSky #Prize Win a signed copy of Small Scenes in the Scheme of Things. The last story has a lyric: “You’re always tryna see yourself, through the eyes of someone else, too shy to say that you need help, you and everybody else.” What song? Who by? (Will need a post address)

Whoop, whoop! Look what the postie brung! 😊

I am experimenting. 🤓 Butternut squash brownie batter cooked in small portions to trial ingredient quantities, and fit in the little airfryer. Husband is v. sceptical.

Life with Trix. Fresh, warm roast chicken last night. 👎🏻 Cold roast chicken, shredded finely, next to her wet meat and dry food overnight. 👎🏻 Discarded leftover chicken thrown out for the birds on the lawn this morning. 😋 Fat bluebottle trapped inside the bedroom window. 😋

Rare view from my bed without Miss T 🐈‍⬛️! She's out on hedgewatch. Note the temporary addition of the bathroom peace lily, who is holidaying here for a few days of r&r / sunshine. The sky is a gorgeous blend of blues and greys, but my shoddy phone doesn't capture it! Have a splendid Thursday, all. 😁

I leave you tonight with a formative track from my youth. Watching the Iggster on The Old Grey Whistle Test blew my teenage mind. I hope he grows old ungracefully forever share.google/Bl4y6XjeCFKh...

Com'on Ivory Coast!!

Zverev Ger2 : this is not the way to get to the final 😞

😂😂😂 Gotta love Lemmy! This is my second fave rock story ever, Tom. My fave being Stuart Maconie asking Iggy Pop ( in a lift) if he minded if he smoked. Iggy : No, I don't. 😏

The OH. 😍

Absolutely necessary swanky lunch à deux.

All forms of housework are rendered more enjoyable - by at least 87% - by playing Radiohead at high volume. Fact. youtu.be/5c1lulf5Fkw?...

Dahlias becoming a hotel for frogs. Allison Lamb raises around 200 dahlias on her property and was delighted to discover that the blooms serve as a perfectly sized house for frogs. Original post

#FindsFriday hoping for a slightly cooler Friday than the rest of the week... Here is a jolly leaping Roman boar from the incredible Chester's Museum on Hadrian's Wall to see us all into the weekend 😊🐗 📷 My own 2025

Lettuce and dwarf zinnias sharing a grow bag. I think lettuce is beautiful in its own right. 😊

Free-range-organic-fresh-this-morning-crunchy-creamy-yumminess for lunch. 🥚 🍃 Takes me right back to those 1970s grandfather's salad patch lunches. And my sister's lazy effort at rinsing* where she'd leave whole spiders' nests and eggs lurking for the unsuspecting. * I thoroughly washed every leaf

Afternoon. share.google/MOKdm2biK8QN...

Stop scrolling! Have a break! How about a nice cup of tea and a bit of Gwen John?

My beloved Cardiff gave me a shady parking spot.
