Love this old coppiced tree. And a dawgle…

Something compelled me to make this

No-one seems to have noticed, but many of the core developments in the Mandelson/Epstein story these last few days have been broken on this website. @pickardje.bsky.social and @petergeoghegan.bsky.social are both posting each breaking development on BlueSky, not X.

#InBretsWeTrust 😆 #DuaLipa knows. France's chipsier of choice.

Delivered this to the customer yesterday…good thing I don’t charge by the number of swear words.

😍

Among the many gorgeous stained-glass windows at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City, the ones dominated by blue are my favorites. Yesterday, John Simko gave a tour of them, "Brilliant Walls of Light," shedding new perspectives on their history and beauty.

Sainte-Chapelle, Paris, 2023. It’s a dark and rainy day in Portland, Oregon, and I felt the need for some color in my life. I think this fits the bill. #Photography #Architecture #Interior #Paris #France 📷

I know it’s been a while (sorry) and it’s not even great light to show you, but I’ve just finished my first embroidery of 2026. 😊 I hope it was with the wait and that you enjoy!🪡🌿🦉✨ *Completely freehand stitched, no pattern, paints or sketch. #stitchedart #thesewingsongbird

Happy #SuperbOwl 🦉 Sunday to all who celebrate.

grab yourselves a disturbingly fabulous bargain!!

Abandoning an employee in a war zone is exactly what I expect from someone horrible like Jeff Bezos. FFS people, stop giving Amazon your money.

I know which of the two (Theil/ Thunberg) is like an anti-Christ. (Hint. It isn’t Thunberg).

Guys, the sky has gone a funny colour in the Cantal and there's this weird light. Does anyone know if this is normal?

The war in Europe continues. This is Day 1445 of Russia's attempt to erase Ukraine from the map & destroy its language and culture. The genocide continues as I type, with a massive missile attack underway. For all the news as it happens, keep checking back. This is THE daily🧵

I’ve managed to fix The Times Magazine cover for this weekend. Hope this helps. 😊

"When No.10 says the prime minister has full confidence in Morgan McSweeney, we know of course it’s actually Morgan McSweeney declaring the prime minister has full confidence in Morgan McSweeney. The trouble is, he probably does: because Morgan McSweeney has advised him accordingly" 👇😂

But… but is there *ANY* way this could be a woman’s fault…?

Contented #Caturday Rainy and windy so snoozing appears to be Rufus's preferred option. 😽

I think Marina Hyde is absolutely right about where the focus is and where it should be.

I'll take a picture of the whole thing after I wash it, but I just finished the binding on this quilt tonight and here I'm showing it off to @paultobin.bsky.social !

To save others checking, his mum is 68... and looks wonderful. 😁

Yes. Just like health warnings in cigarette packets...

FFS Go over the Kamala's Bsky account and follower her if you have not.. Come on people! bsky.app/profile/kama...

A little bear figurine carved out of amber some 6,000 years ago 🐻❤️ A hole runs through the bear’s torso suggesting it was threaded on a cord, perhaps worn or carried as a protective charm. Found in a peat bog near Słupsk, Poland, in 1887. 📷 National Museum in Szczecin #FindsFriday #Archaeology

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Yes, quite. It's the biggest scandal of this administration, so far, probably. It's an average Tuesday under Johnson.

Had a couple of balls of multi coloured wool left over from a project, so using it to create a "fake" fair isle jumper. Quite pleased with the effect. #knitsky #knit

Excellent news.

#BloomScrolling I'm still obsessed 😍 by the clumps of snowdrops in the garden...

#RoseWednesday - 2026 is just starting and how (according to 2025) we hope it will go this summer... 🌞

I'm totally pinching myself announcing this, but a film about my life journey rewilding a West Cork farm, An Irish Atlantic Rainforest, will get its first screening at the Dublin International Film Festival on Saturday the 28th of this month. Tickets are available here: www.diff.ie/programme/an...

No, your artificial lawn is not a "life hack". It's another tiny nail in the planet's coffin.

Did u know?A great use of old branches is to make them into a dead hedge. I weave my old large branches into the fabric of my rose arch. It minimises trips to the tip & creates a handy cat barrier,allowing birds to feed safely on seed we put down. Go on,go weave. It's fun to do too #deadhedge 🌿🌱🇬🇧🌱🌍🐦‍⬛

There is a great deal of anger about Mandelson understandably but the Tories did not investigate BJ when For.Sec when he attended a 'party' where 'there will be girls' organized by a Russian chum. Nigel F slides around without any ?s. Michele M is still in the HofL. 🙄

Looking up at the gloriously colourful interior of the central dome of Saint Aloysius Church on Rose Street in Glasgow. The church was built in 1910, while the interior was not completed until 1927. It was restored in 2004. #glasgow #architecture #church #architecturephotography

the snowdrops are returning 🤍🌱 my wildlife trio drawing 🐾 a donation from each print sale goes straight to Cotswolds Hunt Sabs 🤝

3rd Feb St Werburgh day. Protector of Chester. It was said she had restored a dead goose to life after it had been eaten, as recounted by the medieval hagiographer Goscelin. #Folklore

Another shot of yesterday's Pale Brindled Beauty. Last night, I left a light on in my greenhouse. Though I didn't expect any #moths to be out and about due to the strong winds, drizzle and 3°C temperature. However, I was very pleased to find two Early Moths NFG before I went to bed. #teammoth

I wrote this book after I and my family met a marine-biologist in the Caribbean engaged in a coral restoration project. He explained the devastating effects of the dying reefs, and I featured these seismic consequences in my eco-thriller #TheCoralProphet #BookSky amzn.eu/d/0gRRT1Bd
