It’s gonna be faaab. #shoplocal

This is a very good bank holiday.

Super excited for this. Bigger and better in its third year, come along and support fantastic local businesses. Magdalen Road is a fab place to be every day of the year but on this day, it will be extra special.

Lordii sings 'Save all your kisses for me' AM I TRIPPING?!

Austrian interval.BRING ON THE DANCING HORSES #Eurovision

Can Austria win it two years in a row? #Eurovision

This was a vintage Eurovision year. I swear the songs got better as my bottle got emptier...

Greece. My eyes are bleeding #Eurovision

Albania. Chain mail is due a comeback #Eurovision

Germany. The 80 called and they want their hairography back.. #Eurovision

Denmark. Classic #Eurovision Love it.

Do you think they'll have the dancing horses? #Eurovision #Vienna

OMG, it in Vienna? One of my FAVOURITE CITIES EVER

Gardensky I have just dug this beautiful fellow up in my allotment. What is he? 😍

TIL Liz Leffman is 77 and 1. I need to know what moisturiser she uses 2. Crikey thank you for your service 3. I hope I have as much energy as her at 77. 4. Doesn't she deserve a rest now?

Yes but hear me out. What if he loses a by election?! 👀

Today has been a shocker but tonight there was a bar with happy hour and chips. I'll take it.

Thank you, councillor for everything you’ve done, and your resilience. I hope you get a break now. Heaven only knows you’ve earned it. 200 kids rode safely through the city yesterday in no small part because of improvements you’d made.

I have ruined my sleep patterns #elections

Sleep deprived observation on Oxford election results. 🧵 You know the saying ‘never doiubt they a group of committed individuals can change the world, because it’s the only thing that ever has’ ? Well I see that in Oxford right now- apolitical / progressive thoughts..

Thank you to @oxlivstreets.bsky.social for highlighting our campaign to build a playground in the city centre. Don't forget to vote tomorrow!

Huh nearly forgot I’m marshalling this. Oops. Should be a good one :)

Today has been a shocker but there is a dog on the train for me to pet so I reckon all is well.

Politico parent trauma: school has put the signup for after school clubs (which are harder to get into than sodding Glastonbury and require being online at precisely 6pm) ON POLLING DAY. ☠️ Please send sympathy.

For some in Oxford, spring is signalled not by May Morning, or the swifts returning, but a very different phenomenon - the arrival of mangoes to the Cowley Road. This is the primer you never knew you needed, on Oxford's (not so) hidden seasonal fruit.

Greenhouse 1 is ready for planting. A tomato has self seeded from last year, so I reckon it can stay #DarwinianPlanting #allotmentlife

The weather has turned so the daily struggle to put sunscreen on a small red headed boy has started. Thoughts and prayers please.

Uh oh. Lego.

This should be on all the leaflets. Hardly controversial. *hard stare at some candidates*

I cannot even with this story

Gardeners of bluesky, when are we putting tomatoes in greenhouses? Thermometer said -0.8, but I have leggy triffids in my house...

Longest week ever. And it's only Tuesday. If anyone has any adulting tips, I'm all ears. Those bank holidays can't come soon enough.

Can't the council redact addresses on the internet, but make them available in person/ to developers/ officers? There has to be a happy medium here..

Homes not lab space. Thank you Oxford Lib Dems. I also note support for a city centre playground and (this should not be radical), public toilets..

Ironically, I got my child's long (long long long) awaited EHCP the day this was published. I advocate loudly - I dread to think how tough it must be for someone who doesn't know how to do this. Keep pushing @oxfordshirecc.bsky.social and @libdemsoxon.bsky.social Continued progress is much needed.

Went for sneaky drink at the bar in the rowing club at Donnington Bridge and there were two stunning greyhounds and now OMG I want a greyhound… SOFT EARS!

TFW you sidegigged too hard in the morning, sprinted for the train and are turning up at work with wonky train makeup slightly sweaty and unbrushed hair. WHY AM I LIKE THIS?!

Thank you Oxford Mail for publishing my letter. Fed up of candidates promising things their council has no chance of delivering in an attempt to get elected. It’s wrong.

I am still broken from the weekend’s allotment efforts. any recovery tips welcome. This could be a long season.

Cycle commute lessons. Today I used about four times as much makeup setting spray as I thought I needed and the full face has stayed in place. So there’s a thing. Sharing in case anyone else needs to know.

TFW you run out of energy halfway through the job

Just me and my lil’ hoe. #outdoorgym #allotmentlife

Fear of the plot inspection. Still. Spuds are in. #allotmentlife

Councils that declare climate emergencies but then do not follow it up with tangible actions… 👀

“What’s missing in the rest of the world is courage,” she said. “Mayors could say: ‘This is my opportunity [to leave a] legacy,’ but most will not dare.” @richardparkerwm.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Happy Easter everyone #sleepeetrainlife Anybody want my best sleeper train tips for travelling with kids? Reckon I got this down now.

So @seatsixtyone.bsky.social something to add to your Prague main station guide. There’s a children’s playground with a toilet right outside the main station in the park. Just turn right out the entrance and it’s visible, maybe 1min walk? Suitable for big and little kids.

Because it is Easter, and I'm in Eastern Europe, ducks are cheap. Because I got tired, I did not cook it as a meal. But I hate waste, so now, when I should be resting before Long Train Journey, I slow cooked it and potted it in a random jam jar for Train Snacks. Why am I like this?!

What do you bring back from your holidays? 😂😂😂😂

I miss bikes that are built just for the aesthetic. Where’d they all go?
