Any UK mouse knowledge? Matt came home earlier today with this wee one cowering by outside front door. They were hiding from neighbour’s cat. Matt kept them safe, while they composed themself, before running into front garden foliage. We think a yellow-necked mouse, since we are South London?

My partner got me the BEST birthday gift! Pigeon poops soap 🐦💩🫧

You know when you’re having a “down” day. It feels pretty low. Randomly, someone came up to me, and said “I’m sorry to be weird, but your energy is really bright.” It made my day 🥰 I was crying yesterday.

I met up with friends in park during my lunch break today. When this one recognised me, and wanted attention / peanuts 🐦💚💜

Just came home from Art Club. Tonight we made moveable 2D puppets with only paper and split pins. There should be a market for Dr. Martens for pigeons 🐦🥾😅

March for Peace ✌️☮️✊ Central London. Good vibes, solid conversations, an overall grand day!

Ready for tomorrow’s march ✊

I’d been coveting an “oversized sweatshirt”, from Colourful Standard (£60). It felt too expensive. Went charity shop, and found a green sweatshirt in good nic for £9. Well pleased 💚

I LOVE today 🧡

I had a bit of a cancer scare. For two weeks I had some rather distressing symptoms, which my GP immediately took seriously, and ordered necessary tests. Results came back today - clear / negative 🙌 If you are experiencing worrying symptoms, no matter how embarrassing - get checked out.

Pigeons and a dinosaur 🐦🦕💚

Day four of learning watercolour painting and also channelling my inner @13pigeons.bsky.social with her amazing work using lots of lovely purple!!! Saw some artwork in Cornwall which inspired me to recreate that feeling of being fast and loose with colour and sketching. #watercolour #gull

Went park today to feed pigeons. Had the most endearing interaction with a young family with two little children. Both parents and kids were well gentle and “not afraid”, to help me feed the birds. It’s such a beautiful reminder that kindness exists in what feels like a troubling world 🐦💞☮️

I adore that Matt has adopted my notion that tea (whether type or mood) requires a specific mug. This time, his decaf tea is Canada mug 🫖

War child. Any of us…

Us and Pirate 🐦💞❤️‍🔥

Matt feeding the pigeons 🐦🥜🥰

Had lunch with my friend Sarah, then we fed the pigeons 🐦🤲😜

Just me trying to enjoy a hot chocolate in park on lunch break in sunshine… ☕️🐦🤪

Pigeon “leg day” at gym 🦵

Pigeons were SOOO hyper today 🐦🤪🌪️

Going through my archives… Found this when Matt was at his darkest cancer / chemo times.

This wee parcel will be going into post tomorrow - flying to a pigeon rescue in California 🐦💌🎁

Matt has become a Pigeon King 🐦👑💖 Naughty, loves being close to his face. And Matt, adores hearing her little breaths / snorfles in his ear 💞

This GORGEOUS woman too saw Gates fly down for new peanuts, and showed me this “casting call” bulletin. I’ll check the board tomorrow. We had a lovely chat. Her name was… started with a G, surname Bowie. She is involved with South London entertainment. Thank you 🙏 (Gates is in background)

Instead of people shouting abuse at me from cars. I had a lovely man roll down his car window to say “God bless you!”, as I was feeding Gates (a regular pigeon), by Bridge just now 🐦🥜🥰 (Not actual photo - just one for interest)

I was irresponsible & completely ran out of peanuts. I dipped into my posh, yet plain and shelled pistachios to feed the pigeons. They were not impressed. (At least the crows & woodie enjoyed) I’ve literally seen them eat the most undesirable things 🤮 - yet my expensive nuts were not good enough 😅

I just signed this petition to say no to 24-hour gambling in Crystal Palace. Take action here: actionnetwork.org/forms/petiti...

Our flat is still in a state. Finally however, got in the mood to make art - on our counter, by toaster… but hey ho 😅

Happy Valentine’s Day 🐦💞💘

Spent the morning at The V&A with work. While there a woman complimented my outfit. I managed an embarrassed “Thank you”, before blurting out “My coat cost £2!” Why am I like this 😅

This year has proven difficult to be creative. Our rotten windows are (finally) being replaced. Our entire flat is a tip. One window however, was mis-measured - hence the boarded up space. It’s now my big space. I’ll have some time to play… work in progress (which ultimately will be discarded).

My new favourite apple 🍎 Never heard of a ‘Cosmic Crisp’. But they are well nice.

Met up with a friend over from Canada, on business. No matter where we go she attracts men. We were outside a pub in central London, while she finished her cig, and three men started chatting. All I had to do was mention my husband is from Croydon, the men scarpered. I am a c*ckblock 🙌

I can’t remember the last time I bought a “brand new” article of clothing. I love a charity shop & hand me downs from Matt. My new favourite hobby is mending old clothes badly. It all started with a discarded expensive jumper from Matt’s closet - two holes, then covering paint marks with patches.

PIGEONS!

Glasgow pigeons 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🐦🩵

Took out recycling to bin. Walked along path passed our neighbours’ house, when I saw a Robin on ground - started chatting with them. Only to THEN notice neighbour was smoking on steps. I embarrassingly confessed I was talking to bird “like a weirdo”. He replied kindly, “I talk to birds too”. 💚

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

🖕🧊

Chilly, wet day. Loads of pigeons came to feed. Naughty (on my shoulder), is so comfortable with me now that when she’s full up, she will simply cuddle into my neck - she even did the pigeon feather shake at one point. The other pigeon in foreground, followed me ALL the way onto High Street.

Rotting windows getting installed, while suffering a chest infection / allergies this whole week… Finally feeling human today, so went to see park pigeons - Naughty was pleased 🐦💜💚

You guys I have bought some gold leaf and I fear it's about to become my whole thing™️ One hopes I will become more proficient at applying it!

Played around with inking and rolling technique and look at that, so pleased with how they're turning out! Snail next? Or beetle? #lino #art #slugs

Today we remember that sometimes love looks like refusing to comply #bearebel #pigeons #photography #memes #mlkjr #love #ungovernable

It’s so strange visiting a friend who has a well insulated flat. I wore what I normally do - base layer, long johns, double socks, waffle jumper, and hat… I WAS BOILING!!! They were in a t-shirt and baggy trousers, while their partner in a dress. 😅

I have been wanting a large studio in which to simply… go mad. This sort of opportunity happened tonight. Our decrepit windows have started to be replaced. They made a mistake on one… My canvas for the next couple weeks.
