One year since I posted this. One year since everybody treated it like a joke. One year of watching my back. Tell me: have you seen much of Harry Styles this past year? Tim Davie's gone a bit quiet too, hasn't he?

🎁🎄 A dry Boxing Day for the county with long spells of sunshine developing after a cloudy start to the day for some places. A northeasterly breeze but not as strong as today. 5°C.

Merry Christmas to all!

This is the 15th year of #DuvetKnowItsChristmas, which is preposterous. Rules: if you find yourself dealing with unusual / claustrophobic / gaudy sleeping arrangements this Christmas Eve, share a picture with the world. Use the hashtag (with capitalisation) and cc me if you can be bothered.

The complete #abstractadvent25 with thanks to @artpedagogy.bsky.social for the inspiration!

🎄 A dry Christmas Day 2025 in the county with some long spells of sunshine. 5°C but a northeasterly breeze gusting around 30-35mph will give a windchill feel of freezing or just below.

Rain now approaching the county from the southeast as the latest radar loop shows. A wet Sunday evening to come.

Dec. 21 is the shortest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. Susan Cooper, who wrote the solstice poem "The Shortest Day," collaborated with illustrator Carson Ellis on a new picture book. From the NPR archives.

For the eternal optimists it’s the first day of summer tomorrow 🥳🌳

“Climate action” is just another way to say “we want our beautiful complex planet to continue to be a good place to live, and to continue to be both beautiful and complex”. So much climate damage comes from assuming that Earth is simple, that it is easy to control and that it will bend to our will.
