Friends on Bluesky. With no wifi I am having to limit my Bluesky interactions. No uploading photos, although I so want to show you the gorgeous places we are visiting, and no watching videos you all post 😟. All this will have to wait for decent wifi!

Such fun!

King Charles III told the US Congress that the same resolve shown after NATO invoked Article 5 following 9/11 is now needed to defend Ukraine and its people, linking today’s fight to a century of UK-US joint action in major wars and security crises. #Ukraine

And here we are 1525 days after the start of the 3 day war. Drones still attack cities, bombs still fall, children are still stolen, the media might be quiet but Ukraine we don't forget about you

Spring green gorgeousness ...

Veronique tells you a story of a young man in a war and reminds readers of the impact of war on families and children and the importance of remembrance. You will join her as she uncovers histories. Grab a brew, find a comfy chair and read with your mind and heart.

Just gorgeous ...

Read Aida's personal words of winter in Kyiv and her thoughts on painting. Her words will touch your heart.

Easy to send your MP a letter asking for their support.

Join me on this wintery lane for a moment ...

A quick reminder that I'll be running a walking tour in Glasgow next Sunday (26 April) starting at 10am and lasting 1.5 to 2 hours. It will be looking at the history and architecture of Buchanan Street and its surrounding areas. Cont./ #glasgow #walkingtour #architecture #glasgowhistory

These are my sort of street furniture!

A host of colourful tulips to brighten your day.

Good morning Bluesky friends ...

The second car I drove regularly. You couldn't use the glove box as it rained in!

The Derbyshire Dales captured beautifully ⏬️

The beautiful sculptural look of a winter tree.

Wonderful trees for Monday ..

We can't quite believe this⏬️ tiny bundle of joy is 40 years old today! Our son has become a loving and creative adult that we are so proud of. Today we look all of the 40 years older than this photograph 😊

Cycling is cool! 😊

What a special sunrise!

If you're that person that's not heard the brilliance that is a Rock 'n' Roll Suicide then today is your chance to be blown away!

Bluebell time is coming ...

Road tax by weight sounds fair.

❤️‍🔥 Supporting Ukraine is not "taking sides." It is refusing to accept that borders can be redrawn by bombs. Give in to the aggressor, and the law of the strongest becomes the only law. We don't normalise the unacceptable. We send #NAFO trucks! 👉 Join us: help99.co/patches/belg... 🛻

The leaves on the new silver birch tree have unfurled and are the greenest spring green. The leaves and flowers on the Rowan (2yrs with us) and the crab apple (6yrs with us) are also appearing. The flowers of the mock orange are abundant too. Natural beauty today in a #Lancashire #garden in #spring

A sort of HPS (Honey Positioning System).😊

I wish I'd spotted this giant cat of Dunbar 😊

The light and dark and definition of this photograph are amazing.

What a flourish on an already handsome building ...

The start of one of my favourite AA Milne poem. I used to know the whole thing (and it's long) off by heart when I was small.

Stop and moment and take a close look ...

The Little Black Hen

There is still a war in #Ukraine.

I can't watch this without flinching and feeling overwhelmed with sadness. #Ukraine

Hanging the washing in the garden, there is a strong smell of cannabis (not unusual in Morecambe but strange along our backs). It could be a neighbour with a new hobby but looking up I was hoping it wasn't one of the roofers on the house behind getting high while working high! 😃

Well, this is just beautiful ...

Not too squeezy #Lancashire squeeze stile with bonus Arnside Knott view from yesterday's walk @lakesstiles.bsky.social
