As its valentines day i have a story Its a story about a close shave, an escape and some roman glass A few years back a chap started to try and romance me subtly on Twitter. I really wasn't bothered much but he was nice enough to talk to online and occasionally we would chat on the phone.

Good morning Sometimes you get a picture that looks like it's straight out of a ladybird book! Unfortunately this will not reflect the weather we are due today, biblical rain, this will not suit our visitors and our parking in the field Wish us luck! Have a warm dry day 🌱🌸

Sunset last night was apocalyptic

Good morning Last night i had an especially intense dream that i was having to share my house with an entity that was a conglomeration of all the controlling men id had in my life Highly unpleasant Then i remembered the reality ....

Good morning Yesterday was so lovely! Myddleton House really is such a special spring garden heres a few pictures to make your Sunday bright

February brings us closer to the return of bumblebees – you might be lucky enough to see some this month 🤞 Bumblebee queens emerge from hibernation in spring. Keep your eyes peeled this month for early emerging Tree and Buff-tailed bumblebees 👀 Have you spotted your first bumblebee of 2026?

@lindawhisky.bsky.social i worked out who it was, in 2020 i went round sending what i thought were nice supportive messages to people i considered Twitter friends They had a real go at me then blocked me, i guess they were going through a hard time and something i said upset them Still hurts 😢
