In April, a month after my mum died, I pinned a tweet to the top of my feed on X. I've been nervous about deleting my X account and never seeing that tweet again 😓. Then it occurred to me - I can pin it here instead, and I'll still see her whenever I log on. Miss you so much, Mum 💔

She was always so completely and confidently beautiful. RIP Diane Keaton 💔

I love watching them Chris. And I see them regularly on my local walks. I always find it quite spooky how all the other birds fall silent when the buzzards are flying around.

Gorgeous shots, Chris. We have a family of buzzards living near our park and they fly over daily - some days silently, other days squawking. I’ve never been able to get a decent photo.

I share a birthday with Neil Arthur 🥰

It’s got a whiff of the 80s about it - and that’s never a bad thing 👍

The warms temps in the Dales this year, have thrown up a tonne of weird and wonderful beasties that I’ve never encountered before.

Today’s offering is the western Conifer Seed Bug. Not a great pic but he moved and I freaked 🤣

I hate it when that happens. Do you ever wake yourself up by dribbling into your beard?

My Tulip Tree gives the most magnificent Autumn display. Not only do the leaves go a beautiful shade of gold, they also get tiger stripes 🐅

Everyone needs to take a look at their own baby photos. We all still look like ourselves as babies. We just grow up to be bigger versions. This girl looks absolutely nothing like Madeleine McCann. It’s clearly not her 🙄

It’s all go Kath! Hope you have a lovely time with your sis ❤️

Jesus. That’s terrible.

No viewings here yet, Kath, but park homes are niche so the viewings can be slow. I’m not in a rush to that’s fine. I’m making regular trips to Liverpool - got a few viewings over there on Tuesday, just to get an idea what’s about. Hope you’re having a rest from that pesky wallpaper today?!

One birthday, I asked my brother to buy me an album of his choice that he thought I needed in my collection. He bought me this (he’s a cool bro!) ❤️ Bron-y-aur Stomp was an instant fave 🥰 and the cover artwork is a masterpiece all on its own. Hours of fun 😊

Oh blimey. Welcome home!!! Bet you wish you hadn’t come back 😫
nicperrins.bsky.social
Wouldn’t have it any other way, right Kath? 🥰

It’s called Scissored Isle. One of my faves. There’s also Welcome to the places of my life - a two parter which I seem to remember was also great (old-school Alan). Did you see Strategem? Also diabolical 😓

I really need the loo 😫

What are the OTH and TDT, Jim?

You’re right, although I thought Mid Morning Matters, the one-off about Manchester, and Alpha Papa were all classic Partridge and hilarious. But I hated the spoof One Show thing more recently, and this new one didn’t make me laugh once 😓

Saxondale - also genius 👍

I’m fine thanks, Guy, other than being sleep deprived thanks to the noisy weather! Hope all’s well with you too x

In bed at 11pm. Awake at 1am, awake at 3am, awake at 4am. Coffee at 4.45am. Goddamn noisy weather 😡
