Born a Monkey Hanger and now an adopted Smoggy, living in Billingham, Teesside (double "E", double "S" - I'll whinge if you spell it wrong!).
Way to go, La Voix and Aljaz, the new Fred and Ginger - you got my #Strictly vote. Along with Lewis and Katya, JoJo and Alex, Amber and Nikita, Karen and Carlos. You have to be in the final and the new hostess with the modest🤣.

I always wanted to make a Holly wreath, thanks to Stockton-on-Tees Borough council's Preston Park museum, I finally got the chance.

One more for the #BirdOfTheDay theme of #StandingOnThings just under the wire. This crow landed on the hood of my car and gave me stink eye through the windshield for 6 minutes straight while I munched on an Egg McMuffin in a McD's parking lot. Too judgy.

This London monument is so poignant: Animals in War; "They had no choice." 2 gun-laden warhorses approach a breach in boundary wall between living & dead (1-3); once through they're freed of burdens; they're able to run free. @lightacandle.bsky.social @tonylarch.bsky.social @tjmiddleton.bsky.social
![Both bronze horses are pack-animals; the one closest to the opening has been burdened with a wheeled gun carriage [Someone has left a wreath of red poppies propped up between the wheels. Attached is a dedication message, which depicts a terror.] The horse's ears are laid back, as if it senses danger. The wall clearly represents the barrier between life and death on the battlefield.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6bo6atjcihepmtcbvpnlly2m/bafkreihvprc7hcbafg7isrlp52i5xig6ovlkpdwbps7ffw3cn6uaqdq6eq@jpeg)

#Strictly, I was born a Poolie, but for most of my life I have been a Smoggy. Voting for a Geordie, should be unthinkable - but Vicky and Kai, were so good. I voted for Teesside's Smoggy Queen - La Voix. Sadly I missed Lewis (the Poolie/Monkey Hanger), so wasn't able to vote for him.

"One world we all come from, one world will melt into one. My sun shall rise in the east and so shall my heart be at peace". On a cold Saturday afternoon, I went to show solidarity with those who were celebrating #Diwali in Middlesbrough. It was well attended, possibly more than the previous year

Tess n Claudia 2 leave #Strictly? It's a 10 from me! Time 4 the #BBC to employ presenters who have personality, who can read a poor script and make it sound funny. They'd be nothing without autocues, they wudn't have a clue how 2 ad li, make it up. Also time #BBC employed better script writers.

Not being racist or religious, I'm off to support the Diwali celebrations in Middlesbrough's Centre Square. I'll reserve judgement on those who put their lives at risk to cross the ocean, until I know their story.

Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council's Preston Park is already for Halloween - broomsticks, scarecrows, Hogwarts Sorting Hat has multiplied and can be found in the old Victorian street, along with pumpkins and skeletons.
