It’s wonderful, isn’t it? There is a spectacular blend of natural beauty and remarkable engineering, which seems to work together surprisingly harmoniously.

My friends Joana & Gordon visited recently. Gordon lives with #dementia, and has become very quiet, but he sprung to life when he heard these musicians playing in the street, in York.
Absolutely beautiful 🤩 #smallbeautieshour #BecauseOfClem

Coffee mug with Flower Fairy Buttercup Fairy on it. (She is a child with a golden bob and a dress made of buttercup petals and yellow butterfly wings).

Miniature Cinderella coach made of pale wood, with a winter scene inside of children in woolly hats and scarves, and a deer and cottages.

Hello Bluesky friends. Even though the nights are drawing in and the mercury is falling, it’s lovely to see that there is still colour and life in the garden. #ThreadOfGold #BecauseOfClem #SmallBeautiesHour

A few bits of #TinyJoy from the last few days, at the tail end of #smallbeautieshour - know I've missed a bunch, but still plugging away, and appreciating everyone who contributes to the #threadofgold #becauseofclem
