I just went for a lovely birding walk in local Nature Reserve 2 and got inspired: with the help of the Merlin bird ID app I'm going to record all the birds I see/hear between 24/12/24 and 25/12/25. It'll be under the hashtag #2425YearOfBirding. Anyone want to join me?

I've just finished listening to The Magnus Archives. I got through all 200 episodes in around 6 months and I'm glad I didn't rush it. An absolutely phenomenal story with top notch writing, acting & soundscape. I highly recommend it! Now off to dive into AO3 fanfic 👁️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdiU...

Sun roasted potato. 🥔 Photo from my collection, 1954.

A pretty shorthaired calico cat reclining on her side and back in a strong window sunbeam that is baking across a carpeted surface. She is positively glowing in the light and it’s a gorgeous contrast to the stark edge of the sun where the carpet appears to become almost completely black. She’s in a rectangular island of light.

I've just bought a new (to me) laptop 😬 To be fair, I've had the one I'm using now for 5 years and it was secondhand - it's still going OK but struggles with graphics & gaming sometimes so this can become my backup machine. I've been planning to buy another for a while, but now it's done!

Happy Wednesday folks! It's all been happening this morning: I was going back inside from putting out laundry when I saw one neighbour & had a chat, then as they went inside another neighbour came home and *we* had a chat, and then Tesco turned up with our groceries😁 I'm glad it's a day off 👍

It has been suggested that calling Stephen Miller a “toadie” was hurtful, insulting, and just plain wrong.

Upon reflection, I agree. I hereby apologize to all toads.

Choose love.
Choose peace.
Choose kindness.
Choose to keep searching bookstores, crumbling castles, and dark parts of the forest for portals to other realms, where reading & sleeping are celebrated sports.

I would ask how that is comfortable, but of course the answer is simply, "Cat." 🤣

Not too bad but it's overcast & a bit windy. I was able to go out in a shirt & long shorts and I didn't get cold, so it's OK. Hope it brightens up in your part of the country soon.

Yes. I'm sorry if it didn't come through 💜

I just went for a little walk around the block to get some fresh air. Now I'm back I'm having my 2pm biscuit break early, because I'm a grown-up, and I can do what I like 😝
