It seems the sky is bluer here. This was taken on a glorious day at Sandwood Bay in Scottish Highlands. We listened to Duncan Chisholm 'Dizzy Blue' as we sat on the dunes watching the vivid sky.

Windlestraw 1. A grass used for making ropes or for plaiting. 2. A tall, thin person. “The dwizzen old chap has become so frail and thin that his appearance calls to mind windlestraw swaying in the breeze.”

"Bright stalls, bursting with colour and carnival light, defy the smoggy shadows of Sheffield. Laughter and music cut through the gloom, a vibrant, temporary spark in the town's dark expanse."

@deanowens1.bsky.social is making an album with his band The Sinners - this is making a lot of folk who've enjoyed fantastic live performances very happy!✨️

Lots of quirky rewards on offer if you'd like to get involved... including the intriguing 'Secret Room' access 🤫 🕵️‍♀️

You know that magic ✨️
It was your enthusiasm that encouraged us to see them for the first time last year, thank you! I felt like I was enveloped in a gentle, warm musical hug last night. They shared some new songs too - just beautiful.

An actual quote from the Secretary of State for Business and Trade

Too often people go to university to ‘explore research and knowledge’

Look forward to Wes S saying 'too often people go to hospital to have operations' or Heidi Alexander saying 'too often people go to the station to catch a train'
