Unexpected visitor at the top of our garden steps

One of our earliest and very best experiences after moving to Winchester was completely accidental. We'd booked a night at the theatre on the night of the Torchlight Parade and ended up with a front row seat standing at the bar as they all marched by! Tonight's march was quite a bit busier.

ABC News (amongst others) debunking the Tangerine Turkey in Chief's patently misleading comments. The cost of living in the US has continued to rise since he was inaugurated. I was in shock when I did a grocery shop with Mom in Texas last month. No idea how people are making ends meet.

When you put your back out so you can't sit or lie down comfortably what better way to pass the time than trying a new Nigella cake??

And we're supposed to just trust tech companies to build AI to replace millions of jobs done by humans today?

If you look closely you can see the dust angel left by the pigeon that hit the sliding door earlier. There's even an impression of its two tiny feet.

We just passed a delivery vehicle on the motorway with this strapline under their logo.

Husband asked me 'is that how you describe me to your friends?'.

It's official. They may try to take away our rights but we have the law (and a significant majority of the people) on our side.

The site of my grandparents' farm is now a Goodwill superstore, University campus and soulless apartments 😢

Local artist at work on a parking garage in my hometown. Red poppies are the town's symbol, and longhorn cattle are iconic symbols of Texas.

OMG I've only just twigged that @bertsbooks.bsky.social colour coordinate the ribbons on their shipments! ❤️ It's the little things that really set small businesses apart.

Books by @junodawson.bsky.social Tom Cox (sadly no longer on Bluesky) and AJ West (who I can't find).

Need to collect the 🌈!
