Unusual for Rosie to be sleeping beside me… she’s usually very keen on having plenty of personal space.

I thought an espresso martini was exactly what was needed on a chilly late November evening. The sun set half an hour ago… so it’s allowed.

Every time I go past here I wonder… was it?
Anyway… whether it was, or whether it wasn’t, it‘s a bit of a boring block of flats; but it’s got your name on it markhamillofficial.bsky.social

I know I’m in the minority, but I do like the tri-mirror look, it puts the finishing touch to a dressing table. This was my French bedroom, large admittedly.

Found a picture of the Spring window display in our #Whitstable shop. Dated 30.3.2017 at 10:32 opening time.
Mmmm… Spring…
There are probably more on my pc, but I don’t really use that anymore. I never updated windows10, so there’s a lot of stuff that won’t open.
