I still love patchwork, I still hate custard and I still make a mean toffee apple. History, sleep support and who knows what else besides, all in beautiful East Lothian.
As a woman of course, my preferences are flighty and fickle and random.
What bollocks. What you are talking about here are PEOPLE

I know some parts of the internet would like to think Edinburgh in the autumn is all romantic and 'dark academia'.
Honestly.
It's chucking it down, people are coughing and it's only romantic if you have a thing for those see-through ponchos.....

Sunset picnic (hot, in a flask) on a Thursday evening, with skeins of geese overhead, reminds me why I live in East Lothian.

That's Victoria Street!
Both streets were added in the 19th century but Cockburn Street doesn't have that upper level.

Excited to be attending the @sleepactionorg.bsky.social conference today. Lovely to meet so many Sleep Counsellors and talk about supporting children and young people to thrive through healthy sleep. #SleepAction

Many years ago one of my kids drew this after hearing another corker on the radio.
I hope its not too faded to make out....

Homemade bunting.
Cheerfully coloured (but too stained/worn to donate) kids' clothes recycled and pulled out for Christmases and parties... at which everyone is welcomed and cherished and valued.

The Post Office powers that be don't think we need Haddington Post Office to continue at its current scale.
About that...

My little breakfast friend is sitting just out of reach and singing a soothing song while he decides just how close he dares come for his favourite digestive biscuit crumbs.

Nah, it happens in Edinburgh all the time....

Sometimes I lose sight of why I live in East Lothian and then I will be: oh, OK, right: THIS.
