Clues, Comedic Moments and Creativity: Bloody Scotland Festival 2025
If you’ve never been to Bloody Scotland Festival before, which took place in the Scottish city of Stirling for the 14th time from 12 until 14 September 2025, you might not realise just how much fun…

It seems to be World Octopus Day today! If you haven't watched My Octopus Teacher on Netflix yet, it's a fascinating watch 🐙💚https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/81045007?preventIntent=true
Watch My Octopus Teacher | Netflix Official Site
A filmmaker forges an unusual friendship with an octopus living in a South African kelp forest, learning as the animal shares the mysteries of her world.

True and yeah, I understand how it's meant, I just often visit places during unusually busy times and feel I have an unrealistic impression based on it. I'm glad Glasgow lives up to the hype year round in all the best ways though (at least imho 😅).

Haha! Shrewsbury is such a nice town though, but I've only ever visited during the folk fest when I feel it was mostly the opposite 😅🎻🎉

At the local library:
Do you have a #translatedbooks section?
Polish books?
No, books in English translated from other languages.
Urdu?
Never mind.

Great idea! Anything that acknowledges progress is so helpful. Just back from Bloody Scotland, which was so motivating again, and scheduling those sorts of events for me definitely helps keeping going!
