Today I found the most perfect dress in the charity shop. It is so gorgeous on. I will wear this for my @brokensleepbooks.bsky.social reading @poetrysociety.org.uk cafe on October 28th 🩷 I just hope it does not rain as it will be like wearing a huge sponge.

Just spent two hours trying to find a book I needed which was hidden in the depths of my IN NO ORDER bookcase.

Do visit the gallery of Images of Research at MMU to see all the exciting research from staff and PhDers. You can vote for your favourite. And you can see how beautiful Maquette for Garden Sculpture by Barbara Hepworth really is.

Charity shop dress, Erin, and a very sexy back to the dress which the speaker of my poems loves.

It has a bum like on moulin rouge - all frilly and short.
