Interested in gardening, politics, art, cryptic crosswords, sport, wine and funny stuff, no particular order. Becoming more obsessed with birds, insect life and eco systems by the day.

What an extraordinary piece of engineering.

Falkirk Wheel, the only rotating boat lift in the world. It consists of two counterbalanced arms shaped like a Celtic double-headed axe that rotate around a central axis. It connects the Forth and Clyde Canal with the Union Canal in Scotland. (Time lapse) IG: @parametric.architecture

I once failed miserably at keeping one of these going, now I know why! What absurd requirements, but what a cracker.

Lloyds bank, blow out figures. They are coining it, as the country faces a huge cost of living crisis. A net interest margin of 3.19%. They pay very low interest to their savers, but rip the arse out of those in debt. If you keep an account with Lloyd's, think again.

Evening out in Bristol. A cracking tree, a motorway, a marvellous pub and a perfect pint of Bass.

Been quiet on here as busy in Bristol, deep cleaning out son's first home of his own. Very exciting for him and wonderful that we can now visit this great City and stay for free, after years of bnb and hotel bills. Putting up a few shelves and loo roll holders seems fair exchange. Time for a beer!

I just watched the supposed highlights of the Johua fight last night. Joshua can still punch but his chin is glass. A fight against Fury is a nonsense.

Beautiful oratory.

Ossoff: "Each day his allies are fewer & even they no longer deny his corruption, the obscene self-dealing while he plunges nation deeper into reckless war while he rakes in billions & builds himself ballroom & prepares again to attack elections. Let's be clear, one man attempted fraud in GA: Trump"

“By taking up the World Bank seat personally, Miliband is sending a clear signal that while other politicians even now argue against net zero policies, the Foreign Office will continue to drive climate action.” 👏👏👏👍 #ClimateCrisis #ClimateAction www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Omg this.

I'm on the train from Montréal to Toronto. There's just been a reminder that it is MANDATORY to use headphones when watching video. I can't believe this guys have resorted to legislation, rather than our system of having 75% of the carriage sit in murderous, futile rage.

We went to NT Felbrigg yesterday after some years gap. What a transformation. Beautiful dry garden planting and a gorgeous buttery.

Fabulous walk along Salthouse north Norfolk this morning. Meadow piping, ringed plover and Avocets ( with chicks) spotted.

We visited Kettles Yard in Cambridge yesterday, both the wonderful house and an exhibition of flower paintings in the beautiful gallery. Painting by Vanessa Bell, Cedric Morris, William Scott and Cassi Namoda stood out for me.

No arrivals by small boats for the last 10 days now. As of yesterday, 12,469 people had arrived so far this year across the Channel, down over 11,000 (47%) on the same time last year. More than 10% down on 2023 as well, which was when crossings were, by comparison to other years, lower.
