Sunset paddle in Lychett Bay, Poole Harbour. Oystercatchers and a starling murmuration. Magic.

Is it Spok in that episode where they go back in time to Chicago? Or Humphrey Bogart?
Don't worry about the news. There's nothing to be done about it.
The snowdrops are out and the days getting longer ๐Ÿ™‚

I know that feeling. Good plan to find quiet. Sending good thoughts your way

#Snowdrops at Chelsea Physic Garden, what a beautiful and extraordinary place. Over 300 years of #apothecary learning and training. #gardening #healing

Misericords, #Sherborne Abbey. The most wonderful caricatures, and of fellow monks I suspect... #arts #carving #oak

Yes, I know I'm lucky to live nearby! What a place to learn to paddle

I got some garlic in (2 kinds) replacing the rhubarb, which we never ate. A net to keep the birds off, and fingers crossed they grow ๐Ÿคž #gardening #uk

You could do Monarchs of England from 1066 onwards (a series?). There is also Formula 1, James Bond actors and comedians of note.
There's also American presidents pre 2000.
Hope something there inspires your muse...

I like this one better, not sure why, I think it may be the pointier head ๐Ÿ‘

Wimborne Minster, the setting for last Saturday's choir concert. The earliest parts of the Minster were built in 1080.
We sang Bach B minor Mass and Mozart Requiem, there was also an excellent orchestral suite by Christopher Dowie. Fantastic evening.

I don't know who they are, but I think they look a bit dodgy. It's the eye brows. It looks a bit like a rendering of a wanted person by a police artist.
Now there's a possible career path, Mr P!

It's very nice (and a little unusual) to sit at the #piano and think, 'What would I like to play right now?' Just for me.
Lots of the time I'm preparing things for work.
But sometimes, I'm not.

I'm with you on everything except the graveyards. I'd substitute graveyards for biscuits
