Oh as a young woman in the 80s, white stilettos were de rigueur.

Cold blue winter sky, pine woods, reed beds and a tidal pool with Brant geese, and teal and, in the foreground three mute swans.

#OnThisDay 6th December 2023. Salthouse Marshes on the North Norfolk Coast. Acres of reed beds, salt and freshwater pools, Brant geese, teal and mute swans. I was there with Aldo and not another person in sight. Bliss!

I will have to watch it. Maybe in short chunks.

This needs to happen!

Oh Barry is such a little cutie!

I don’t have a big following but I’m happy to share anyway. Every little helps….

I haven’t watched the programme yet as I knew it would make me cross and I needed to be able to sleep last night. I will watch it on iPlayer tomorrow. I have so much admiration for @zackpolanski.bsky.social and the eloquence and raw honesty with which he speaks.

There should definitely have been chickens in the original nativity stable.

Close up of a white and tan spaniel mix dog sleeping on a brown leather sofa with her head in a cream and brown striped cushion. She has a tan eye patch, a big patch under her ear which is covered in tan spots and white fluff between her toe beans. 😍

#OnThisDay 5th December 2023. Maggie having a lovely snooze. 😍

Ooh spooky!

They seem to feel frisky all year round don’t they. 🤣

I love looking out of train windows. It’s 100s of swans in the fields round here as we whizz along from Kings Lynn to Kings Cross across the Norfolk/Cambridgeshire fens.

Mr and Mrs Magpie were my #FirstBirdOfMyDay again this morning. I must remember to put my glasses on before I look out and I might see what all the little ones on the feeders are. Cold and sunny today and I’m stuck indoors at my desk ☹️

My language would’ve been far more polite and less impactful. 🤣

Nigel Farage, leader of the party who claim to care deeply about women’s equality, yesterday described bbc broadcaster Emma Barnett as a ‘lower grade’ presenter for asking questions about his alleged historic H*tler fanboying.

You’ve said exactly what I was going to but much more eloquently.

I don’t understand why so many ‘normal, middle of the road’ people admire him and intend to vote Reform. How can they be so blind?

🤣

Waiting months or years for a diagnosis, therapy and medication, whilst mental health declines is a direct cause of many young people being unable to complete their education and enter the workforce. So many are in limbo and the further they fall, the longer it takes them to climb back up.

#OnThisDay 4th December 2012 We loved this car at the time. It was brilliant in some ways, we could drive it anywhere, it pulled the trailer, carted muddy dogs and feral kids around. But it was noisy, uncomfortable, hot, cold, gas guzzling, heavy. Got an EV now.🤣

Is was so pleased to see a blackbird in the garden this morning, turning over fallen leaves, looking for breakfast. #FirstBirdOfMyDay

I noticed this too as I drove to pick up my daughter from the bus. It seemed to be delaying nightfall. Beautiful.

The pair of magpies were first to be seen this morning, flapping away as I opened the back door. #FirstBirdOfMyDay

Small white and tan spaniel sitting down wearing Father Christmas head boppers, a red collar and a playful expression. She’s sitting on a red, cream and blue patterned Indian silk rug. There is a green, supermarket carrier bag with a design of herbs on it in the background together with a small, wooden chest of drawers.

#OnThisDay 3rd December 2020. Maggie very pleased to be wearing Father Christmas head boppers.

Thank you. He’s such a handsome dog, but then I’m biased!

Aldo. 😍

We kept the receipts. These comments, taken together, paint a picture of the man he is today.

So lovely. 🥰
