I’ll back you on the Extra extra subspecies suggestion

Lovely! I do like a Burns song - I’ve been indoctrinated by my Ayrshire partner. Eddi Reader’s album of his songs gets frequent plays here.

Cocktail Hour - a stovetop negroni - espresso made with red vermouth instead of water; Campari; gin; twist of orange.

And rightfully so!

Productive rainy Sunday. Lego pigeon.

Oh no! Always use the hand guard thingy.

I think it might be a hooded crow. Saw lots of them on a trip to Skye

Nice part of town. My choir sang in Frognerkirke when we visited.

Brygg is also excellent for beers. Had some very potent stout there on a choir trip last year.

Posthallen is fun for cocktails/mocktails. In the old post office

Zipped through this deliciously macabre novella this afternoon - first I’ve read with a music playlist and cocktail recipes included

Two tea loaves freshly baked out the oven. In a cast iron tin from netherton foundry

I did say there might be cake.

I’ll have to dig one out of the archive to be sure, but maybe a6 paper?

Here’s a bonus hoopoe

Thank you! I’ve just invested in some new tools, so likely more on the way
