Got deluged on ten minutes before we were done battling with the garden trellis. Win some, lose some…

(Not sure exactly what the plant is, but it’s definitely a climber of some kind…)

Every time Altman opens his mouth I find reason to loathe him a little more. Every. Single. Time.

Robust trellis made of roofing laths supporting clematis that was sprawled on the ground a week ago. Section of the original trellis in foreground that has lasted a quarter of a century or thereabouts.

Clematis in a downpour, looking a bit wild and woolly but upright.

Been at the former parental abode racing against the rain to replace a non-standard collapsed trellis - roofing laths FTW.

Three viewings last week, another booked for next week, plus one second viewing booked. Fingers crossed…

😁 It’s stopped raining here…

View down into valley, which stops at a wall of fog/low cloud where the Howgills should be.

Bit murky today.

Needed my reading specs to fully appreciate that!

It was amazing for that instant I glimpsed it!

Soooo frustrating!

A rubbish pic showing a silvered blur of light in a night sky almost obscured by clouds. Beneath it are silhouettes of trees, and a carport in the foreground lit by warm light from windows at the other end of the house.

PROOF.

Glimpsed a crescent moon, sharp and slender as the deadliest ceremonial sickle. Grabbed a phone, and that little shit slid behind a bank of cloud as I pressed the camera button.

Ketchup shares will be soaring!

I’m formulating a theory that he doesn’t bottle up enough grievances to get stressed by them, but they all dribble out as verbal diarrhoea before pressure can build…

I’m sure a lot of them must, at least once a day.

I mostly think “Why hasn’t he burst a blood vessel yet?”

AND the last chance to get this book cheap(er)!

Last chance to get a cheap(er) book today!

A strangely reasonable description of the dissenting justices in the latest tariff decision.

Choose your own adventure.

And it’s not even the Ides of March yet.

That odd noise in the corner is hope, scratching at the wainscoting…

It's the quote that makes it.

It’s a lot shorter than all the formerly-known-as-prince variants

Okay, UK writers and book folk, we need to be talking about this. It’s a big (bad) deal.

Weirdly, even though it probably shouldn’t, this gives me hope for the future.
