A nice bit of colour this morning here in Glastonbury. Photo taken from St Michael's tower on Glastonbury Tor shortly before sunrise.

There's something quite therapeutic about cleaning out a fish tank. Plus, there's the win you get when you clean to the bottom of the tank without getting your sleeves wet ๐Ÿ˜„

A bright white, glowing small bunny is sitting in a seashell, which is open on a beach, where the waves meet the shore. It is like a bunny of pearl

A bunny in the wilderness cooks a stir-fry over a portable stove. It is evening, and he's hung up a tarpaulin nearby for a campsite. A chipmunk and a raccoon wait eagerly for their food.

Good morning & good week from Greece ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ท

For our #orctober theme today hereโ€™s one from a new tour we have there in spring, the beautiful Ophrys aesculapii.

Please share your own #orctober pics throughout the month to make it a true floral festival (otherwise the feed will be full of orcs).

Tonightโ€™s Adventures in Cocktails with Andrew is the Celtic Honey Buck! We used rye I bought up in Toronto in the spring, Celtic Honey Liqueur, lime juice, and blood orange ginger beer. Very sippable, and not terribly sweet. And new socks have been started! ๐Ÿธ๐Ÿงถ

A mid blue to mid pink horizontal gradient background with a photo of my in my new Shawl in the centre two thirds. The photo is surrounded by a blush pink heart outline graphic stamp angled north west in the top left corner and a marginally smaller purple slightly translucent heart graphic under neath it (sitting on my left shoulder.)

There's a small blush heart graphic angled north east in the top right of the photo, a larger blush pink scribble heart graphic under that (just off my right shoulder) and a mid pink heart graphic angled north west placed at the top of my arm.

I take up most of the photo, an almost 50 year old with mid blonde/grey tinged straight thin hair pulled back into a ponytail (which you can't see) with no parting.

The all important shawl is draped over my shoulders mostly covering my blush pink pajamas. The shawl is a mixture of wools going from burnt orange at the bottom left, to blue/pink/lilac gradient wool, brick red, canary yellow, green to cream gradient, burnt orange, then burnt orange to cream and brick red gradient wool, back to the blue gradient wool, another stripe of brick red and the green gradient at the nape of my neck.  It's a hotch potch of colour using up the remainders of my wool stash. Very Boho/Hippy.

Going from the other side (bottom centre of the photo towards my right shoulder) it goes brick red, blue/pink/purple gradient, red/cream/burnt orange gradient, green/crema gradient, canary yellow, green/cream gradient, brick red, and green cream gradient (at my right shoulder at the bottom right of the photo.)

The stripes aren't all the same size but with the gradient wools it's difficult to see definite stripes. I'm giving a wide, straight smile because I'm really happy with the end result.

The Shawl is finished! Cue a very bleary eyed and still in my Pajamas photo ๐Ÿ˜‚ Now it's finished I've got a Knitting hangover, I'm really not sure how to fill my nights. I feel the urge to get the sewing machine out.

A dark blue to mid pink gradient background going left to right with a photo of a shoe cabinet in the middle third.  The cabinet has two square drawers that pull forward and down to get to the shoes, so there's a small gap at the top of the drawer faces to fit your fingers in.

The front faces are white laminated medium thickness wood. I have covered with top of the shoe cabinet with a new laminate because the top was exposed wood.

The new laminate design is made to look like pastel painted distressed wood. The stripes go from the front in ochre, then green, then ochre to brick red then green to brick red. The next stripe is all fir green, then back to the ochre row. This repeats for a row and then has a large denim blue stripe before going back to ochre. Then it works its way back to green and the next row has a dash of cobalt blue halfway through. The final row is brick red.

The whole thing looks quite good (no major bubbles) and I'm pretty pleased with the end result.

It's not perfect but my aim was to cover the plain wood because I've spilled stuff on it and I need a wipe clean surface going forward. My first time using sticky laminate stuff and I'm impressed.

Back to the knitting now! 40 more rows and the shawl is done ๐Ÿงถ

The full moon rises tomorrow, 6th October, at 5pm GMT. Itโ€™s a supermoon, named the Hunter or Harvest Moon. This particular full moon falls late this year, being well into October, and this is an excellent time to stop and breathe out for a few minutes. Enjoy the harvest.

Photo of flower. It is native to the humid forests of Costa Rica, El Salvador, Panama, and parts of Brazil. The flowers have a bladder-like structure and are pollinated by flies, which are temporarily trapped inside to ensure pollen collection and transfer.

Aristolochia Gigantea, commonly known as the Giant Dutchman's Pipe or Pelican Flower. This tropical vine is notable for its unusually large and distinctively shaped flowers. ๐ŸŒฑ

A human organ is what it reminds me of.

Bought #StrangeAntiquities yesterday. It's amazing! Working out what customers want is so much fun and the Book Nerd in me is REALLY enjoying checking in different books for various stuff ๐Ÿคฃ

I'm even loving the Dice game which seems to be an annoyance for some players.
