More #Riga photos - sorry!

Arrived in Riga last night - just a couple of pics taken whilst exploring!

I’m supposed to be trying out a choir tonight - I was in a really good one before Covid closed it down and I really miss it. But the new one starts at 8.30 which is when I’m usually in my pjs relaxing, and today I’m so tired. But if I don’t go tonight I probably won’t go at all…

Men should stop being afraid of losing their "man card". I have a beard, wear flannel, love leading, and love football. I also love Taylor, enjoy cheesy Christmas films, and I'm a harlot for a good autumn candle.

We all contain multitudes, as Whitman once said. We mustn't be afraid to embrace them.

You’re welcome. If you can I’d go within the next couple of weeks. I don’t know how long they last

They’ve just started, and the wisteria is budding as well. In a week or two they will look so beautiful

Not heard of this before, nor read anything by this author but am excited to give it a try! #booksky (wish I could see the colours on the Kindle though!)

I wonder if there will ever be a time when women’s health conditions are actually researched and investigated instead of being attributed to “weight” or “hormones”?

Assuming that would be the Princess and the Pea but not sure why it’s in a frog?

Saw this in my library and thought, hey let’s see what the fuss is all about! #booksky

I’m on school holidays now and completed half of my to-do list. I think I’ve peaked. For the next two weeks you’ll find me crocheting and watching tv!

Bluebells growing in the shade by a path

A little photo dump from my walk today. A lot of the flowers I saw were growing in the shade - I’m sure there’s a profound statement in there somewhere!

I finished this last night. If anyone is looking for a lovely, gentle read them this is perfect! #booksky

Always!

In this book, she has captured the “show don’t tell” method perfectly, ripping our hearts with carefully crafted paragraphs that take a second to sink in. All I can say is, I can never read this book in public #SunriseontheReaping #booksky

So I just finished #SunriseontheReaping and all I can say is Suzanne Collins is a monster. If you’ve read The Hunger Games you know what’s coming, and yet you still keep reading. I am a mess rn - Rue, Prim, Finnick, none of them compare to this book #booktok

My local yarn shop/haberdashery is closing down in June 😞 🧶

Why do I have to work?! I just want to stay home, curled up in my reading chair, having Suzanne Collins break my heart over and over again #SunriseontheReaping #booktok

I’ve finally started Sunrise on the Reaping. I’m only up to chapter 7 - my heart is not going to survive this intact #booksky

But of a long shot but here goes: is there anyone here going to the Stitch Festival in London tomorrow, that’s booked onto the Finishing Techniques for Knitting and Crochet workshop?

I’m trying to find out what we need to bring, if anything?! 🧶 #crafting #crochet #StitchFestival2025

This sounds so cool!

Happy Wednesday!

Future-me is going to be so happy with present-me for making the bed up now instead of leaving until later!

Tea, cake and books

Treating myself to new books, tea and cake, definitely winning today! #booksky

Nooo!
