Suffice to say congratulations to Dame Sarah Mullaley, not an easy job to take in but I hope you will be well supported and effective in your ministry

Do they not realise what a poor witness their cattiness and bitching is? Or worse they know but do it anyway

Lots of quite predictable, ungracious and quite frankly childish remarks from certain corners of the CofE and Christianity more widely in the announcement of the new Archbishop of Canterbury…..

Christmas chutney/preserve/pickle making has begun

The laziest start to a holiday, hot tub mornings and chilled lunchtimes binging OMITB …. Perfect

Were you there in the 90s?

A very fleeting visit to Northern Ireland this week just for about 36 hrs…. Will definitely be back sometime/ beautiful place

Went to see Coldplay last week. They were unbelievably good.

I’m hooked

Made it to the weekend. Cheers all

Yup was just what I needed

A full English breakfast at an outdoor table at a local cafe, a book and a cup of tea on the side

A view of the local Aerodrome including police helicopter on the ground in the distance

View from the top of Redhill Common, the spire of St John’s church is visible

Kept my day off local and low key today. Treated myself to brunch at Hangar 9 and then went for a walk on Redhill common. Enjoying a relaxed day off

I also have a day off with no plans…. Probably gonna be a mix of reading and maybe a walk

Went for a swim this evening. I usually go in the morning before work, but for a change I went after work tonight, worth a try but think I’ll stick to my early morning swims going forward

Would love to have a holiday rn where I can just sleep enough and wake up feeling completely rested. Have all my meals cooked for me and a nice cosy place to read books, swim and just switch off for a bit

Brighton Pride march featuring a fabulous Queen

Love Louder than Hate banner at Pride. One in the background says ’Too fabulous to be marginalised’

Brighton Palace pier sign all lit up

View back in to Brighton from the pier

Lovely to spend the day in Brighton today. Seeing the Pride march going through the town was cool.

Sad to hear this…. The Jolly Postman was one of my favourite children’s books

Really enjoyed exploring Igtham Mote a few week ago. Trying to make more use of my @nationaltrust.org.uk membership

I stumbled across your podcast a few years back via a social media recommendation and I’m so glad I did, love your content, thanks for sharing!

Going in with the second series of shiney happy people……I’m sad, I’m dissolusioned but sadly hardly surprised by any of this shit anymore

The best texts to receive after giving blood @givebloodnhs.bsky.social

Yes it was a good adaptation- translated well on to the stage I thought

Theatre treat on a day off

I’ve made the no churn Pina colada cream recently and it is so good.

If Glastonbury was happening next year, I 100% guarantee this would be in a flag

Enjoying sitting in the garden at my parents making the most of it being cooler now because my flat is like a literal sauna.

Blood donated ….. snacks eaten.
My good deed done for the day

Oxford…. In England? How exciting
