Train left the station at just the right moment of the finale of Sibelius No.5 on the radio, mirroring the swans taking off. Glorious.

Amazing what a whole day at home, with nothing more taxing than making dinner and watching the Winter Olympics can do. Strongly recommended.

I'm hugely excited about the return of the Bury Psalter to @stedscath.bsky.social; the donation of the manuscript to the Cathedral means that it can stay in Bury.

The next couple of weeks are essentially to be spent training garden birds to land here ahead of the RSPB bird watch.
