People just need to stop telling others how to use their social media. Tools are provided so you don't need to see the things you don't like.

Thank you for posting on Bluesky. Perhaps you could pressure the government to do so as well instead of the sewer that is X.

You need to keep the spindly spiders through the year. They are your friends for keeping the big spiders at bay.

Weirdly they were very direct on BBC news that it was nonsense. Clearly different teams of people.

My mini landscapes book is finished. Only had one hiccup where I sewed one bit upside down and had to unpick.

I get it from my mum, she turned her hand to so many different crafts and created some beautiful things. At the time I was busy with our family and working so didn't really appreciate how talented she was. I hope she would approve of my efforts if she were still alive.

Second craft of the day, some weaving on a piece of slate from the garden. The wool is one I picked up from the charity shop which was a nice find.

In an effort to keep my hands busy so I can't doom scroll I did this simple embroidery. It'll probably end up as a cushion.
