Oh no! Poor C-comme. Bless his little paws. Hope he recovers quickly. Tuna treats might help πŸ˜‰

Speech by Claude Malhuret - March 5, 2025 - Fight the dictator backed by a traitor
YouTube video by Sembilani Sepuluhi Speech by Claude Malhuret - March 5, 2025 - Fight the dictator backed by a traitor

if you haven’t watched this speech in full by French senator, Claude Malhuret, it’s very very much worth the eight minutes of your time to take it in:

Morning all. A day of manky drizzle and heavy grey skies here. A day to curl up by the fire with the cats and do some paperwork while Mr D does some decorating. Hope everyone has a good day/week.

Morning all. It's a misty old morning here in France, but the sun is shining, the birds are chirping and there's a definite feeling of spring in the air. Better days ahead,we hope.

Donald Trump returning to the White House will be deeply worrying for millions of people in the UK and around the world. With a President who promises trade wars, undermines NATO and praises Vladimir Putin, the threats to our national security and our economy are clear.

Just cannot bear to see the Inauguration and
adulation of this heinous criminal who has no respect for the Office he holds,so spending the afternoon cleaning the kitchen and reorganising my herbs,spices,vinegars and oils.

Had a lovely few days with a flying visit from our daughter. Walks in the frosty sunshine, out for lunch, coffee in the port and lots of chat about her wedding plans. Love family time with the wee girl. ❀️

Welcome! Living in Bergerac. Seventh year here.
Bluesky is very civilised,so far. You can have discussions without discord and people post about interests. It's a breath of fresh air.

Veggie tagine in the Ninja tonight. An hour in the fridge to marinade then 10 minutes on high pressure. A January favourite and half to freeze.

Hello all! Late check in today as I had to go to see the GP this morning (nothing serious). Morning cheered up considerably by the smell of freshly baked bread in the local bakery and a good cup of black coffee. Hope you're all having a great day and enjoying small pleasures.

@mrsgl40.bsky.social good to see you here! It takes a while to rediscover the people you followed on the other place but it's worth it. Far more civilised.

Anyone else had Elmo follow them on here? I've never blocked anyone more quickly.

Making a permanent move over here this week as I have closed my Twitter account. I've barely used it over the last year so it's no loss. This is so much nicer.

Morning all. Another damp day today but today is the first day of the January sales here, so the roads will be full of cars with unlikely looking objects sticking out of bunjee-strapped hatch-backs.

Morning all! Grey and manky in our bit of France today. Waiting in for a DHL delivery of new passport,sadly black rather than claret but looking forward to using it soon to see our daughter and her fiancΓ©. Hope you all have something to look forward to today.

Vibrant flowers growing in the garden yesterday. The sunshine is making them spring into life.

I LOVE spring! And the Merlin app. Out in the garden tidying up and these are the birds singing in the garden in the last 10 minutes. Nature's symphony ❀️

So sorry Johnny. It's heartbreaking when they leave us. Dogs are too good for this world, far better than most people. She lived her best life, romping through the woods with you. A life full of love and a life well lived. Go well muddy four-paws.

Just checked in to Twitter to see if it's still a rancid cesspit, only to laugh till my sides ached at the headbangers theory that Kate Middleton has had a BBL. Seriously!? Stop sniffing the prit sticks.

Soring:The winter's gloom has lifted. The sun is shining,it's 17'. The birds are singing & feasting on nuts & seeds. Liam's planting bulbs,we are drinking good coffee & there's a curious,fat bumblebee investigating every bit of my left sleeve.
This morning feels like an awakening after slumbers.

We go very often on a Saturday. We live just outside Bergerac near Prigonrieux so it's easy to get to Sainte-Foy. I love the veggies and flowers. There are stalls selling spices now too so I go to stock up.

Well! Wonka was simply wonderful! A joyful film.Stellar cast. Hugh Grant is brilliant.Made by the same team as the Paddington films & it shows.You might come out of the film wondering if you've taken a creative amount of drugs,but let go and just enjoy the magic.
