A close friend had decided to go toe to toe with a Sumo Wrestler. One of them is a lot wiser - he won't make that mistake again.

P getting her point across with a very hmmm... distraught? Sumo Wrestler?

If you’re a public school teacher who voted for Trump, you don’t get to complain about having more kids with disabilities in your room and less staff to help you service their needs.

I feel bad for the kids in your classroom, but not for you.

Err sorry, can't see Steve. A stone yes, Steve... nope. Oh dear I think we might have another (please not again) stone mix up situation in progress. Strap in people this is going to be a long day.

In other words, one way or another other the US economy is paying for the President's Vibes. The question should be is what is being done with all this new revenue? Oh offsetting the President's Vibes. So the US is no better off and likely worse off as markets shift to other "stable" parts.

Just to be clear now... non US politicians running for office in their own country should be hoping for his endorsement? The King wants to be the Emperor.

It's like Groundhog Day but with Pears.

Steven Bradley @sostevieb.bsky.social · 4d

It might well be the time, but definitely not the place.

An interesting choice of accompaniment but perhaps one that might well be regretted if not admitted in the depths of sleep later on.

Orchard Pie day... or what is left of it. Apples, Quince and Pear in a pie. Yum.

Anyone need some pears? Taps microphone (again)..: anyone? Please! Ok people, in a bucket outside No.2 but can you please leave the bucket this time. Tks.

Today is International Mulled Pears (IMP) day and we are all in. Heads up... tomorrow is also IMP day, as is the day after and oh that day after that. Will it ever end?

Pears halved in a sugar syrup and cider liquid in, hopefully, preserving jars.

Not only did you "lie in it", having decided your private healthcare arrangement was actually rubbish. The NHS sorted you out... when your wallet and tolerance for travel wouldn't. And still you vaguely manage a mention a nod of thanks for the staff but not the system. Who wants to be a millionaire?

Jeremy Clarkson's article offers... nothing useful... again.

It is! When the snow is on the hill and the tree is standing above it is just very special. A flag in the sand of life. It sits in the middle of fields so no right of way but would def. be up for giving it a hug.

People!!!... It is international Pear Harvesting day and we are 1000% all in! Yey! Even better... tomorrow is International "What On Earth Do You Do With All These Damn Pears You Brought Home Day". Oh... Hmmm...

A (big) bucket of harvested pears - no idea what I am going to do with them. Hey ho.

Beautiful and so unique and... which it is why it is part of Delphi's Queendom. I can tell she is muttering to herself that there is patch of Brambles that are slightly spoiling her view. Oh dear, that one slipped by in my Inbox. Hey ho. A good promenade was had.

Delphi (black obstreperous Miniature Schnauzer) looking out from Wittenham clumps to her favourite tree and noting... work to be done.

It sits on top of small hill in a relatively flat landscape around so it does stand out and can be seen many miles away. We will be off an early morning promenade tomorrow, walking close by and enjoying the calm it brings.
