Here to say 👋 and to find respite from tiresomeness 😊

Saved by His grace. Odd-wheels cycling, ⛷, Emergency Med, education and teaching.
Today on Easter Sunday, I wonder why the stone was rolled away from Jesus’ tomb. If he was raised from the dead, surely he could walk through a bit of rock. And then it dawned on me that the stone was rolled away not so that He could get out, but so that we can see in. 😊
He is risen. Happy Easter!

Six months on, I’m indoors whilst the wind and the rain pound against our house, remembering that this short video I took in Maroubra NSW was in the middle of winter.

I have only engaged a little with Bluesky but I’ve suddenly started getting lots of new followers. Anyone know what’s going on?

Lot o ddilynwyr/wragedd newydd dros y pythefnos diwetha - oes rhywun un gwybod pam?

Just tried to revive a bee, offering warm sugar water. I was rewarded by being stung, which I don’t mind but that leaves the poor 🐝 worse off 😢

First new song by Billy Joel in many years released this week - have a listen; I like it.

Did I just take my amplifiers to the shop for a service?
Yes. Yes, I did. 🤦

Had a nice weekend in Edinburgh. The B&B we stay in has expanded its numbers quite a bit 😊

For 17 years, UK Biobank promised that "insurance companies...will not be given any individual’s information, samples or test results”.

Now an investigation reveals they have repeatedly shared data with insurance companies.

A shocking breech of trust.

Made the mistake of responding to an antivaxxer on the other place.
Result: a predictably unpleasant half hour.
I must find a better iPad app for Bluesky - the native one is horrible.
Any suggestions welcome.

BBC radio 4 saying “doctors are at last in talks with the government” implies it is the doctors who have been holding out. Not true - Barclay and Sunak have been refusing to meet, refusing to negotiate. #bias

Philadelphia is a rather nice city. This view is from a garden on top of a multi-storey car park.

Which is it? I don’t think it can’t be both.

First day of #ACEP23 in Philadelphia
Lots of learning 👍
Nice photo 🤣

Well I thought it was Friday evening. Quite disappointing to find that tomorrow is in fact Friday 😤
On the positive side it does mean the roofer will be back in the morning to fix the big hole he left today!
Also it was a beautiful moonset this morning.

I’ve been thinking about Wales, the land of song (Cymru, Gwlad y gân 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿) today.

The English describe Welsh singing as “4-part harmony”.

In Wales, we just call it “singing”.

Just had a peasant half hour chatting with new Bluesky friends. Nothing special - just moose, 50 yr old bottles of whisky, an uninspiring hotel in South Wales, that kind of thing.
How nice.
