#AshmoleanAdvent Day 10: Evening Snow at Kiyomizudera
This woodblock print shows a view from inside the Kiyomizudera Temple in Kyoto on a snowy evening by Kawase Hasui.
Snow falls steadily, forming drifts on the wooden balcony. Through the pillars, two figures can be seen looking out.

The 1995 radio adaptation of Box of Delighte is now on YouTube. I had this, recorded off Radio 4, on cassette for years, and would listen in my unheated rooftop flat, baking bread in my tiny two ring stove, watching the popping lights of the Llanwern steelworks on the horizon.

With all the horrible news coming out of the UK I would just like to reiterate that the President of Ireland celebrated Trans Day of Remembrance, and the Irish minister for health, the not particularly leftwing Jennifer Carroll McNeill, has spoken against the UK's cruel treatment of trans people.

The Sixth Window. The Feast of Saint Nicholas. Well-wrapped up in an enormous rose-coloured muffler, carrying a sturdy wicker basket in paw, Babcia had taken the early bus into Dorchester to do some Christmas shopping on her own.

My Mani charity print is still available. An unfortunate rule with my print sales (I’m very lucky to sell any at all) is that every print I make has a 2 day lifespan for sales. That’s how social media works but I’d love to raise a bit more money for Stockport NHS. ❤️

I’m doing a second auction for Patch, a local charity that provides food, cloths and toys for people in poverty. At Christmas time they gift toys to kids who’ve had a referral. What could be more in the spirit of Christmas? This little wren is up for auction to raise money for toys. Please dig deep

Just finished @nicolawriting.bsky.social’s #GhostsOfTheFarm. Bloody hell, she’s only done it again—another staggeringly beautiful book. I couldn’t stop thinking: “God, I wish I’d written that line!” No one does elegiac like she does; tender, subtle, exquisite. #naturewriting
