Yep here too, went for a walk earlier this afternoon, and thought my ears were dropping off. Hands & body warm though, so manageable...

Beautiful evening sky...

Exactly ....I'm too old to get cold & damp in the garden

Sounds like a lovely walk!

I've done nothing in my garden since before Christmas...toowet & cold!

We're lucky enought to have a brick shed in our cottage garden used as a workshop, storage, it houses the freezer and tumble drier. Checked the stored jams & chutneys, to see if I needed to make any marmalade. Found 4 jars of '23, and 4 jars of the '24 vintage.... There's only me that eats it...

Sunday painting.
Line and wash of a lane in Helmsley in North Yorkshire.
It's from John Harrison's excellent Pen and Wash book, although he just draws this pic, no wash.
It's on Seawhite paper, that is not keen on lots of water or washes...

An afternoon pic, on Bomeijia paper, using just two colours...indigo & violet lake. And a lot of masking fluid/gum.
From a Christmas present, Joe Dowden Watercolour Painting 50 exercises.

He's just writing to get talked about.....and, lo, he is getting talked about. He's a twat, but also a wind up merchant.

I've no interest in what the silly cow talks about....brainless hypocrite, like her squeeze..

They are moreish....

These are the people we should be remembering Alice Dasilva Aguiar, Elsie Dot Stancombe and Bebe King.

Taken too soon, don't let them be forgotten.

Thanks...great names...

Is that your garden?...do you know Mrs GF? She's also a bugger for the bunting....

"rubs hands in anticipation"....

📡Don’t let this one fly under the radar just because it sounds a bit technical

An EU-UK MRC mean British businesses wouldn't have to pay to test their products twice before they can sell into the EU, saving money for them and consumers

The Gov being open to it is big news!

I think we're all for this thought...

Let's hope...

I think we're all keeping our fingers crossed, particularly those of us who have moved over from 'the other place', and then 'the other, other place'...although I'm still on 'the other, other place' for the time being....
It seems pretty easy to alert folk to stuff, and to block as necessary.

Are they all the same breed, or do the colours go with the breed? The pale brown & black one is pretty too. I think hens are cool things, are they fun & friendly?

Yes, probably red, but I don't remember seeing them in fancy colours like that originally, they all seemed to be white, blue, or beige...P5 were white, or blue, or maroon.

Bonjour ¡Hola! (Blimey that's complicated name typing)

Looking forward to listening to this on my walk tomorrow.
