The movie ‘Don’t Look Up’. It’s basically the whole reason I keep Netflix, so I can watch it whenever I want. No lies detected in it whatsoever. 🤣

The Diplomat
The Queens Gambit
Stranger Things (it will hook you and you will develop one or two favorite characters!)

Say what you will about this, but it’s already the most successful Bush campaign in 20+ years.

Wanna come over? I’m currently trying to de-dust/cobweb my whole ass house! I’ll provide beer or wine. 🤪

And…I have bread!

I can't really make gloomy skies look less gloomy but here is today's view from Glastonbury. Photo taken this morning about half an hour before sunrise (not that we saw the sun rise today 😂)

Autumnal collection, including little owl feather, seedheads & various lovely things that fell off trees.
Zoom in to the details if you’re feeling stressed-the patterns in nature have been shown to help our brains relax🪶:

I'd nearly given up feeding the hogs every night.
Then I opened the door to take the dog out to spend a penny and there were two of these beautiful creatures on my doorstep, loving their feed of kitten biscuits.
Just the best thing to see.

Two barn owls. One looking left. One looking right.
Sat above a sleeping hedgehog with Herb Robert and Stitchwort growing around it.

My factory second came today! Got a 12 inch fry pan in Basil. Had my eye on it for ages and lucked into getting a great deal on it. It was already marked down 20%, then they offered an additional 25%.

1. “My favourite author has a new book coming out next month.”
2. “I just pre-ordered it.” “Great. What’s it about?”
3. “Oh. . . I don’t know.” “You didn’t check before placing an order?”
4. “If it’s my favourite author, I don’t really need to.”
