Hi Bluesky friends. You may remember my friend, Gordon, who is living with #Dementia, appearing in #smallbeautieshour a few weeks ago, singing in York. He & his lovely wife are staying with us for a while, and what a joy it is to have them here. #BecauseOfClem #ThreadOfGold🧡

Evening all. Lovely trip to the Bowes Museum at the weekend resulting in lots of #SmallBeauties (especially the cake!) #SmallBeautiesHour #BecauseofClem #ThreadofGold
Topiary and partare backed by a row of autumnal trees, a collection of small teapots and plates, a sign reading 'spark your imagination', a cup of tea and a half eaten slice of lemon cake, a Gold peacock ornament.

Being at the Bowes Museum meant seeing the magnificent Silver Swan......the ultimate #SmallBeauty and a pretty good #RubbishBirdPics field trip (which didn't involve any real birds)! #SmallBeautiesHour #BecauseofClem #ThreadofGold
The famous silver Swan automaton in a glass case at the Bowes Museum is surrounded by many worksop art on the walls and seating in anticipation of its daily performance.

My friends Joana & Gordon visited recently. Gordon lives with #dementia, and has become very quiet, but he sprung to life when he heard these musicians playing in the street, in York.
Absolutely beautiful 🤩 #smallbeautieshour #BecauseOfClem

Hello Bluesky friends. Even though the nights are drawing in and the mercury is falling, it’s lovely to see that there is still colour and life in the garden. #ThreadOfGold #BecauseOfClem #SmallBeautiesHour

Hello #SmallBeautiesHour friends. It’s great to be back on @bsky.app after a couple of weeks away. This week, I want to post some beauties both great and small, from Sunday’s Nidderdale Show. To start, some of the big beasts… #BecauseOfClem #ThreadOfGold

A few bits of #TinyJoy from the last few days, at the tail end of #smallbeautieshour - know I've missed a bunch, but still plugging away, and appreciating everyone who contributes to the #threadofgold #becauseofclem

#SmallBeautiesHour #smallbeauties #threadofgold #BecauseofClem Wildflowers and a huge, lovely crop of apples in our local park. And some iridescent tinsel sparkling in the sunshine, because why should tinsel only be for Christmas? We have it out all year round and the sunlight makes magic with it.
Branch of an apple tree absolutely laden with rosy apples A sea of deep red poppies A large patch of wildflowers full of white ox-eye daisies, red poppies, deep blue cornflowers,stripy cosmos, and other little pink and white flowers An iridescent piece of tinsel sparkling and throwing out rainbows in the sunshine on a windowsill.

I have successfully grown okra outdoors in the north east of England. Alas only two so far, but progress has been made on the crop of zero last year! 😀💚 #SmallBeautiesHour #BecauseofClem #threadofgold
Very small okra plant with some sparse leaves, one flower and two rather large okra.
