When you see a #hedgehog out in the day time please remember he's been sick for a long time before taking this last desperate step.
He's dying.
IT'S AN EMERGENCY.
Take him indoors in the warmth and ring a rescue IMMEDIATELY.

Fresh out of the kiln this week, beachy vibes with this cute little thrown pot
And my first thrown mug, with my first pulled handle.
Bigger thrown pots all finished and fired

Every Victorian ink bottle shown in this photo is still available in one of my posy kits designed to alleviate anxiety & lift mood through gentle creative anxiety.
Forget me nots & cowslips not included (but a tiny dried flower posy made by me me IS👍🏼)🌿. Here’s my Etsy: www.etsy.com/uk/shop/silv...
I shall forever pick holes in anyone who says ‘desserts’ in future.
Etymology of the day: in the expression ‘just deserts’, ‘deserts’ is an old past participle of the French ‘deservir’, meaning ‘deserve’. To get your just deserts is to get what you deserve.

‘Desert’ in this sense is obsolete, which is why lexicographers see ‘just desserts’ popping up everywhere.

Spring has sprung in the rescue; almost all the hogs are awake with just a couple still dozing. Outside in the garage our guests are less visible as it’s colder out there, but this cute little fella came out to sniff the air after I’d cleaned up.

Ukraine has agreed to a US proposal for an immediate 30 day ceasefire. Ball is now in Russia’s court. Trump is likely about to discover how uninterested in real peace Putin is, unless it’s entirely on his terms.
I’m getting increasingly angry that no one is telling Putin to get the fuck out of Ukraine.

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II.

Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

I think this is the closest many of us have ever got to seeing the real Trump. The only consistent thread in his entire unhinged rant was the love & praise for Vladimir Putin. Zelensky has more courage & dignity in his little finger than every member of Trump's regime & fan club combined.
Trimming the bases of my wheel-thrown pots when they’re slightly dried out, to give a more pleasing shape. These are the biggest I’ve thrown so far, quite pleased with them. With more experience this shaping should be done in the throwing, but I’m not there yet.

Thank you for reminding us always. 🙏🏻💔

#meetandgreet … Scary Spice! She’s had her toenails trimmed in between bouts of hibernation. Another blind long-stay. She’ll be more comfy after her pedicure 🥰

Say “cheese” Harris! A real character, totally blind so he’s a long-stay guest. Gave him a nice clean bed which he totally ignored and instantly went to sleep up against his glass door 🙄😂

This isn't a surprising but it is devastating.

The great betrayal of Ukraine begins.

We, in Europe, are in a place of danger.

We all owe Ukraine & its people a debt of gratitude for its extraordinary courage. 😢
Wheel throwing today. Getting bigger! 🥰
