In fairness to ‘God’ I do have a tendency to fall asleep within seconds of plugging myself into an audiobook no matter what time of day it is no matter what it is about…then I have to find my place and start again 😂

I tried it when audiobooks first became a thing, I still haven’t got passed the Ark but I do get 8 hours each night! 😂

This morning an eerie fog rolled through our anchorage on the Burnett River, Bundaberg.
Left behind a refreshing cool change.

There is a distinct possibility that some people are too stupid to participate in a democracy

On this day in 1981, I was taking photos of Depeche Mode at the Locarno in Birmingham. Here are some from the soundcheck, backstage and the show (THREAD)

“People are rejecting the old party politics…but they know they don't need to go to the politics of hate and division. The politics of hope is where it's at.”

Zack and Carla discuss why Bristol Cllr Al-Maghrabi has joined the Greens and why so many others are doing the same.

Sorry just back after a great day with dog and camera. Going to catch up with #BirdOfTheDay etc now. Have you ever wondered what face a Robin pulls when you say you’ve no nuts left? 👇😁 Taken today. #birds #HolidayRobin #photography #EastCoastKin

A close-up photograph of a European robin standing on a mossy, seed-covered surface. The bird faces the camera with a curious expression, showing its vivid orange-red breast and face, soft grey and brown plumage, and slender legs. The background is softly blurred in shades of green, highlighting the robin’s bright colouring and alert posture.

He was just a nipper though at the time and he learned his lesson…so I wouldn’t hold it against him 😊

I listen to the sounds of evening;
A pale moon in her becoming, casts gentle light through trees that swing and sway to the music of fresh breeze.
Night birds swoop and dive,
catching insects in mid-flight.
The land exhales
and nature sighs,
as all is laid to rest.

Just had a drunken conversation with my dog and let it slip that he was adopted.
