I read; knit, spin, dye & make things with fibre and textiles and mixed media; write poetry, memoir, short stories and micro fic and have ideas for longer pieces; do other art stuff; strum a ukulele from time to time.
This week our #DumpTrump boycott ramps up. We’re getting more data into our lists now & they go live shortly.
If you need to know which companies to boycott to send a message to FIFA, the Olympics & other orgs in bed with Trump, we’re listing them all.
And RT so more can join in.

I like cats. A lot. I like some dogs. One dog in particular I liked a lot. But I don't want my feed to be a rolling vista of other ppl's cute pets. 5/7 seven posts the other day were cats.

There’s nothing better than a strong cup of tea at an old-fashioned caff after an early (04:30) start, nearly three hours on the ferry, and an hour and a half on the bus.
