Really proud of @lornabray.bsky.social - the trailer and teaser for her new podcast Adventure Unfiltered are now live. It’s going to be a great project that captures the raw, real and reflective side of adventure.

I love living in the Cairngorms National Park (@cairngormsnews.bsky.social) for lots of reasons. But, nothing gives me more joy than the few times a year you get to ski along the beach at Loch Morlich 🙂 📷: @lornabray.bsky.social

Also the first big LEGO set that I have built that makes almost 100% use of paper rather than plastic bags

Finished building 'Endurance' in LEGO. Fantastic build, detail is great and will make a super display piece. For those who don't know Endurance was the three-masted boat that Sir Ernest Shackleton and a crew sailed for the Antarctic on the 1914–1917 Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition.
