Morning Mushen and Beans, resigned mood here too - back to work after just over a week off. To add salt to the wounds my current work pension provider emailed on Friday to remind me I have 6yrs 11mths until retirement!

Good morning Mushen and Beans, looks like a beautiful day’s weather ahead! Two green bins currently devoid of content need filling - so will need to get started on this. Plenty to do in our garden 🪏

Morning Mushen and Beans, not sure what the weather is like here in London today - just woken up after a broken night, but the joy of having a hotel room to myself meant I could read.

Morning Mushen, haven’t looked outside yet! At least the wind appears to have died down this morning. Hope your work day goes well.

After navigating the streets of London, @accessit.bsky.social librarians have been learning about enabling their borrowers to find their way around their libraries.

A session on library maps at our first roadshow of the week provided plenty to think about and act upon. #CPD #maps

Morning Mushen and Beans - Friyay! Hoping the rain holds off, finishing work at 2pm today and planned to do some gardening. If it’s raining I might be forced to visit the garden centre 😉

Morning Mushen and Beans, a glorious sky this morning in this part of Kent. Makes up for having woken up at 4am! The magnolia trees are full of promise.

Morning Mushen, BBC app says rain here until 6! Apple weather says until midday - I know which I would prefer. Hope the weather dries the apps and you get a run in.

Have a peaceful Saturday.

Morning Mushen, if the weather is a good as yesterday maybe don’t resist the garden, just the clearing. Hope you’re doing as ok as you can.

Half-term this week so the ideal time to visit your local independent children's bookshop. Personalised recommendations and great service. There are over 200 on my map so do take a look, and let me know of any I've missed.
