A miniature posy of real spring flowers in a thimble
Thankyou *so* much for your support of my ko-fi in the last few days, it’s helped more than you know. Here’s a seasonal posy in a thimble (all real flowers from the garden), including forget me not, sorrel, geum & lily of the valley. Spot the cow parsley floret 🌿

This book is a must-read for all lovers of #Polar #Antarctic history and exploration. A good companion book tells the story of Shackleton's men on the other side of the continent, laying caches for a trip he would never make. "Shackleton's Forgotten Men" by Lennard Bickel. Buy/order from an indie!
Feeling pretty chuffed myself! 😎

We are looking at a painting of St Liphardus - a 6th-century lawyer, hermit and abbot in Meung-sur-Loire near Orléans, France. He is wearing bishops clothing including a surplus and mitre and is holding a crook. On a lead is a small knee high green and blue dragon.
We’re very sorry sir but you cannot bring your emotional support dragon in here.

Devastated to read that one of Georgia’s greatest #bookstores, Avid Books in Athens, is closing. I’ve been there many times and never left empty-handed! I hope another bookstore will take its place, but it won’t be the same. 😢
