Good luck with the move and the future, Sam. I’m still so cross that this move is necessary for you, but hope your next house brings interesting adventures and joy.

Image of glade with a lake surrounded by trees with the sun peeping through. The words read: turn off the news. go outside. breathe. you were never meant to carry the burden of the entire world.

And for a few days she didn't read any news, she walked in the sunshine, she did some gardening. She watched the squirrels and listened to the birds. And the world seemed a kinder, happier place.

Love cowslips! None round here, have to go to my brother’s in the Sussex Downs to see them.

Good morning CiF, I’m so happy Smudge reappeared. Good morning all, happy St George’s Day (poor George has become tarnished lately) to all who celebrate. Nothing on the agenda today, sunny day promised so I want to wash the bed linen and get it out on the line. And that will be enough for today!

Beautiful pics, love them all, lucky you with the green lanes.

Something Is Brewing in the Pacific That Nobody in Washington Wants to Talk About A super El Niño is forming in the same week federal climate policy is being dismantled. The atmosphere doesn't care about the politics.

This is an excellent over view of the dangerous warming period we’ll likely be entering in the next 12 months.

Share it widely.

Corp news will not acknowledge this increased danger until it’s too late in order to keep markets stable. That is their sole job.

So pleased he’s back! What a relief for you.

I ❤️ that reference!

*and red wine*.

Thank you!

It’s a truly beautiful spring this year, isn’t it?

Good morning A-W and ORCs! Weather forecast for the next few days is bright and sunny but it’s been chilly overnight. This morning’s joy is a hospital eye clinic - glaucoma screening, not one of my favourite appointments so I’ll be glad when that’s out of the way. Happy Hump Day one and all!

Oh, good luck! I’ve just finished reading it.

Anxiety is the worst. Especially when you wake up with that feeling of unexplained dread. I hope your day has gone well and it’s abated a little.

Good stomach health? With san coming from sanitas (Latin, health)?

Fantastic news about the pension, but I’m sorry you had such a struggle to get it. That’s really not right.

It is. 🫂

This all sounds lovely, hope you’re feeling better and able to do more of it soon.

Interesting to know, thank you.

Me too. I’m always ridiculously early for everything! And then have to wait… but I’d rather that than be anxious.

Bisou is looking most disapproving!

I sympathise. I used to work in events and found exhibitions the worst! Take care of the ankle.

Good luck! Some sort of exhibition, if you’re on your feet so much?

Morning Clare! Ben beat you to it this morning, but his post doesn’t show up in search!

Morning Ben, morning ORCs. Another grey day here. Poor night‘s sleep with some very weird dreams! Out to a couple of appointments this afternoon so I’m going to have a lazy morning, but I feel in need of tea!
