Looking good Nick!

To be clear I have carefully read the whole article. I share your view that this should happen. The issue is that, having also had several discussions with my Labour MP, I see no evidence at that this government will be progressive on any issue. US, EU, GAZA, LGBTQ+ or this.

...not that I'm suggesting they have or ever would build windfarms.

I hesitate to use an American illustration but the US Army Corps of Engineers has historically led on Federal engineering projects just like that.

World's best uncle! 🤣

Chip Chik Inn?

On Monday our instagram account was hacked and then deleted. We received a ransom note to recover it; obviously we couldn't and wouldn't pay, and therefore lost thousands of followers. Meta support was useless. But we're BACK with a new account: @littletollerbooks. Can you follow us there and share?

That's a shame. Love your stuff. I'm only on here.

A manuscript underwater - reads Land Beneath the Waves, covered with pebbles.

I'd be super grateful if UK folk could recommend their favourite local independent bookshops, so I can plan my travels with LAND BENEATH THE WAVES from June onwards. So looking forward to my first book tour adventure. Pls repost 🙏💚🌱📚

Here's my manuscript. Cover's almost ready! #LandBeneaththeWaves

Main Street Trading in St Boswells near Melrose. Not on here but a great shop!

Sometimes you need to cut yourself some slack. Hard day out with work. On my way back across the city was lured into a cracking wee Espresso bar on the corner of Ingram St and Candleriggs. Day always looks better with coffee, brownie and some @roseannewatt.bsky.social

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋

Ouch!🤣

Oh I don’t know prophet in your own country etc 🤣Although it would be nice to think they stuck with the theme!

Nope. You got a book that was a little like a passport. Then when you passed certain “targets” you got quite a fancy certificate. Way before Air Miles were a bad thing!

Nahhhh!🤪

Spirit stove, snow in kettle and Jack Russell Terrier

Even a spirit stove melting snow for lunch in the Pentlands yesterday was very satisfying.

A lovely walk and lunch today in the snow above Castlelaw Ranges in the Pentlands with Siora.

Good sweater!

I’d forgotten about them. I had mileage certificates too!

Sense we might be here more often. Quit “the other place” long ago now Instagram has joined the race to the bottom!

So needed a break from work. A small dog, some richly named Galloway wild country and coffee from a twig stove will tide me over for a bit.

I heard twa Corbies makkin' main...

My dog takes exception to phone and tablet. She is slightly more tolerant of a book but only marginally. All eventually get the nudge.

Gosh yes. Although Le Marseillaise and Nkosi Sikelel’ iAfrika have to be the two best national anthems.
