Yes, it's back! The destroyer of nasal passages is in full bloom - Rapeseed. Neon yellow, smelling like a cross between sick and rot, the rapeseed blossom induces coughing, sticky eyes and wild, random sneezing. I bloody hate April.

www.theguardian.com/film/2026/ap... I know this landscape well. It is eerie, challenging and to me, utterly bewitching. In places it's dangerous, but it's always fascinating. Huge skies, trecherous silver sea and marshlands where fish, eels and snakes hide.

Brilliant. You see them so infrequently now. Lovely little things.
It is, but I'm very childish at this stage of the game and just want it to miraculously STOP in some way.
Thank you beloved Doc! Can you imagine the size of that furry ocean!
I've finally got past that 'fucking hell will this ever end?' stage now - can't work out whether this is better or worse yet. BTW having a right creepy and yet also rollicking time with SHADOW OF MADNESS. God, we love those two boys in this house!
I just need you all to know that I'm finishing an Ikmen book at the moment. I am at the banging my head against the desk, this is now physically painful stage. It's also reached the point where in my head it is absolute dog-shit. Someone for God's sake send chocolate and, ideally, ether.
If you return unwanted Reform local election leaflets to their party headquarters using their free post address, then it will cost the party £2.50 per envelope.

A photo of an orange flower, in which two bees are facing and nestling together. “Did you know that when bees grow old, they don’t always make it back to the hive. Instead, they spend their last night resting gently on a flower beneath the stars. If they see another sunrise, they’ll gather one last bit of pollen as a final gift to their colony before quietly slipping away. So when you see a little bee resting on a flower at duck… pause and thank her. She’s more precious than gold.” ~GardeningSoul

So relieved!

BREAKING: Hungary just saw a stunning political shakeup. Opposition leader Péter Magyar says Prime Minister Viktor Orbán personally called to congratulate him on his victory, marking the imminent end to Orbán’s long grip on power.
This is fabulous news. Apart from anything else it sends a message to all other right wing nut jobs.
Absolutely. That was our childhood and of course it happened! For God's sake!

Hail fellow traveller in the 'has my office just exploded?' universe! Massively impressed and uplifted.
Fake assassination attempt - how unoriginal.
Very small.
Wise words my friend. But I do feel a bit sick!
