Hi there!! Hope you’re well, Rebecca. Posted some photos of Venice Carnival on here yesterday. Had a great time in Italy as always ☺️🇮🇹
My beautiful anemone “Levante Rosa” is flowering. Such a gift to the February garden 🌸🌱
Isn’t it gorgeous? I bought it from the side stalls before you get to St Mark’s Square for only 10 euros. 🎭
Hello! Had a break from social media and during this was lucky enough to cross the Venice Carnival off my bucket list. Venice has long been one of my favourite destinations but this was a first and what an amazing experience. How is everyone and what have I missed?! 👋🎭🇮🇹 #venice #bucketlist
I just tried going back. In that same day, I got a disgusting quote tweet and an even more disgusting DM (by a mutual follow that may have been hacked) didn’t take long to do a big NOPE and lock it down again.
I know that the next storm is rolling in, but this was an absolute stunner to start the day! #skysky
Storm Isha sent my neighbour a gift! Thankfully it just hugged the greenhouse as opposed to smashing it, but was quite a shock to see when I went out early to feed the birds! Back with the rightful owners now and hopefully well tied down. Hope everyone affected is ok! 🌱
I haven’t been here for a while(was a lovely and busy family Christmas) but I had to pop in and wish you a very happy new year. A garden photo for each month of the year is my offering to you with best wishes for a happy and healthy 2024. Hoping to get bluesky time again soon! 🌱(alt for description)
I was uphill in Lincoln last night to visit Lincoln Illuminated at the castle. It really was magical and left me feeling thoroughly Christmassy! Here’s a few photos 💜🥰 #lincoln

Yes you should! The Castle puts on illuminations (I’ll post photos) and it’s really special 🥰💜
This morning’s sky - with not a bit of filter needed. And amazing the day so far has been cold, crisp and sunny, so the shepherd wasn’t warning! Enjoy your weekend #skysky
Absolutely - had the return of the greenfinch last year after going a long time without seeing any. All welcome!
Absolutely. I thought I saw one a few weeks ago but wasn’t sure. Now I am! They are beautiful!
I was fairly close to them but quite a few are blurred because I was excited 😂😂
My favourite sort of Christmas music! My favourite Christmas album is Frank Sinatra - I still have Dad’s vinyl and love to play it every year. It has a jump that it’s had since I was a kid and if I hear the song on Spotify I wait for the jump 😆 such special memories
New visitor to the garden. I was out in the garden with my camera, when about six of these beautiful long-tailed tits flew in and spent a while feasting. Had to hold in a squee and remain calm to get decent pics! The sweetest little birds and absolutely welcome to return whenever they like 🪶
Hello! Yes, all ok. A little health scare but 🤞 all is well. Hope you’re well and getting into the Christmas spirit? 👋😘
Hi Bluesky friends, how the devil are you? Been a mad week or so for me so no time for the people in my phone. Here’s a photo of my rascally Cyril the Squirrel who visits the garden every day, has his fill of 🥜 and then takes off again without even a thankya! A cute terror if you will. ☺️
Woke up to snow this morning, wasn’t expecting it. The birds in the trees were rather bemused by the feeding table too! Beautiful for photos, but all now cleared and they are eating happily 🪶
Laying in bed reading about rumours of the white stuff so checked out my doorbell. The child half of me wanting to get up and go play, the other half worrying about the garden and the stuff I haven’t taken in to overwinter yet! Think I’ll lie in the warm a bit longer and think about it!
It’s a feels like -7 here - going out to sort the birds is quite enough for me today!! You enjoy yours too 🥰❤️❄️❄️
Charlie’s coming tonight for a sleepover - family is coming to stay at his and they have a puppy that stresses Charlie out at nighttime. He’s an old fella that needs his sleep so he’s going to tuck up with me! Will be nice as it always makes me stop and relax 🥰 Have a lovely weekend x
Please keep unfreezing the birds water in this cold snap - they still need their baths!! 🪶
Hello there! All ok with you? I’ve just come out of month end feeling like I’ve done 10 rounds with Tyson! 🤪
Well the cosmos made it to December, but with the hard frost today I think only just! Thank you my sweet flowers, till next year! 🌱
It was great for a good few years (we would even have days like post your first school photo,imagine!) but then it got so big and of course a few would try and spoil the community. I outgrew wanting to chat about the team all the time but check in on the originals. It’s a great thing when done right
My first account (that I still have open but dormant) was started April 2009! It was so quiet back then - I started to follow my favourite football team and some fans and gradually joined that community. We would do follow Fridays and all watch games live together. It was fantastic.
