A pretty etymology to kick off the day: the 'daisy' takes its name from the Old English 'dæges ēage', 'day's eye', because the flower opens its petals at dawn and slowly closes its 'eye' again at dusk.
Word of the Day (because it’s about time) is ‘respair’, from the 16th century. It means fresh hope, and a recovery from despair. One of too many lost positives we could do with bringing back.
Wishing everyone a gruntled, gormful, ruthful and feckful New Year, full of respair.
Remembering these unforgettable moments, the future Queen visited our #London's residence five years ago.
God bless the King and the Queen!

Throwback to last Sunday and this incredible concert which was joy to witness and to photograph. So many talented people contributing to an important thing.
Zastávkou v budově Porchester Gate jsem si připomněl památku Josefa Gabčíka a Jana Kubiše. Sídlila zde exilová vojenská zpravodajská služba, byla zde naplánována operace Anthropoid a vznikla tady i slavná fotografie před poslední a nejdůležitější misí československých parašutistů
Thanks so much to @jollydt for these wonderful pictures of our wind quintet performing at @HParker_Trust's #LoveInMind concert last weekend!
What an excellent effort all round and a lovely memory to kick off the bank holiday with! #youthmusic#youngmusician#mentalhealthmatters
What an amazing night - so much #LoveInMind in the room you could hold it. Thank you to all the talent - on-stage and off - who made the magic happen 🧡💜🤎🏳️🌈
