Whether you opt for a traditional watering can, empty plastic bottles, or something a little more unique, make sure your trees are getting their 50L each week to keep them healthy and thriving through the summer 💧

@Angelasamata I first heard May you Never on a warm summer evening on the steps of Sacre Coeur in 1981, strummed by a busker. Been a favourite of mine ever since #mayyounever #johnmartyn

As you watch the Aurora this evening, it’s worth reflecting that you’re getting a rare direct glimpse of the power of Nature. Those charged particles causing the atmosphere to glow came from a sunspot complex 17 times the diameter of Earth and traveled across 90 million miles at a million miles an hour. Without our magnetic field to protect us, our atmosphere would have been lost to space long ago. Those colours in the sky are Nature reminding us that we’re very lucky to be here amidst the violence. And perhaps therefore also reminding us not to shite it all up :-)

I’m starting a support group for people who didn’t see the Northern Lights last night.

“To make sculpture means a life-long commitment”. Richard Serra

Today is a sad day for the art world, and for the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao family. The passing of Richard Serra, one of the most relevant artists of our time, is undoubtedly a tremendous loss.
