@MollyBoot1 Adding pronouns to my profile now. Old-fashioned ones but that's not the point.

Finished the presents for my year 2 pupils - I'll give them our when I finish my placement - I hope they like them 😍

@Vroniholzmann You'd be a total arse if you didn't feel that way sometimes. Well I would.

@Vroniholzmann There's a Deep Purple lyric I love:
"Sky wouldn't be so high, I know,
If the times gone by hadn't been so low."

The weather today was unreal. Biblical. I had to spend hours moving things to find indoor space for every lamb that’s already been born. Fair to say though that they’re pretty happy about it.

Listening to music from B's new album being played on internet radio. Feels really different from just hearing it at home. Exciting!

@gladlib My current fascination is the book of Genesis.

@OurCofELike It looks great, I think it's a brilliant idea.

Just heard a blackcap singing on Holmwood Common. I recorded it, but the first but I heard was far louder and nicer..... So beautiful!

Alongside cars, steam trains are also a massive passion of mine… so standing on platforms at 10pm, waiting for Sir Nigel Gresley (60007/4498), to show up is completely normal.

Not the world’s best video. Steam train smell not included. But by Jove, the world’s best feeling.

@liziwake (I'm asking because I believe that is the usual advice for that)

@liziwake Sure it's not a fractured pelvis?

Today I whisk you back to a misty Edwardian morning and this wonderful autochrome by Julien Gérardin. It was taken around 1910 and (to my mind) seems to show a lady playing hide & seek behind a tree. What story does it say to you? It is original colour (not colourised).

[Quilliver @Quilliver]

@StuartHumphryes Amazing how thorough the change is from everyone-in-hats to no-hats-anywhere...

[Quilliver @Quilliver]

Completed in 1959 - I would have guessed 60s. Website says it's in the Festival style. A Forward in Faith church. Must be interesting to see high ritual in the brutalist interior.

[Quilliver @Quilliver]

Out and about. Happened to drive past this - St Mary's South Ruislip. Closed for renovation. Amazing church.

@Daffodil01chase No! Hope it's sorted soon........
