Night night sweet dreamies 🧡
Don’t let the noise of other people’s opinions drown out your own inner voice.
There is no shame in asking for help.
Even the tiniest meow can be heard by someone who cares.
In 1775 the allée couverte of La Pierre Turquaise in St-Martin-du-Tertre (Val-d’Oise) was used as a kennel for hunting dogs, later as accommodation for forest workers and in 1842 narrowly avoided being broken up to make paving slabs. Card by Frémont pre-1904.
Deer Park: These beautiful standing stones in Aberdeenshire were recently vandalised with spray paint, police appeal for information. #StandingStoneSunday A setting of three stones, older reports describe a fourth fallen stone. More 1/
Snow Raven is a member of the shamanic Sakha people from Arctic Siberia.
Her amazing voice takes its breath from traditional Sakha culture and is truly an instrument.
The Somerset Farmhouse of 1 North Street, Williton were approached by a "food influencer" that wanted to charge them £2,000 for a review.
They put out a video of Sally eating a sausage roll instead 😆.
Lets make Sally and the Somerset Farmhouse famous for free.
Pendant 50 ans, cette dame a transformé son village en oeuvre d’art.
Anežka Kašpárková a consacré près d’un demi-siècle à décorer les murs, maisons et chapelles de son village de Louka avec de magnifiques motifs floraux bleus inspirés de l’art traditionnel morave. Sans modèle ni pochoir, elle réalisait tout à la main avec une précision remarquable.
Décédée en 2018, elle laisse derrière elle un véritable musée à ciel ouvert. Aujourd’hui, sa nièce perpétue cette tradition afin de préserver cet héritage unique qui continue d’émerveiller les visiteurs du monde entier.
I’ll be back in magical Avebury tomorrow (Saturday), doing a book signing at The Henge Shop from 11.30 on … if you’re around please pop in and say hello!
Finally the last stitch is in, and I can now reveal my latest embroidery. I hope you enjoy… I’m off to stretch and give my hands a rest! 😉🪡🌿🌺
*All completely freehand stitched, no patterns, paint, or guides just plenty of threads.

This is more evidence of Britain's failing civil service.
Like other quangos, the @EnvAgency is unaccountable and too-often incompetent. Long on excuses, short on results. There are so many cases of Britain's failing state. It is a HUGE problem. @TiceRichard
The dolmen of La Roche-aux-Loups in Missillac (Loire-Atlantique) has a 4m long capstone supported on 3 orthostats two of which slope inwards; whether it was built like this or they have slipped over time is debatable. Card by Chapeau in Nantes c.1911.
Rubio once again complains US-led negotiations between Ukraine and Russia were "unfruitful":
"We invested tremendous amount of high-level time in that conflict over last year. Neither side is prepared to make concessions necessary to reach agreement."
Once again, it is necessary to point out the obvious: when you have a nation trying to murder its neighbors to steal their land, and people just trying to survive, there is no middle ground.
Ukrainians, as the victims of this unprovoked attack, cannot just agree to die under Russian occupation, rot in FSB torture chambers, and be thrown into unmarked mass graves to never be found.
We simply want to live. There is zero room for concessions. As for Russia, they can be forced to stop killing us.
You could bring them to that breaking point much faster than we can do without you, if you finally stopped this disgusting bothsidesism, stopped endless sanctions waivers, seized their shadow fleet, and armed Ukraine to the teeth.
