This is Frank. He has found that the secret to happiness is a couple flowers, a lot of sunshine, and the occasional midday nap. 13/10

A close shave again this morning. I'm tending to either get it in three or six at the moment 😬 #Wordle 1,459 6/6 🟨⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟩⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Knock knock. Who’s there? Hike. Hike who? solitary cow. standing atop a mountain. longs for home – Dundee.

Merlin is the best app, I can spend a happy hour or two tracking birdsong 🐦🎢

The secret to happiness is perspective, like for instance if you have enough olives in a martini then it’s essentially just a salad with very strong dressing so

The clay soil we have in Surrey can be a bit of a challenge for some plants but these geraniums are loving it, their flowers are stunning. #gardening

There's no placating the Brexiters, no reasoning with them, no basic comprehension or adulthood. You can't debate papers behaving like the Sun or the Mail this morning. There's nothing to debate with. They view all trading relations with Europe as humiliation.

We are far from an Island of Strangers, my lovely and very strong community of neighbours come from all over this wonderful world. Off the top of my head in our road alone Greece, Iran, Croatia, Moldova, South Africa, Poland, Hong Kong, Pakistan and the Ivory Coast and I am blessed for it.

Labour's immigration announcement today is a reflection of the paucity of honest debate by BOTH political parties over the last decade on this issue. Labour has never made a counter-argument, or been honest about economic cost of immigration curbs, so it's stuck making Tory/Reform arguments 1/n

Incredibly depressing day. I've spent my entire life being told by British governments how dreadful immigration is. New Labour did it. The Coalition. The Brexiters. Now Starmer. All of them accusing the ones who came before them of failing to clamp down. The same old vacant mean-spirited bollocks.

Glen makes a good point here: if competition for home students becomes even more competitive it will put a further squeeze on some institutions I'd be watching out for the smaller, non-Russell Group research universities - the old 1994 Group - and smaller modern universities

I've had a hectic day but I keep walking past Digby who is very content in his sleepy little world which makes me smile. #cats
