Already following you and reposted your post...not sure what posts are called over here

venetiajane.bsky.social•104 days ago

Thank you! I’m not sure what they’re called either, Bren 🤔

nycmittelalter.bsky.social•72 days ago

Moving here from “the other place” too.

venetiajane.bsky.social•71 days ago

Hello 😊👋. Welcome to Bluesky! 💙

8blackdiamond8.bsky.social•103 days ago

I followed you from the other place.

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

Good to see you 😊👋. I’ve “followed” you back 🌻

summermouse-10.bsky.social•104 days ago

Hi, yes followed you on Twitter (refused to call it X) over here now, lots of nice people moving over😊it seems and no adverts, so great!! Lovely you've decided to move.

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

Good to see you here! It certainly does seem sunnier over here, doesn’t it! 🌞

summermouse-10.bsky.social•103 days ago

Definitely, in truth I struggled round Twitter, I used to be on Candide, it was a great sociable network for plant, nature and animal lovers,a very sad day when they decided to end it.

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

Let’s hope Bluesky will be as good as Candide for you. I remember Candide, but I don’t think I ever joined it.

pbrown000.bsky.social•103 days ago

So glad you’re here!

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

Good to see you too 😊👋🌻

trishmelbourne.bsky.social•103 days ago

Was following you at old place but with a different pic. This one is the real me.

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

Thanks for letting me know, Trish. Quite a few people seem to have changed either their profile pic or name, or both. I get very confused 😂🤣

trishmelbourne.bsky.social•103 days ago

So do I 😆 So so pleased to see you here though!
Love all your posts 💚

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

Aww, thank you so much! x

themorganic.bsky.social•98 days ago

I didn’t know you from the ‘dark platform’ but I’m following you here now 😊🌺

Lovely to meet you, and great that we are following each other now! Have a good start to the new week 🌻

thewatchfulcook.bsky.social•103 days ago

So happy to have found you here.

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

Hello! Lovely to see you here! More and more people seem to be coming over here, don’t they 😊👋

theunhurriedreader.bsky.social•103 days ago

It’s highly subjective, of course, but my list ‘Always’ contains as many favourite accounts from the other side as I’ve been able to find so far, and I’m going to keep adding to it. Perhaps I should have made a Starter Pack, but I don’t have the headspace for that at the moment.

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

Do share your favourites with us all! It would be great to know which accounts they are!

theunhurriedreader.bsky.social•103 days ago

That's kind. I think you should be able to access the list... although I'm not sure. When I have time I'll look at it properly.

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

No hurry at all! I’m sure I can look through who you are following and find them there!

victoria500.bsky.social•97 days ago

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

Good! I am finding my Bluesky app a bit laggy. May be my phone 🤔

venetiajane.bsky.social•102 days ago

It’s my greatest hope that some of the people who left Twitter (even ages ago) will appear on here. There are a lot of folk I really miss, not people who necessarily had big accounts, but people who were so lovely to interact with!

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

It’s such a fun thing to do! I always remember Lisa sharing one on Twitter several years ago, and that prompted me to look out for them ever since. This is the best one I have ever found, and it was in my mum’s garden! x

venetiajane.bsky.social•102 days ago

They certainly are forget-me-nots, David! I always look for these little heart-shaped clusters each year 💙. I was first inspired by Lisa Sutch who did a post about them on Twitter a few years back x

vonkarlsen.bsky.social•102 days ago

It's a beautiful photograph Venetia. They're a flower one always remembers from childhood. There was another flower similar but with a deeper blue; I don't know what you would have called them, different areas have their own names for flowers; we called them bird's eye. Can you identify that name? X

venetiajane.bsky.social•102 days ago

Germander speedwell is sometimes called “birdseye”. Would it be this flower? x

vonkarlsen.bsky.social•102 days ago

Yes, of course, how come I forgot that! Thank you Venetia my friend. X 💙📚💫🎶🌅👍🙋

venetiajane.bsky.social•102 days ago

Ah, good! I’m so pleased it was the right flower! 💙x

swimthetide.bsky.social•103 days ago

I wish people would give their former name. We may have been best buds there, but with a new name, it's tough to know.

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

That’s so true! I started trying to work out who’s who yesterday, but it was taking so long I decided to send out this post! It’s good to connect with you on here, thank you! 😊💐

swimthetide.bsky.social•103 days ago

Thank you. I wish you luck in your worthy endeavor! Happy Tuesday.

I don’t blame you! It’s blowing a hooley out there!

venetiajane.bsky.social•55 days ago

Hello, Louise 😊👋. Good to see you here. I am a bit betwixt and between at the moment! So tricky some being here and some being there! I just want to try to keep in touch with so many lovely folk 😁 x

lou65broad.bsky.social•55 days ago

I’m still popping over to the other place to check for messages or anything and also checking here for people I enjoyed following over there. The people I connected with are what I don’t want to lose. X

venetiajane.bsky.social•53 days ago

Indeed! I think we must be in both places for now to do that. Have a lovely Wednesday, Louise 😊👋 x

frecklesgirl.bsky.social•93 days ago

Hi Venetia, i followed you on the other place, under same username. Great to see you here in #BlueSky. Welcome 🌾

Happy to follow you here as well as the other place.
Same handle there, too. 🙂🌼

venetiajane.bsky.social•100 days ago

Good to see you here too, and I’ve followed you back. I’m so pleased you have kept the same name. I’m really struggling to find, or recognise, some people on here 😳

fleurishfolk.bsky.social•100 days ago

Thanks Jane! Yes, I found the same thing, but happily more friends are starting to (re)appear. Have to say, Bluesky reminds me of the old, old Twitter, which is kind of nice. 🙂

venetiajane.bsky.social•100 days ago

It certainly is nice! Just what we all need! 😊

Had to come to phone for the 💙 as iPad won’t do emoticons!!! We will make this better than the old place has been for many years! Xx

I do hope so, Sue! xx

Hello Venetia 😊 Lovely to see you here. I just followed you. We are connected on the other place, although there my address is @FleursHerbes.
Here on bluesky it is @flowergardens.bsky.social

Hello Marie 😊👋 so good to see you here! Thank you so much for getting in touch. Have a lovely Wednesday 💐x

lensandpedals.bsky.social•87 days ago

Are these from your garden?

venetiajane.bsky.social•87 days ago

I found this little cluster in my mum’s garden. A friend on Twitter posted a photograph of a heart-shaped cluster of forget-me-nots she found a few years ago, and every year since I have looked out for them myself; always trying to find a more perfect one than the last!

kevhatey4.bsky.social•97 days ago

I'm following you on here
Used to follow on twitter, but then you stopped appearing in my feed, replaced by adverts for temu. Glad to have you back.

venetiajane.bsky.social•97 days ago

Hello there 😊👋. Good to see you here. It’s so strange you stopped seeing my posts (and others I have reconnected with on here have said just the same). I have posted pretty much every day in the ‘other place’ 😳. Hopefully I won’t be hidden away on here 😂. Have a good Monday 🌻

kevhatey4.bsky.social•97 days ago

Here's hoping. I look forward to seeing more of your posts again. Have a great rest of week.

venetiajane.bsky.social•96 days ago

Hello, Mike 😊👋. Good to see you. Nigella is one of my favourite flowers to photograph!

artygardener.bsky.social•52 days ago

You've already picked me up! So pleased

venetiajane.bsky.social•52 days ago

I certainly have, Diana! Hello 😊👋💐

brendadayne.bsky.social•104 days ago

You are one of the people I hadn’t seen at the other place in quite some time. I imported my follow list, and was delighted to see you again.

venetiajane.bsky.social•104 days ago

Hello Brenda! That’s so interesting as I have been posting every day. I think we all just disappeared amongst the “noise” on there. Thank you so much for reconnecting with me! 😊👋💐

brendadayne.bsky.social•104 days ago

I’m finding many old friends here that I haven’t seen on the other place in quite some time. That’s been one of my favourite things about the past few days. ☺️

venetiajane.bsky.social•104 days ago

I’m so pleased to hear that! Long may that continue! 😊

kamaribis.bsky.social•92 days ago

VenetiaJane!! We follow each other on the “other place” (my handle is the same)….I’m so very delighted to see you, & your beautiful posts, here!☺️

Hello 😊👋! Good to see you here too. Thanks so much for getting it touch so that we can reconnect. Have a good weekend 💐

venetiajane.bsky.social•103 days ago

Hello Elaine 😊👋. Lovely to connect with you 💐

ukulady.bsky.social•102 days ago

I would just like to know how people deal with the seed heads stuck to your clothes once the flowers are finished - think the only answer is a spot of naked weeding after dark so as not to frighten the neighbours🥴

venetiajane.bsky.social•102 days ago

😂🤣 well that’s one solution! I find the burdock seed heads so much worse because they break up into tiny pieces. Terrible in dogs’ fur 😳

ukulady.bsky.social•101 days ago

That's one seed I don't have to contend with luckily but the forget-me-nots are prolific in my garden and I love them in spite of the seeds.

venetiajane.bsky.social•101 days ago

They certainly are prolific! As you say, it’s worth putting up with their overly enthusiastic seed dispersal for the joy these wonderful flowers give us! 💙

debbieg.bsky.social•88 days ago

I'm not sure if you ever followed me on the "other place" (I had the same username) but I've enjoyed your posts there for a long time and am happy to see you on here.

venetiajane.bsky.social•87 days ago

I do indeed follow you over there, and I’m now following you here! Great to connect with you on here too. Thank you so much for getting in touch 💐
