Replace satire with juvenile.

This is fake news. No place for it on BlueSky.

Reform will turn the UK into a pale imitation of Trump's America. Imagine a British equivalent of ICE on our streets. No NHS. No parliamentary powers, just a nicotine-stained fascist dictator making insane decisions.

Dusk without Daftie. Saint Malo at the end of the day.

Great sky!

Dawn without Daftie. I‘m at Saint Malo this weekend for the international book festival, Etonnants Voyageurs, and sadly had to leave the wee man at home.

The best yet @authorpetermay.bsky.social I've been to Cadaqués so enjoyed going back there with Enzo. What next? Can't wait to start Freeze frame

Dawn with Daftie.

The Gulf of Saint Tropez - a parking lot for boats of the rich and famous!

Today’s dawn with Daftie: 05.54.

Well, you and I are the same age, and it’s only natural to be more conscious of the end as it draws closer. I’ve just completed an album of new songs on that very theme. It’s called “Towards the Light”.

Another day, another dawn with Daftie.

Brilliant again @authorpetermay.bsky.social The 'who's trying to kill Enzo' plot thickens. 🤔

Lone boat.

My dad (left) and his best friend, immediately pre war. Unbeknownst to either of them, each was later sent to serve in India, and in an extraordinary coincidence met by chance in a hotel restaurant in Bombay.

Another dawn with Daftie.

Dawn with Daftie. Hope on the horizon.

How do Labour not understand this - if people want Reform-style nastiness over immigration etc, they're going to vote Reform, not for the Labour lo-fat sugar-free version. All Labour are doing (apart from tarnishing their souls), is driving away all us leftie humane decent openhearted types.

Dawn with Daftie. Same time, same place as yesterday. The difference a day makes!

Hahaha! Just a bit 😀

Gulf of Saint Tropez 😀

Cheers, Rodger. But, really, it was nature that did it 😀

Dawn with Daftie (rain on the horizon(.

We’ve taken every possible step to avoid allergies, including making all his food fresh with proven non-allergic ingredients.

Poor Daftie keeps trying to eat his foot. The only way to stop him is by covering it with a sock. The vet says there is nothing physically wrong with it. Anyone got any ideas?

Dawn with Daftie

Easter with Daftie.

Lunch with Daftie - and friends.

Not yet, Melissa 😀

Storylining.

Lowry?

Dawn with Daftie.

When my father began sinking into dementia, my mother disowned him and I placed him temporarily in a home until I could figure out what to do. These are his thoughts on the place. An English teacher and headmaster with a love of Shakespeare, he could now barely write.

Sunset.

Make it an historical crime novel, set among the ruins of Carthage, and I will most certainly read it! 😀

My late friend, Bill Hill, introduced me to patchouli oil when we were cub reporters together in Scotland. Bill went on to become “the father of electronic text”, inventing the system that made text easy to read on screen. He ended up at Microsoft in Seattle, and shared the stage with Bill Gates.

Spring dawn with Daftie.

Spaghetti Junction in the sky this morning!

Ah, yes, but nothing quite beats the essential oil 😀

I’m a patchouli man. A drop of the essential oil in the beard each morning will see you through the day. It has been my signature scent for more than 40 years. (I understand, of course, that you don’t have a beard 😀.)
