RECREATE the sweet sounds of the 1975 at home by simply getting a middle aged child of a daytime tv presenter to play the blandest supermarket music they can manage. I've got Barney Walsh round, he's setting his Casio Keyboard to Samba.

Just saw violent row btwn car passenger & woman who had exercised her right of way to cross a jct they wanted to turn into (as per chg to HC in 2022). Screaming at her that she’d endangered her kids. Who were now watching a woman scream right in their mother’s face & jab her in chest with a finger.🙄

Something wonderful for the weekend! About 40,000 years ago, during the #IceAge, this tiny figurine was sculpted from mammoth ivory. Imagine the artist sitting by the warmth and flickering light of a camp fire, carving what is the world’s oldest known sculpture of a horse! 📷 by me #Archaeology

Late appointment at surgery for vit b12 and couldn’t face the idea of anything other than a picky tea so did a trolley dash on way home. May have over catered to some extent.

To all the dads on Father’s Day. I hope, today, that every light in an empty room is turned off and all thermostats are left where you set them.

Weavers and knitters. This is very cool and shows how various types of both textiles work in their use and construction, as well as their machine version counterparts. youtu.be/ncoMYGFXmEs #knitsky #weaving #weavesky? #craft 🧶

Ok, do I know anyone in #fountainpen land who makes and / or uses quill pens (UK-only, realistically) because I have quite a lot of goose wing primaries some over a foot in length that fall perfectly harmlessly out of my birds every moult and I can’t stop myself picking them up…

Just the thing for when you want to add an indefinable air of "mediaeval peasant, dead of plague" to all the wedding photos.
