What a difference a day makes. Before and after in the two plots. #allotmentlife #threesisters #aztecplanting

When there isn’t enough cargo bike parking, we make like a car. I hope with the congestion charge and the growth of cargo bikes we get more alternative bike parking in Oxford city centre. (Disclaimer there was only room for a bike not another car)

Just been told I look like a yoga instructor. May have brought a little too much East Oxford into the office. Gonna start all my meetings with sun salutations. #birkenstocksandhemp

BUT MY CART.

Build it. worked for London, New York, Durham and more. Oh and strip out some exemptions. We’ve run out of road space. It’s time for bold action.

Plants are still not in the ground. Cue 6am digging. Met an excellent whippet though. #allotmentlife

Mowing the front of the plot so people can’t see the carnage from the path 😂. #allotmentlife

This patch is my nemesis. Early morning digging before it gets too hot #threesisters #allotmentlife

There is very serious news in here but also THERE IS A NEW DONUT SQUAD BOOK (must keep this secret from Small Boy). IYKYK.

I think this is an excellent and constructive build to the (de)congestion charge proposal and I hope the County Council considers it. Pretty fair headline from the OM too given the balance of debate in the meeting yesterday.

Sleep tight Snowy. You were the very best rescue cat. I hope there are lots of mice to chase and excellent blackcurrant bushes to snooze under. 🌈

you could just throw money at drivers instead, Ms Scaysbrook said. ... yes, it was naive to expect her to speak in favour for something she herself had suggested previously, after all, it's the IOA.

This might actually tempt me to the Westgate. Though tbf there is a really cool K-beauty store in there somewhere.

🚗 🌍 Can we reach net zero and still use personal cars? Next week I’m joining a panel during Better Transport Week to explore how peer to peer car sharing can support more flexible and sustainable travel. Join us online for this important discussion. bettertransport.org.uk/events/can-w...

Before / After Rue de Moscou in the 8th arrondissement of Paris. The first image is a before / after comparison in 2023, the second image is in 2025. Even after the transformation is done, coming back two years later allows for an even more telling photo.

Boys are in the barbers. Emergency Father’s Day present stop at Caper, even more emergency coffee for me at the Larder. Incredibly lucky to have this street within walk/bike distance. #MagdalenRoad #oxford

Part 2 though 😂

Now can we accelerate putting a playground in Oxford city centre @oxfordcitycouncil.bsky.social ?

Badly parked cars, bikes, bins, sofas etc etc.

I love a night train. More night trains please.

Is this where I politely, and repeatedly, ask for city centre public space to be converted to a permanent playground?

We have receipts. www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/1000841...

Dodds saying they wanted policies that local people had inputted on. Like the citizens assembly, which labour sponsored and which recommended a congestion charge. And faster buses. Where do they come from, the moon? I DESPAIR. Saying 'NOT THIS' is not a policy!

cat hasn't eaten for three days and apparently I have been in the office all day with my top inside out. Is it Friday yet?!

Rhubarb has got a bit silly #allotmentlife
