Forget the image - my bramble overgrown hedge - but listen to the blackbird-song. Beautiful. #signsofspring

I know this is a very small step but I am 10 days post op from a knee replacement and baked this lovely apple cake this morning! Believe me, standing and walking whilst measuring and mixing us harder than it appears.

@marlinhoister.bsky.social I hope you’re okay. I’m trying to avoid TwitteX. But getting more used to here. I’m having my knee op on Tuesday. No time to worry, it was confirmed on Thursday. I’ll have a lot of time to stare at my phone.

@marlinhoister.bsky.social Thanks for telling me about this platform. I’m getting used to it and it’s friendlier than the other one. It takes a while. Been decorating the spare bedroom. I’ve listened to many back episodes of The Food Programme and Thinking Allowed. Nearly done.

My all time favourite poem is Keats’ Eve of St Agnes which is Jan 20th. Today feels like it! St. Agnes' Eve—Ah, bitter chill it was! The owl, for all his feathers, was a-cold; The hare limp'd trembling through the frozen grass, And silent was the flock in woolly fold: Painting by Millais
