Yesterday I was chastised by my daughters teacher and told that it is highly inappropriate for her to know the term adhd at 8 years old. Don’t worry though, because she assured me that they are a very inclusive school!

For an environmental manager it’s quite satisfying that my daughter’s old nursery is planned as a test site for direct air carbon capture. I’ll be watching with interest.

4 year old said I must be a kid because I stopped to watch a plane fly over and only kids do that. She then confused herself when she realised I was about to drive and, as we all know, kids don’t drive. She finally opted that I must in fact be a cat. Exceptional logic.

Absolute floof.

Belle held up well and looking good (as good as she ever did anyway)

Forky has been retrieved for repairs. Slight oversight using washable paints. I’m hoping second generation Forky will prove more water resistant.

Scared to go out and see what the rainstorms last night have made of Forky and Belle.

Scarecrows are up. I’m pretty proud of Forky. Belle is a creepy as ever.

First garden strawberries of the year! Yay! 🍓🍓🍓

Daughter wasn’t impressed with my attempt at a nose, so she is going without.

I’m not sure if we’ve made her more or less terrifying…

Anybody wanting to guarantee themselves nightmares…we’re attempting to make a ‘Belle’ scarecrow 😳😬

Naturally we all know Johnson is a habitual liar, but it is somehow still satisfying to see a shiny official report confirming it.

Made some friends this evening.

If you’re not playing on a sewage outfall pipe are you even at the british seaside?

This evening’s entertainment is watching some people who have been stranded by the tide getting their feet soaked crossing a river to get back. Wish I’d brought my cider with me.

Spring looking completely delicious and buzzing with life.

Sensory processing head spin - my daughter can walk through a patch of stinging nettles without flinching, but clothes against her body feel like they’re stinging.

I used to work for a water company. It was weird how many of the staff were trained and passionate environmentalists and yet the collective effort to make improvements was so poor. Profit over principles, don’t see it how it will change while they are privately run.

Little adrenaline boost this morning wait for the bus that never arrived to get me to the train station in time. Got to love public transport in the UK.
