I thought this didnβt sound right coming from her, and true enough, sheβs been royally chucked under the bus by the headline writer here.
Still sounds ok for 50 years old ππ»

Interesting list π€
I need to know moreβ¦ π€
Ahh - so probably one for the enthusiasts only then π. Itβs one I shall add to my list - sounds wonderful.
Thatβs great news Chris. Is it only opening the full length for that one weekend, or might they open it more regularly, if itβs a success?

I love hearing from people who have read my books. It's great to know that readers β and other writers β are enjoying Upon A White Horse. It will be out in paperback on April 23.
That man @peteralanross.bsky.social has done it again. Just finished reading 'Upon a White Horse' - beautifully written, frequently moving, peppered with lovely bits of humour and just endlessly interesting. Well, it does have an end, sadly, but you know what I mean. Superb.

But we rise from the ashes like a fart joke phoenix. AT LAST!
Last month I travelled from the Highlands of Scotland to Cornwall in pursuit of spring and finished a watercolour and post every day - here's Day One at Stobe Kirk in Scotland. www.digest.andymarsh...

Jules Rimet founded the football club Red Star in Paris.
While Rimet went on to organise the World Cup, Red Star became a symbol of WWII resistance and left-wing activism.

Itβs your regular timeline cleanser.
We venerate the late Queen but if youβve read Entitled youβll be disgusted at what she chose to ignore and indeed subsidised.
For anyone interested in motorways - and I genuinely am - this will be worth checking out.
If I lived in Sheffield, Iβd go and hang out by these freezers. There are probably worse ways to spend your day β¦
Thanks ππ»
Yeah Iβve checked the site, but not sure how up to date that info is. Thereβs conflicting info out there saying the on site lockers are not operational.
Can any of the railway people I follow on here give me up to date information about left-luggage options at Innsbruck Hbf please? Seems to be conflicting info online - not helped by AI sticking its nose in
@rupertairbear.bsky.social I think you have to be following me to allow me to send a DM. You can unfollow once weβve concluded the chat.
