2019-2023. That’ll do. (Thanks everyone!). 2024: Decided I’d leave once the Tories had eaten themselves. Done and Busted. Now off to faff about on Instagrim.

Well, I checked the latest advice. Decided to walk from home (as I didn’t really understand it, although it seemed reassuringly familiar).

Thread...on going outside this week.

Someone had chalked this on the car, when I’d driven nearby for a walk last week. It may have helped them work through their worries.
Compare it with this kind welcome placed by a farmer elsewhere (now with added politeness, asking people to help, by just keeping dogs on leads)

Saw some nice things on the farm and some bizarre litter in the next village. I’m used to seeing fast food wrappers and energy drink cans...

A lamb acted up like a home-schooled kid.
Said hello (at a distance) whilst passing @butnorain & talked curlews. An owl flew by day through Margaret’s Field. Possibly a barn owl...(of course I’ve no photo).
#clapforcarers rainbows starting to fade/be renewed so many weeks in...

The last photo is the footpath I use which made the news before Christmas. It’s important paths are respected, by everyone involved. And that people stop saying “where are you from?”...
