Got lost in Everything Under by Daisy Johnson - literally, until realised the eerie confusion was oh-so deliberate.

Audiobook narrated like she lived it by Charlie Sanderson - download borrowed for free from @bathnes_libraries.

This. 
Jumping in after tonight’s #bigpowerswitchoff to post first read of Joy Williams. It spoke to me - and I loved the way it is not, perhaps, easy; you have to imagine yourself into this world - though it’s a small sad slide from the one I know.

Thanks to @bathnes_libraries for loan.

I did this last night, and I’ll be doing it again tonight - and every night: switch off for ten mins at 8pm.
 
Only turn off your mains if it’s safe to do so - otherwise just switch off whatever you can.

I heard this worked in Spain; people switched off and electricity prices there now frozen at 2019 levels? (I need to fact check - but still . . . We could do this?!)

Happy Solstice, friends! 🌞

Got so caught up in the Stanton Drew ceremony, I forgot to take a pic - so here’s my sprig of wishing mistletoe, accompanied by bauble of beauty made by lovely friend . . .

‘Tis the season . . . 

. . . to not go out walking without a gps-enabled offline map (or a friend and a dog that knows the way).

Quantocks walk Saturday. 

Views not great. 

I wasn’t scared at all. Just took pictures of lone trees in case we had to use them to find our way back . . .

Went back to the gym today. 

I was not serene, powerful or focused.

First time back since Feb 20. 
Sweaty. Puffed. Hurts.
