Midwinter London

It's great and you can certainly trot. I left very much Team Turner, the painter if not the man.

I hope the feeling is lifting.

We are in a wilful unenlightment.

It's a wonderful picture, and it's the words too.

This is exquisite, Lucy.

That looks absolutely lovely. I admire your ability to expend the effort when you're having such a horrible time.

What a tonic.

Have a couple of food places. Will dig out.

Wonderful.

I stared and stared at that dress.

Aw, that's not good. Hope it's a better day today.

Glorious

The purples are not good when they get fibrous. But then, what is.

Turnip soupability is something I have often pondered, but not got round to actually trying. I adore turnip, so find it unfathomable that it doesn't work for soup.

That's magnificent.

Reciprocated.

This Advent caldendar is a lovely thing, Lucy. I, for one, need it at the moment.

It's very warm. If you can be bothered to watch on youtube, I think see them enhances it too.

Dig It. Zoe Ball and Jo Wiley.

Very much like the sound of that.

Someone who's never had vertigo 😤

I can smell the diesel, hear the engine and the slamming of doors. I'm in London Euston, or maybe Liverpool Lime Street 😍.

Ooh, I'm stealing that. Sounds gorgeous.

How fantastic Pippa - you will need a holiday. Very exciting to have a new toy.

I hope you find something to do on your week off that counteracts - rather than reinforces - the feeling. It's horrible when it hits.

You must have been a very good girl to go off the lead. Lovely to see you, Pippa - the leaves match your eyes. 🤩

Oh no, gunfire. That's very frightening for a sweet girl like you. You were sensible to leave, pet.

Horrible thing to have imposed on you. Sadly, it says so much about what many boys/men see as their entitlement to leave a grubby imprint. I hope you can shake off the awfulness of it.

He is just the absolute best.

Fantastic day out, and what a good girl be be off-lead.
