Some very jaunty angles going on here...

The top & bottom of the door are not square, and the floor is not level

Bees have been very busy on ivy around here lately. It was only the other week that I learned on here that there's a specific Ivy Bee!

Gimli was a large cat - bigger than many of these so-called "dogs". As if to prove the point, here he is monopolising an entire double bed.

I don't think I'd ever seen one before this year, but now I've seen half a dozen - from South Devon to North Hampshire

That depends on what secrets the "caretaker" has hiding in his cupboard ...

Gimli also liked shoes & spiders

Strangely, the cat looks *very* happy!

I hope they pack the cat litter better than Pets At Home did ...

A cardboard box marked "FRAGILE", with the "this way up" arrows pointing down.
The box is very battered, and one side is completely split - revealing the contents (a bag of cat litter)

Also (used to be) used in those warning lamps on roadworks. They are (were?) known as "lantern batteries". "Eveready" and "Ever Ready" were different companies

Or, perhaps, they were filming much earlier in the year? Saw the prog last night - views of Pevensey castle were similar.

From an @englishheritage.bsky.social FB post this morning. We were on the same spot a month ago. It seems they've had some rain since... www.facebook.com/englishherit...

Copied from EH post this morning:
A camera person filming 2 men standing in the battlefield at Battle Abbey.
There is green grass in the forground

My photo of the same location a month ago.
All the grass looks very brown and parched.

When I came to Basingstoke in the late 80s, you'd have to travel up to ~ Abingdon before you'd start seeing the odd Red Kite. Nowadays, there's often several Red Kites to be seen.
