Good morning. Dull, wet, light breeze. 13C. Due to brighten up. Home will be stormy when I’m travelling later though. #photooftheday is Loch Assynt and Ardvreck castle and some striking reflections, I think. Wishing you a good day. #Scotland #photography #reflections #castle #ruins #clouds

Reflections of clouds, ruined castle and clouds in still water. Subjects coming from right to centre. Vestiges of snowbonnthe mountain too.

@thebrokenspine.co.uk Hey @alanparrywriter.co.uk Thanks for keeping this going. Hope you’re doing OK. For #PoemsAbout #Hollow this came to mind so apologies to Elliot fans (and Elliot I suppose) Away from home and tied up so will dip in when I can to read. #poetrycommunity #poetry #poems #WIP

A poem by Debbie Ross Entitled Hollow Men

Text in 5 uneven stanzas as follows Final line in quote marks.

Hollow Men

Driven by ambition
and greed for more
of everything.

They pursue mammon
like leeches
sucking the life
out of everything.

Moral bankruptcy
is their stock in trade.
They have everything
and nothing.

Sending metal into space
carving up the precious earth
for profit.

These hollow men
will be the death of us.
I’m sure
‘this is how the world ends’.

@janpsolivagant.bsky.social Thanks for this week’s #PromptCombo #NamingSorrow I feel a bit hesitant to post this hastily cobbled together effort that’s had no edits done, but I fear I won’t post it at all if I hesitate, so here is my offering. Thanks. Enjoy your hosting week #poetry #Poems

A poem by Debbie Ross in 4 irregular stanzas entitled

Counting My Blessings

Text as follows
Should we name our sorrows, number the dents and scratches on our bodywork?
Should we extricate and extrapolate,
fix and fiddle
with mechanisms we don't understand?
Sure, naming the beast may reduce its powers, bring into light what has been kept buttoned and bonneted.
Mil tell you my sad stories if you tell me yours.
But remember,
we are not our past, we are not
what was done to us.
We are stitched together with love and friendship and all the bright things that drive out the dark.

Good morning. Peachy, bright, still. 4C. Frost overnight. #photooftheday from the weekend, which was stunning. There were more folk at our beach yesterday morning at 7:30,taking photos and swimming, than there are usually during the day. Have a good one #Scotland #photography #sunrise #sutherland

Beach sunrise. Pre- sunrise sky with blue sky, highly, whispy pink clouds above peachy cloud strata and below, on the horizon line, bright glowing yellow orange. Silver sea gently incoming over rocks, right. A stripe of wet sand and a corner of dark, drier sand bottom rights

A poem by Debbie Ross in 1 stanza of 18 words

entitled

Flying Home

text follows:

We dissect the land at strange angles, our orange wings carving through clouds, throwing shapes across the fields.

A plane wing in white with orange fins cuts across a pink-orange sky with a band of yellow, below snow dusted mountains.

Hi #PoemsAbout peeps @thebrokenspine.co.uk @alanparrywriter.co.uk Thanks for this week’s #Possessed theme. Not been contributing in this space recently, but the theme turned out this bit of weirdness. Thanks for the platform. Catch up as and when. Always look forward to the contributions. #poetry

A poem by Debbie Ross in 4 stanzas entitled

Own It

I’ve sometimes been called
self-possessed
and maybe I am
a bit full of myself.

Let down
too many times,
promises broken.

I inhabit myself,
haunted
by memories,
traumas’ scars
laid bare.

I fill the cavern
of my soul
with every bright thought,
each happy thing
the day can bring
obsessed
with just living.

Hello @jenthorne.bsky.social hope you’ve enjoyed your #PromptCombo hosting week for #doors. A great theme. It’s taken me all week to come up with this nonsense. Apologies. I had a thread of something but unpicked it somewhere in the process! Thanks for the opp’ anyway. #poetry #poems #blueskypoetry

A poem by Debbie Ross entitled

Our Old Wooden Door

6 stanzas of varying length.

Text as follows :

We had a porch door once
that stuck
and squeaked
the lock didn’t work properly
you had to wiggle the key.

We blamed that door
for everything -
getting soaked,
dropping the shopping,
not getting indoors quickly
enough when you needed a pee.

Turns out it wasn’t the door at all
it was the plane tree
sending out roots,
disturbing foundations
doing its best to live and be free.

That old wooden doors’ issues
were a symptom
of something bigger,
a problem down deep.

We replaced it with a new PVC model
when the underpinning was done
laid wood to rest with its kin
dug up and poisoned
no longer impinging.

The street was never the same
with the plane trees all lopped
the doors were all working
but we lost our leafy green backdrop.

building his own #software platform for #lifeboats (he’s a volunteer ) #reslience teams and #workboat operators. It’s been a tough gig. See what he says in the graphic of his post. Please share widely and give his page a follow (you can turn off notifications) Thank you. #supportindiebusiness

Meet TeamTrak, a software platform I've developed to help lifeboat stations, workboat operators and resilience teams manage their day-to-day operations. Everything from crew availability and training records to equipment, maintenance, safety management and much more, all in one place. The biggest "deadline" sales-wise is the forthcoming Workboat Code 3 date of 13/12/2026, where most workboats that don't have a Safety Management System (SMS - which my system provides), will not be able to sail.
It's been a huge amount of work, with plenty of late nights/early mornings, a fair bit of head-scratching and probably an unhealthy amount of coffee.
But this isn't just a hobby or another little project. I've built a company around it, and I'm working hard to turn it into a successful business.
And here's where I'd really appreciate your help.
I'm not asking anyone to buy anything, donate anything or part with a penny. All I'm asking is that you give the TeamTrak page a follow and, more importantly, share it far and wide.
You never know who might see it. Somewhere amongst your friends, colleagues and contacts could be someone involved in maritime operations, emergency services, search and rescue or an organisation that could genuinely benefit from what I've built.
Even if none of that means anything to you, a share could make an enormous difference to me.
So please, give the page a follow, spread the word and help me get TeamTrak out into the big wide world.
Thanks, folks. I really do appreciate it!

Good morning. Bright. Breezy. 9C. #photooftheday is a different perspective of our home beach, winter casting its shadow at 17:35 yesterday. A lone walker. It looks wilder as we head down the year, but nonetheless beautiful. Have a good day. #Scotland #photography #Sutherland #beach

A virtually empty beach cast in shadow by sand dunes left. A wiggle of wet sand at the strand line reflects the sky. The sea, right, is bright blue. A gentle white surf breaks on the shore. The expanse of shadowed sand with a lone walker stretches into the horizon where hills are lit by sun and burnished with autumn colour. A band of cloud rest above and above that a clear blue sky.

A poem by Debbie Ross entitled Apocalypse Now
Stanzas 1 -4
When I was young the fear of mushroom clouds was real
old men pushing buttons ending it all
and then the Sunday School doom merchants fed me Revelations of fire and horsemen the 'earth laid bare'
I thought that wars might end us the human race destroying each other and the earth rubbled with us
And the disaster movie makers had their say with meteors wiping us out
destroying everything

Stanzas 5 and 6 of a poem Apocalypse Now by Debbie Ross

thought we might live to see the sun
grow large
Finally
a red giant desiccating our planet
but now I'm not sure we'll make it that far disaster wears a human face as we melt the Doomsday ice and set the world on fire our blue green gem of a home destroyed by greed.

Good morning. Clear, bright, still. 12C. Last boat shot for #photooftheday today,although I have hundreds more I could bore you with! Not really a boat - though there are some far right - paddle boarder Loch Morlich. Enjoy your weekend. #Scotland #photography #LochMorlich #CairngormsNationalPark

Good morning. Cloudy, breezy. Sun not yet up. 12C. Penultimate #boat #photooftheday - the harbour at John O’Groats with the old passenger ferry & a fishing boat. The Pentland Firth separates the mainland from the Orkney Islands it has some of the fastest and strongest tidal currents in the world.

A small harbour with a wall and boardwalk. A small ferry and fishing boat moored with the cabin of another vessel bottom left. Clear blue sky with cloud on the horizon. Short grass in the foreground.
