Happy Easter through the snow, hail, sleet, (tiny amount of) sun & biting biting wind! Never has a cup of tea & a hot cross bun been so welcome. Baxter will forgive me once he's thawed out... #happyeaster🐰 #ᴇᴀsᴛᴇʀsᴜɴᴅᴀʏ #snow❄️

"Carlotto was full of garlic & gaiety", aren't we all darling? Anna May Wong mesmerising in Song & a man played the accordian & the piano simultaneously live! #Hippfest has been an absolute triumph, a reminder - if we needed one - that the art of cinema has been intoxicating since the beginning.

Splendid solstice: celebrating the shortest day with a quiet walk in the woods, collecting our sack of fabulous festive lamb from @growwildorganics & finishing with the Service of Lessons & Carols in St Michael's Church. Definitely feeling Christmassy now! #solstice #christmastime

I've been lucky enough to interview some amazing authors, but tonight was really special: this young woman is a shining star. Bright, beautiful, funny & fierce: the one and only Len Pennie take a bow, that was so life affirming! Happy Monday all! #poyumsannaw #poyums

And now for something completely different... Edinburgh PsychFest delivered in spades, stand out was Anna Erhard & Co: may we all be slightly taller than our friends & slightly disappointed in botanical gardens. The peacocks weren't even that majestic! #psychfest #summerhall #Edinburgh

So glad we paid for the fancy recliner seats to watch #28yearslater. Of course I spent most of it curled up in a ball hiding: SO tense! SO good!! Will be ready to rewatch as soon as I've unclenched...

Incredible blood-red moonrise tonight - which I've entirely failed to capture - and which is either a beautiful tribute to all the lovers on this Saint #Valentines day, or the start of some biblical plague... Fun! Happy Valentine's day everyone.
