I've been away for 2 weeks and thanks to my polytunnel timed watering system I'm going to need a jungle-style machete to get to the courgettes at the back!! 🥒🍅🥔🌶🥦🥬 I won't be needing to buy veggies for a while! 🙌 #GrowYourOwn #HomeGrown #Polytunnel #SelfSufficiency #VeganHeaven! #Vegan

Just had an insight to what much of August will involve. I've spent the last hour removing & adding commas to "et al" & replacing "and" with "&" to all parenthetical citations in my 324 pg working thesis. Good lord. 🫠 Bring back the "cat fairys" & other mythical creatures of justice! 😺 🧚 ✊

Never has a #Research quote been more applicable. This image only shows *key* transcription quotes* from 8 monthly workshops in 1 location (1 year). My original #PhD intention = workshops in 3 different locations over 3 academic years! 👀 But it was mega fun! 😅 🙏 @drhelenkara.bsky.social & co!
A screen shot of over 80 pages of colour coded transcription quotes including, codes, sub-themes and main themes in line with reflexive thematic analysis. This shows just one year of relevant quotes and no other creative data that was collected over 3 years. The screen shot has an overlaid text box with the following text: 

"Data gathering through creative methods is exciting. But we do note that gathering data in creative ways can be so much fun that at times we can forget to stop, and so end up with too much data and a headache at the analysis stage."

Sir David Attenborough 'overwhelmed' by 100th birthday greetings – audio
Sir David Attenborough has released an audio message thanking the public for the flood of goodwill messages sent in the run-up to his 100th birthday. The veteran broadcaster said he had expected to celebrate quietly, but expressed gratitude for the well-wishes he had received. Attenborough, who was born on 8 May 1926, joined the BBC in 1952 and went on to become one of the world's most respected and influential wildlife presenters * Tiny parasitic wasp named after David Attenborough for his 100th birthday Continue reading...

Bit late for #Caturday but I was going through all my old pics last night and found this. The first and most recent photo of Alfie - 15 years apart. 🥰 He's just too cute, then and now 🥹 #CatsofBluesky #FurBaby
Two side by side photos of my cat Alfie, taken 15 years apart:

Photo 1 (on the left) is a close-up photo of him when he was a tiny kitten. He’s looking straight into the camera with huge round eyes and fluffy ginger-and-white fur.

Photo 2 (on the right) is of Alfie a couple of days ago as an adult, sitting on the grass in my garden under a striped parasol. His ginger-and-white fur looks bright in the sunlight, and he’s sitting upright calmly looking at me becuase he wants cuddles.

You can clearly see the same but expanded markings in each photo such as his fluffy white socks and ginger patterns on this head.

The full lacy circle is shown in the top left square photo, and the close-ups highlight the openwork mesh, textured stitches, and scalloped edging.

After waking up in a panic about a thesis writing dream (yep, those are a thing now) and feeling well for the first time in over 2 weeks I thought I'd start my annual leave with a sunrise kettlebell & hot tub sesh! Recharged & ready for the thesis - yep, annual leave for thesis is also a thing now!

On a scale of 1-9 of Alfie looking after me yesterday, how are you feeling today? #CatNurse #Caturday #CatsOfBluesky
A 3×3 collage of Alfie, a ginger and white fluffy long‑haired cat relaxing, sleeping, and sitting while "looking after" me while I'm ill. Each image is numbered 1 through 9.

Individual Numbered Pics from left to right, top to bottom:

1 - Alfie sits curled on a sofa, looking to the side with his tail wrapped around his body.

2 - A close‑up of Alfie resting his head on a blanket, eyes half‑closed and sleepy.

3 - Alfie is curled tightly in a ball, napping with its nose tucked into its fur.

4 - A close‑up of Alfie sleeping peacefully, eyes closed and paws tucked into his face. He has a big smile.

5 - Alfie sitting upright on a blanket‑covered surface, looking toward the camera with a relaxed expression. (Ready for snuggles)

6 - Alfie passed out with his face completely  buried in a purple fleece blanket. As if to say, no, not today!

7 - An extreme close‑up of Alfies face as he lies down, eyes almost closed. Maximum contented chill!

8 - Alfie fast asleep on a soft
 surface, nose and whiskers prominent in the foreground.

9 - Alfie sitting on a blanket on my lap, looking gently toward the camera. Also ready for cuddles.

Behind the green mesh partition are 4 scraggly rescue hens, 2 of which are visible scratching around on the floor. The partition is to slowly introduce the new rescues to the existing flock. The top of the photo shows lots of flower plants in hanging baskets and garden decorations such as glass butterflies and metal bugs.A photo of a large undercover chicekn run made from a polytunnel frame and pvc corrugated sheets. On the left section the run is partitioned with green mesh and inside are 4 new rescue hens. On the right is the main chicken run with 2 very healthy and fluffy chickens who were resuced almost 2 years ago. The new hens are eating their food and drinking from their hanging water feeders while the older pair are eating porridge from a plastic container because this is the only thing that stops them shouting in protest about the new arrivals! We are on day 3 of 10 of introducing the new hens to the established flock.A photo of a healthy recuse hen called Nugget who is looking through to a partitioned section of a chicken run where new rescues hens are starting to be introduced to the flock.Me sitting a a chicken run with a cup of tea and wrapped in an electric blanket ready to write a thesis!
