It’s taken me all of two weeks of working at @theceltichouse.bsky.social before relenting and buying another book! 😬 Looking forward to this one by @cjcookebooks.bsky.social.

Only on Islay when you visit someone are you sent away with freshly-baked scones and some poems! 😘

Choose 20 books that have stayed with you or influenced you. One book per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just covers! Day 1 #Books #BookSky #BookChallenge

It’s nearly time for Christmas on the island (and I may just stay there!) 🏝️ Looking forward to the clear skies and the sea breeze and blowing away those cobwebs. #Islay

The humble Kunafa Tea in Bradford is absolutely wonderful! I would very much recommend it for all your Levantine delicacies.

Love this bit of Bradford street art by Ruth Fettis. It brightens up my walk up the hill to work every morning!

Made this pumpkin, fennel and blue cheese lasagne for dinner this evening and it’s pretty bloody delicious if I do say do myself! 😋

Here’s my first #catsofbluesky contribution. My cat, Aggie, mostly likes to snooze and look at things with disdain. She wholeheartedly rejects Bradford tap water and, true to her Scottish roots, insists on drinking Highland Spring. The fields of Islay will always be her spiritual home.
