@isabelrogers.bsky.social Just listening and watching BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and Sir Stephen Hough playing Grieg's piano concerto. Recalling a time when we were at a concert with him and RPO and during one piece there was some audience noise. He wasn't happy and it was played again.

@nnweather.bsky.social @metmatt-taylor.bsky.social Have had 1.2mm rain so far this morning. BBC weather app says chance of rain is 0% in NN7. Why so wrong?

Le Consort at the Proms. Lyricism, dynamics, focus, clarity. The cellist! All of them! I wouldn't have believed what they achieved was possible. Truly outstanding.

@metmatt-taylor.bsky.social It feels like the driest summer in Northants since 1976. Is it?

I've nurtured nettles for various butterflies. None have turned up. In the flower border, where none were expected, are these little beauties

Anyone know what this is that's turned up in my wild flower grass? It's about 60cm tall.

@nnweather.bsky.social Car reports 27° in Northampton and 25° in Piddington. Is that right?

If this keeps up, all of the UK should be able to see aurora tonight after it gets dark enough (from 21.20). Let’s see! 🤞

@nnweather.bsky.social At 6.4mm so far today, I'd call this steady rain, not light rain. It started here just before 8am.

@nnweather.bsky.social Is it really -4 this morning or is my weather centre having a wobbly?

I think steps round a shopping centre should count double. They're definitely twice as tiring.

@chrislintott.bsky.social What would the Highway Code braking distances be on the moon? I'm thinking that on a loose surface it would feel like forever - but is that right?
