Franciscan gay chap from Hampshire UK. Looking to make friends and meet like minded people. Of the left. Proud owner of a lurcher pup who has become quite life consuming. And wonderfully in love!

🚨🚨 BREAKING: Activists have unveiled a 'Cut the Royal Budget' banner in front of Buckingham Palace after MPs voted to give the royals another £50 million in Sovereign Grant money. It's time to scrap the grant, it's time to get rid of the royals. #AbolishTheMonarchy

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

salad cream is the sauce of the gods.... much tastier than mayo. fishfinger and salad cream sandwich is peak taste. From my research, I have found the M and S one is best and great value..

Well, here in Gosport, yesterday was indeed quite warm.. wondering what today will bring! Apart from iced drinks and shade, hopefully nothing too strenuous. Keep chilled folks!

As a labour member and southerner who rejoiced at Starmer's arrival.. if Burnham from up't north can win the next election, then good on him! He seems to connect well with Manchester, so let's hope the rest of the country is as welcoming. My fingers remain tightly crossed.

With the shit show of the news so often invading our space, was wondering if anyone else finds some use in Radio 3 Unwind. Often retreating there for calm and peace and very much enjoy the often unusual blend of music with bird song.

Earlier on the sea front.. was joyous to start the day with the gentle breeze and warmth of brother sun. Both of us now hunkering in shade and one of us facing a laptop. Happy Monday!

Well, that's my Saturday plans changed.. Portsmouth Pride has been cancelled due to bad weather! I guess glitter and stormy weather doesn't mix. I'll put the thong and spandex away for another year. Kettle on.

One of those walks this morning when the words of Hopkins sprang to mind 'The world is charged with the grandeur of God. It will flame out, like shining from shook foil; It gathers to a greatness, like the ooze of oil Crushed.'
