Its back leg toes are so spindly!
Cute beige-coloured lizard on bricks with a stone wall in the background. It's about 40cm from nose to very long tail.

I think this what Baldrick was referring to when he talked about 'Rat au Vin' (cc @cabbagepatchcat.bsky.social)

Blue sky has reminded of the outstanding French crisp experience I had last week. Bought them at a petrol station loo stop and passed them round the car, to everyone's approval. Managed to save half the bag for the train home.

They're amazing, I had them for the first time last week! Can confirm they are super butter-y.

Let me tell you, they are amazing. And not even "subtly buttery" they are very, very buttery!

Gave up on Philippa Gregory and started on this instead. 20 pages in and I'm hooked.

In the old days I got an email when I got a new follower on the bird site. I saved the most exciting ones. This was one of them. He was new to the channel and I think this must have been a mistake.

I went in, did the shopping and got out as quick as I could. I don't do well in crowds.

Cows in town
Cows lying in a field. Behind can be seen a multi-storey halls of residence under construction and the end of a row of post-war houses. This is Castle Leazes in Newcastle city centre.

I am slightly addicted to online jigsaws, and am working my way through a Scottish themed set. Not sure about the whisky for breakfast in this one.

If you’d like, post one photo of a painting that you took with your very own hands.

Guess which team I picked this morning.

Currently listening to quite heavy rain falling outside (happily for my veggies). Meanwhile, this is what the BBC weather app says is happening
