On the full set of questions, my home accent is pretty well pinned. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Concentrating on my original accent, pretty good.

I missed the interesting clouds, but still some nice colours happening.

The cloud is quite low in Leith this morning.

Every possible shade of green seen in one place today. This photo doesn't do it justice of course.

Did I ever post that video here of a sparrowhawk hanging upside-down off the wings of a terrified starling which is clinging for dear life onto a branch?

The wasps are looking pretty happy with life at the bottom of the garden.

Never ceases to impress me just how popular these flowers are with the local spicy flies. They're barely open yet, but being swarmed.

Bit late for a nice sunset, but you can see the Forth bridges if you look closely.

Sorry, i was referring to this sort of thing, which possibly had similar design aims:

Garbage tonight. Was fun. And Shirley manifested the rain perfectly for the finale.

The big yellow things are still looking big and yellow today. They look much bigger in real life than this photo might suggest.

Big yellow things in Leith docks against a blue sky. They are bases for wind turbines.

Was gifted a very nice pair of socks. They appear to have been designed by a Pluto recividist though. #astronomy
