My understanding is that more trees on farmland would help farm birds and sea birds.

Not only does London have a significant proportion of the population, but doesn't it average at a lower age than most of England? There's a lot to unpack in a stat like that.

If only I had the money, and didn't need to commute to work, I think I could be very happy there.

Today I used a Supernatural GIF in the work chat and got a bunch of likes. I don't know if it was Eye of the Tiger they thought was the reference I was making, or whether I work with a bunch of women who (like me) love Dean Winchester and all his silliness

I don't want to go to work tomorrow, I want to spend time with people I care about. I want to catch up with old friends. I want to share memories and food and laughter. I hate that there's never enough time. So glad I have some time away with friends book, but I need to grab some of the others.

Yesterday someone I was once very close with passed away far too soon (she was only in her 50s), and today my elderly uncle was injured & has had a trip to hospital. Earlier in the year my aunt died, and someone else I was once very close with (who was formative to the me now).

That's all folks - the last of this year's tomatoes have just gone into my lunch for tomorrow. There's still a few kg of them in the freezer and a couple of jars of dried in the cupboard.

If you ever wanted to imagine yourself into The Hound of the Baskervilles - this house is by Stapleton's/Nunn Cross and the Great Grimpen Mire/Fox Tor Mire. If I won the lottery I'd put a bid in. luscombemaye.com/property/pri...

I've seen people warn that we might end up at war with Russia - we're already war. The division, the hatred, it all serves their purpose and weakens us. Patriotism means coming together, not dividing. Not turning on each other. Tolerance, except intolerant behaviours.

Some of the people I've been in a relationship with can read this, so I'm not going to say what I was asked. But it felt at the time like an invasion of not only my privacy but also theirs. Better gender care moves away from narratives set nearly a century ago.

HodgePodgeH @steviesun.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

In the UK now GPs can refer direct to GICs. This has cut out the part of the process where you had to first see a psych from the community mental health team. They were not gender specialists, and my experience was utterly clear (after) that they were looking for a very specific narrative.

100

HodgePodgeH @steviesun.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

Yes. To the locum psych who was gatekeeper to getting the funding for a referral to the GIC. He was clearly looking for a very set narrative. Damned for following the script and damned for not.

My father remembers cycling up one summer solstice, probably in the 60s, and practically having the place to himself to watch the sunrise. Closest I get now is watching the Newgrange live stream

Yes. That'll capture young audiences - they should do that.

That won't take long - it's the UK; taxes are sorted by your employer. If that's your only source of income there's literally nothing to do.

Spent my morning fighting the good fight (helping run a community event and then tidying up afterwards). Now I'm going to have a cookie and do some gardening.

You are not defined by your worst decision, biggest mistake or most embarrassing day. You’re more than your health issues, job status or ability to produce for capitalism. We’re all doing our best to survive… and you are worth it just as you are.

My partner has lived in the south long enough that I think we really do need to arrange a visit to places including (but not limited to): stone henge, west Kennet, ham hill, and Avebury.

This morning my partner and I had a discussion about what drinks are covered by the word "juice". But tell me again how "English" is one identity.

I once had the absolute privilege of visiting a cabin along that valley, and observing (through binoculars) stags in the Hill fort opposite. I lived in Drewsteignton for six years but that valley still presents ways to take my breath away with its beauty.

Sometimes I get frustrated that some people consider themselves counter cultural because they join in with the age old idea of finding LGBT+ people icky. Frustrated. Bewildered. Sad. There are different readings of the Bible. That is normal and to be expected.

Noticing the nights drawing in? 🌙 October brings a big shift, with most of the UK losing over 2 hours of daylight this month. Do you enjoy the cosy evenings or miss the longer days?

It's always interesting to see reactions to the fact that more women than men receive UC. I haven't recently looked at the age breakdown though.

My sample is biased but every one I know in their 70s does some kind of unpaid work, even if it's just helping with the school run (but usually loads more). There's a lot of people out there who value helping others.
