Good Morning! Got up early this morning and saw a spectacularly starry sky: Jupiter, crescent moon and Mars aligned, with Mars also aligned with Sirius and another star (forgot the name, sorry). For London, this is glorious! ⭐⭐⭐ #astronomy #writerslife #coffee

Good Morning The trees in my area of London have suffered terrible stress all summer, losing their leaves in an effort to survive. So what does Camden Council do? Pollard them so that they have no chance of recuperating and will inevitably die. #evil #writerslife #coffee
