More cats!
Bobby, a tabby cat, is lurking, and guarding his fishing rod, under his daybed. Woe-betide anyone (mostly his cousin Ty) trying to take it from him.

“Have Become”??? Ha!
Guardian Headline reads “Racism and sexism have become normalised in Britain, says equalities minister
Exclusive: Bridget Phillipson says politicians have helped fuel hatred and that police are not taking violence against women and girls seriously enough”

I even bought these really annoying pliers bc my nails couldn’t cope anymore 😁 I suspect making jump rings is likely easier than opening them!
Pliers with pink handles, designed for opening jump/split rings.

I forgot to take “before” pics, but she’s been washed, her edges painted, and had a full spa treatment. She’s So Gleamy ❤️❤️❤️ She’s also surprisingly capacious.

More planting. I have been given some acid loving plants, and the right soil, so I’m hoping I don’t kill this one. My Mother’s Day camellia (my mum and I give each other plants on Mother’s Day). The second photo is my poor, possibly dead gardenia.
The Camellia is deep pink and blousey, planted in a pale terracotta pot.

Yeah there was a study wasn’t there, about the green wave length
Green light produces antinociception by activating glutamatergic neurons in VLGN, and red light promotes nociception by activating GABAergic neurons in the ventral lateral geniculate body (VLGN)
This works with normal LED strips you can get online! Just set them to pure green and relax :)
Note: The newer human trial was less rigorous, but involved 698 participants who were classified as
"responders" or "non responders." Headache improved in 55% of all 3,232 attacks, in 82% of the 1,803 attacks treated by responders, and in 21% of the 1,429 attacks treated by non-responders.

I’ve read that to propagate hydrangeas, it needs some sort of clear covering. So IKEA food bags to the rescue.

Bobby and Ty, working hard. #caturday
Two cats snoozing around about my bureau. Bobby, the tabby, is curled up on a turquoise cushion on top of a swivel chair. Ty, the black battle cat, is sitting on his plinth, looking at me.

Not really sure what to do about this, particularly when the outside dewpoint is 92% as well. I can’t afford to run dehumidifiers constantly.

I’m sitting in the garden with an early morning cuppa, listening to the robins and the jackdaws.
A ramshackle garden with a neat fence. There are pots with lavender, pelargoniums, roses and nasturtium growing, and a pebbly flowerbed with geranium and NZ flax, and a very small pear tree. There’s a trailing green hosepipe in the foreground, and grassy patio.

Topping up my vitamin D whilst admiring how green the lawn is (we have a lawn, it’s very exciting, there’s almost no mud). I am still hopeful that clover will appear at some point, but we do seem to have low growing forgetmenots in there somehow.
