And fourthly, and finally, a reminder re @annestgwilym.bsky.social latest and fourth collection of poetry which is beautiful and inspiring. I will add a link below for purchasing this, highly recommended.

Photo of cover of Annest’s new collection:
Contemplation of Roses
Annest Gwilym
Lapwing
Ballyhalbert

Dandelion Clock Paperweight
If wishes were dandelions I'd wish for one like this.
A constellation of miniature parachutes untouched by time and weather.
A chick's downy feathers - chirps frozen - in a glass prison.
An old man's corn silk static head of hair.
The toothless ghost of a flower with no fierce jolt of yellow petals.
A paused atomic bomb minus fallout or nuclear winter.
A stopped clock.
By Annest Gwilym

Watching Kitchen Best Bites and the Hairy Bikers went to the Pont du Gard et Nimes, which reminded me of an absolute carnage of a school trip which 'bravely' (!) mixed fifth yrs & second yrs... with wine on the table at dinner it went about as much as you'd expect.
