Photograph taken many years ago looking down on a white compartmentalised box containing 18 small clear plastic bottles with silver lids, each holding a different coloured fine glitter. From top left to bottom right: white, silver, turquoise, kingfisher, emerald, chartreuse, sunflower yellow, bronze, pale gold, in your face gold, copper, orange, bubblegum pink, mauve, cherry pink, magenta, lilac and black. Yes I put them in a logical, rainbow ish order after purchase. Just some of the events, these little beauties have brought joy at: * 'Year 6 Fest' (parents wanted to be festival chic too) * Christmas work dos (even glittered someone's beard in their country's flag at their request) * Butlins 90s weekender (fancy dress). In the mood for a bit this morning but wouldn't look so professional for management meetings this morning 😂.

Sending a little sparkle to all those who need it this morning.
Just because 😊

If you zoom in you can see Taco and Badger waiting behind the barrier for dad to stop taking chances.

Women have helped change the world in many different ways, but possibly the strangest involved a woman from Glasgow named May Donoghue and a dead snail.

Shine upon me, sun
and bathe me, rain
and lay softly, dewdrops
and refresh this brow again.

Urg, another hill! This rocky dirt path is challenging yet beautiful all at the same time. Moss borders the way growing effortlessly from giant chunks of bedrock. Trees beckon, 'lean on me if you tire' as their roots provide steps up, up, up...in the distance more forest, more hills, such is life

the incline never seems to level

This image shows the ruins of Old Mulgrave Castle, located within the Mulgrave Estate near Lythe, North Yorkshire The ruins are part of an enclosure castle originally constructed around 1214. Throughout its history, the site has served as a prison, a hunting lodge, and even a location for poaching. The castle is situated inside the picturesque Mulgrave Woods, which are accessible to the public via walking trails. Image Stephen Buckingham CC BY-SA 2,0

🧵Hidden within the woodland of the Mulgrave Estate near Sandsend and Whitby lie the atmospheric ruins of Old Mulgrave Castle. The stone remains seen today were developed around 1200 by Robert de Turnham, replacing an earlier Norman motte-and-bailey stronghold known as Foss

Photograph taken in a quiet spot, hidden away from fellow visitors. Wanted a different angle from the usual looking over the bridge to the water below. Tucked away at the base of a bridge between two lakes at Studley Royal Water Gardens. The water gently cascades down from one lake to the other. Manicured lawn in the background with hedges and trees. On the face of the bridge were plants growing from crevices and flowering beautifully.

Awake to birdsong…it’s idiotically early, light only just beginning to seep into the margins of the sky, but I don’t mind a bit! After the darkness of winter, I’ll take every suggestion of light possible!
Wishing you a lovely day, dear early birds (human and winged!)
