The Shard stretching into the ever present combination of low clouds and fog in London. People walking the streets below

The Shard literally scraping the sky yesterday 🏙️

I believe my most recent trip to Waterstones worked to stop this! 😅🙈

I’m prepared to bid against myself just in case 😬 I don’t think anyone else has discovered this? 🙊

.. not going to be awake for another 3 hours, though 😟

Uh-oh 🙈

No sign of Crowley (yet), but it’s a good night anyway 🥰.

Warmup before leaving for London tomorrow 😇

It really is lovely! As is your story 🥰

5 of said 6 novels sitting beautifully on one of my shelves! (The 6th resting on my Kobo 😇)

That's not a bad view! 😮😍

I saw this on ko-fi, not knowing it was for you, but I thought I recognised Captain anyway, and it turned out to actually be him 🥰

Was this the passing man…? 😏

Awww 🥰

Took long enough 😣

If you have any tips for itinerary or must-sees, I’d be grateful! Planning on January / February either ‘27 or ‘28

That sounds like the best plan! I’m also mostly partial to the North Island 🙊 (also because the place I grew up looks a little like Fiordland, so not _that_ exotic to me!)

I have so many places plotted for a potential trip, that we’d have to spend about a year in AoNZ to go to all 🙈🙈 I just can’t choose!

Aw, Piha beach😍 I dream of going there 🥰

an Agatha Christie puzzle book

Sounds brilliant!

Currently delving into this one, but wouldn’t mind the added joy of Ed and Stede!

Found a packet of Minnesota wild rice (black rice) that I’d forgotten about - and would you look at that! There’s a stupid Canadian wolfbird on it! 🐺🦆

Or an owl? Could have been an owl.. 🦉

Sounds like you’re working hard, that’s inspiring! ❤️ Need to keep it up myself, but … yeah, it’s hard 😟

Oops, I slipped when in the bookshop 😅

My tbr pile was not happy when I returned 🙈🤭

For fear of sounding condescending - but it’s from a good place, I promise - I’m so proud of you ❤️

I thought for a second there was a new chapter 😬🙈😅
