Amongst other things, I am an amateur folk musician living in Umbria, Italy, with my wife, two dogs and 14 cats. I play guitar, dulcimer guitar, melodeon, mandolin and synth, none especially proficiently, but hey :) As well as folk, I also create electronic music tracks. #Music #Musician #Folk #FolkMusic #FolkMusician #folkies #ImprovisedMusic #AmbientMusic #fedi22

My Italian lesson today: "gomma a terra" - a flat tire. But, as frequently happens in small town , all turned out fine. We were headed out to dinner last night when our car informed us that we had a tire emergency. We drove the rest of the 800m to the restaurant to figure out what to do over wine and pizza. The proprietor was happy to let us leave the car in the parking lot, because we decided it was a tomorrow problem and had a nice walk home on a pleasant spring evening. 1/3

Well that coaching taster was great and I am very excited to working with this person. The aim is to help me get my life/career mojo back as I have completely lost my zest and feel very rudderless. That recent bipolar episode did me some psychological/confidence damage

@purplepadma just to say the like is not for the last sentence, but the rest of it! 😆

I’m sorry but I can’t vote for a party whose leader says membership of the SM&CU will not increase trade. I just can’t.

It is foolish and self-indulgent for the anti-Starmer left to split the Labour vote

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/article/2024/may/26/it-is-foolish-and-self-indulgent-for-the-anti-starmer-left-to-split-the-labour-vote

It is just so bad of us. The Guardian clearly believes that we should all (across the whole of the UK) vote for Labour, whether through policies and proposals disgust and repel us or not. Vote for bad or worse….

Our mulberry tree is popular today. Earlier there was a fox in the branches, and we've just watched a pine marten filling his belly.

Thor was originally given the name Rocky when we adopted him as a baby, but I think he’s rather squishy.

He’s definitely a lover, not a fighter.

Happy Thorsday!

@DrGeof all my apps were downloaded automatically, but some of the settings need changing, and authorising my banking apps was fun...

I’ve finally been hit by the UK-wide medication shortages exacerbated by Brexit. My pharmacist can’t get my antipsychotic. The GP surgery blithely suggests that I just switch to another drug until he can. That is… really not how psychotropic meds work. I’ve got the community mental health team receptionist running round trying to get a prescription for this drug from my psychiatrist to be filled at the hospital pharmacy - IF they have it. Stress!

Er.. Er.. Please sir. What do you mean next year? That's authoritative?
