@szilviavirag @bookstodon Highlights for me have been the Planetfall series by Emma Newman, Mick Herron’s Slow Horses books, and Sea of Tranquility by Emily St John Mandel.
I’ll chuck in two of my all-time favourites, which I re-read: The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern and Susanna Clarke’s Piranesi

Of course the neighbour decides to power wash his decking on one of the hottest days of year, when all the windows in my house are open, so all I can hear is the sound of the generator or whatever it runs on.

@sheepnik They’re harvesting round here, so we get noise with the added benefit of dust.

@sheepnik So much rural tranquility

@llamasoft_ox @sheepnik They’re getting the barley in at the moment, but as some that goes to make whisky, I’m OK with the rumble of distant combining.

has been a good day. There was blue sky and sunshine, but it wasn’t too hot, and for once I was wearing exactly the right clothes for the weather. We had a lovely lunch and a wander around the walled garden at Floors Castle. Here’s a sunflower to celebrate.

The summit cairn on Lord’s Seat. I say cairn, it’s more a heap of stones really.

Bit of a challenge for today’s . Can you spot it?

I walked a figure of eight route today, which meant that I passed through my favourite gate twice (everyone has a favourite gate, yes?) The weather brightened up considerably between passages.
I have many photos of this gate, and no two are the same. My dream is to incorporate a sheep, but I’ve not managed it yet.

Colour photograph of a wooden five bar gate, with a wooden fence to the right, and a post and wire fence to the left. There is tufty, rough moorland grass in front, with rounded hills stretching into the distance behind. The sky is blue, and the sun is shining, and there are many puffy white clouds.

@jorijn Isn’t it stunning? My reward for a sharpish climb!

To find your perfect Predator movie, just take the name of the first kids show you remember and add "vs Predator" to the end.

"Rainbow vs Predator"

Not sure what I did to offend the sheep front left, but she looks very put out

@llamasoft_ox Very likely! I’m not sure about the etiquette of giving biscuits to other people’s sheep.

@llamasoft_ox sounds like a plan.

I went to visit a friend and she presented me with a vanilla slice so enormous that I couldn’t get it all in focus

Lookouts. I think they’ve spotted me.

@Stoat thanks for the prompt, I’ve no idea how I forgot!

thebaywindowgirl,
@thebaywindowgirl@toot.community avatar

@Stoat I think I was just over-excited to share my sheep.

@Stoat YES!
