13k run today, in bits & pieces. The many ups & downs did take it out of me, and due to the change in weather I'd sore joints. Bumped into a pal at the end, with her uke orchestra, which cheered me up to no end.

I bet these Little Britainers voted for Brexit. And what a joy that has been! So let them: start with cutting off their gas, electricity and water. As a sovereign nation they can make their own, or they can negotiate with surrounding countries to buy in.
Dan Sohege@danielsohege.bsky.social · 4w agoOh please please let them. The banter heuristic of them having to apply for visas to leave their village alone would be worth it.
Revisiting a draft of a Selkie story... I'd already redrafted it end of last year, but it seems that with trimming the fat I also took off a goodly portion of meat. The new draft will get the nice juicy bits back in.
Honestly, this is just brilliant - what a fabulous woman! 💪

I hate that it's needed, but I'm here for the SB244 Compliance Crew. Not all heroes wear capes!
The next installment of ' #HarryPrice & the #PulboroughTorc'. Whether he made the torc, had it made - or planted a real one - the overwhelming evidence that Harry Price was involved is becoming impossible to ignore. Enjoy! 😊 #Archaeology #Torcs #Pulborough 🏺 bigbookoftorcs.com/2026/08/10/i...

Brandy had a long snuggle this evening though, as I did some more research into ballads.
This is a cat who didn't like it this afternoon when I put on my boots. (I wasn't away for too long!)
Impulse purchase - because it wasn't deer, and I like historical printed matter...

Lovely day had! This morning/afternoon the Fleadh, and then in the evening Sojourners Open Mic, which was really a balm for the soul. I did my Old Town song and it hit a nerve with several people. (I do need to record it!)
So many things to do I should really be doing, but instead I find myself contemplating a folk song. I'll make notes to get it off my brain, I guess. Photos from last night, at the Lagan.

Penny Not Dreadful! Sometimes the adverts in old (1902 in this case) magazines are the best!
Oh, here now, look! It's a really nice location too, and right in front of a bookshop! @jozebwrites.bsky.social See you in a few weeks!
Very hot & humid - like stepping into an oven. That was a very reluctant 5k run earlier...
