Good morning lovely people 💕 💕
Welcome to another freaky Friday.

Charity shop this morning, is about all I have planned for today. Possibly a bit of reading later on, and the obligatory crochet 🧶 😁
The motivation just isn't with me currently.

Sending massive love and hugs to you all

The rhythm & calm authority of the #ShippingForecast; for 100 years on the #BBC, it’s guided sailors & soothed listeners across the #BritishIsles. 🌧️🌊

My paintings #AttentionAllShipping & #SailingBy capture a little of that magic, the #poetry of weather, sea & sound.

Did you know? 100 years ago today, the @BBC broadcast the #ShippingForecast for the very first time, produced by the Met Office for @MCA_media.

More than just a lifesaver, it’s become a beloved part of Britain’s cultural identity - a thread 🧵1/3

Good morning lovely people 💕🌄
Yesterday was a total pants day, with no motivation whatsoever 😔

Mr DT is driving over to Glossop today to meet up with Ms DT, the newly weds have had their mail redirected to us before they move!
A couple of things have arrived that they need, hence the midway meet up!
They're planning to get lunch 🥰
I'm in the emporium this afternoon so will miss out, but hopefully it won't be long before they get their move date!
Sending massive love and hugs to you all 🥰

As someone who during two longer stays in the UK listened to the Shipping Forecast every morning for months at a time (by virtue of host family members needing it for their jobs), this is just full of memories and oddity.
