Honestly, one of the best things in the world is bumblebees going into snapdragons. Look at its fluffy little bum re-emerging!

May I present a magic one I found in Wells the other day?

A keyhole in a very old door in the side of wells cathedral. You can see some cloisters through the hole

I’d take a food that simply doesn’t look like I’m squeezing another cat’s brains onto the plate tbh

A sachet of cat food that looks like I’m squishing the meat inside a cat out onto a plate

See I’m just making meatball sandwiches this minute and took the decision to slice the bolls up, so is this really a meatball sandwich or is it something… other? A meatdisc sandwich?

The modern pylons also look.. a lot nicer! These are the ones we've got in Somerset bringing the juice up from Hinkley

the fancy new pylons that connect Hinkley Point to the grid. They're much lower than trad pylons, and remind me of wind turbines - white, smooth, and a couple of arms out to the sides shaped like a T

Mason's the living embodiment of this cartoon, isn't he?

A cartoon with a peasant saying "we should improve society somewhat" and a dickhead in a well saying "yet you participate in society. curious! I am very intelligent"

Full moon rising above axbridge in Somerset. Glastonbury tor is visible, more or less, on the horizon

I’ll admit it wasn’t this year but this was certainly surprising to find on a mendip hillside

Yaaaaasssss

Two sweaty men in a van, eating ice creams after a long day installing furniture in 33 degree heat

Bit of workshop catchup for next week’s install - it’s nice and cool in here. But there’s nothing like doing your mirror mitres to reveal your middle aged melting face

A man with a sagging face over a mirror. He looks old and shocked. That man is me.

A little bit of calm - this very bold Robin fledgling enjoyed me doing a bit of planting and stirring up insects. Hope he’s not TOO bold, there’s a few cats regularly in the garden.

Ok this is the photo I should’ve posted last night, not the blurry one. Blame post-ride pints. King John looking out over a dramatic sky and full moon in Axbridge town square

A wooden carving of king John on a Tudor timber frame building, with a mackerel cloudy sky just filtering over the full moon

Bash@bashthebox· Apr 30

Probably the best picture of king John and a full moon I’ve taken today

Always reminds me of the situation we’ve had over and over again with senior parliamentarians in the UK

The Minoans were into it too

A Minoan figurine of a snake goddess, which was found in a rubbish pit at Knossos, if I remember it right. Anyway, she’s got a snake in each hand and her baps out

Just in case, went out for a ride in the woods, had a quick pint with a pal and came home to loving wife and best cat friend

Late sunset on the mendips, looking towards the lights of Hinckley point. A tree is silhouetted against a red sky

Dirty martini with spicy olives. And a cocktail umbrella, because if the world’s going to be on fire I’m damn well having a cocktail umbrella.

Dirty martinis, one with a pink umbrella, one with a green. Both have two massive olives.

Saw these guys yesterday, they asked me if I knew famous author Tom Cox, and could I get them his autograph

Three goats stare lovingly at the photographer

I made us a new coffee table this week from old project leftovers and offcuts, and a knackered old plan chest. I rather like it. #woodworking

My local has a new pair of cats. Only got a pic of one but she’s lovely. Pints and purrs, offsetting the horrors #caturday

A grey tabby cat with a white chest and white socks. She sits with a funny wide leg stance, eyes alert to something to the left of the camera frame

Monkey was looking *fierce* today in the late afternoon sunshine. He’s not much of an outside during the day boy, so we have a bit of a play when he fancies some garden time with us.

A sequence of a tabby cat walking towards the camera asking a garden wall in the spring sunshine. There’s alpines flowering on the wall, and the low sun is shining from the left of the picture

QTP with a game that has a 10/10 soundtrack

The cover of the game Xenon 2 Megablast, which had an 8bit soundtrack made by Bomb da Bass and was just awesome

Kerning is SO important

A sign that reads, at first glance, ‘dick lovers computer specialist’ but bad kerning tells us that the first word was supposed to be ‘click’

Happiness is a flat cat. Just look at that little fluffy chin.

A grey tabby cat getting a chin scratch in front of a log stove. His silly head has gone all flat and he looks very satisfied with life

If you know where to look, there’s some hot, hot toad action out there at the moment

A daddy toad giving a mummy toad a very special hug

Bash@bashthebox· Mar 6

Anyway this is the correct answer

Bash@bashthebox· Mar 4

Absolute in cred ible place, all those period features! Did a double take though, one of the fireplaces looks really like one of mine (pretty sure mine’s not original, most be a Victorian or Edwardian addition)
