Hoping I'll get the hang of it one day. Constantly curious.

FFS Seen this morning. I suppose these idiots would have argued that they weren't on moorland or near agricultural land, but the large area of tinder-dry grass goes right up to housing. 😡

Foreground, very dry grassy area. Background, trees and bushes. At bottom, left are the remains of a small fire.

Close-up of the same remains of fire showing a partly burnt tin of lighter fluid at its heart.

A painting in the washbasin area of a Spanish café loo the other day (excuse the reflections from the lights).

Two hands, in the style of the Sistine Chapel, exchanging a loo roll.

My issue is, where is Hampshire? To my mind, the South East ends at West Sussex and the South West starts at Dorset.

Sending you all a cool, refreshing breeze from Galicia.

Are there still people in the UK saying "If this is Global Warming, bring it on!" or is the reality starting to dawn? Anyway, here's our forecast on the Atlantic coast of Spain, not far from the border with Portugal. Stay cool everyone.

Screenshot of a weather forecast for the hours 11.00 until 18.00. Lowest temperature is 22º and highest is 23º. There is cloud, in varying amounts, each hour. Chance of rain varies between 5% and 7%.

My lovely boots gave out on me. I administered first aid in order to get back to the hotel but the plasters didn't make it all the way and I walked through reception like Dustin Hoffman in his diving gear in The Graduate.

Close up of feet in brown, lace-up boots. The soles of each boot are coming loose. The left one is being held together with two sticking plasters.

The same boots hanging from a wooden window shutter. The soles are hanging off the boots. One quite alarmingly.

I kid you not. Complete surprise as just a standard room. I felt that I should have made a speech or belted out 🎶 Don't Cry For Me Argentina!

Interior of a hotel room showing desk and TV on the right. To the left are five steps up to a french window through which can be seen the metal railings of the balcony.

Looking along the balcony and stone wall of the building at the left side. From the middle of the photo onwards the trees and grass in front of the hotel gives way to a panoramic view across the town to mountains in the far distance.

We had a room with a balcony at the previous hotel. Correction: we had THE room with a balcony.

Impressive entrance to hotel in a former monastery. Stone steps leading up to a huge door with columns either side supporting a balcony with metal surround.

Earlier in the week we were in Cangas del Narcea, Spain. Walking across this suspension bridge was an interesting experience. I intended taking a photo halfway along but the wobbly motion was very disconcerting so I had to just keep going until I got to solid ground.

A metal suspension bridge high over a road bridge. There are apartment blocks at the far end of the bridges.

Looking along the length of the same suspension bridge were you get on to it. It is a narrow footbridge, just wide enough for two people.

Looking back having crossed the bridge. The suspension bridge is at the top left of the photo, beneath is an old, stone bridge and a modern road bridge.

Spent most of the afternoon in the air-conditioned hotel room as it was too hot and sunny to go out. Weather now...

I'm being a bit unfair saying #badbathroom as it's a lovely bathroom in a lovely hotel. But, why did they feel the need to put a light switch IN the shower!?! (There was a perfectly good light switch outside the bathroom door where you'd expect it to be) 🤷‍♀️ #holidayfun

Hotel bathroom showing the tap end of a bath with shower above, glass shower screen and bottles of shampoo etc. In bottom left corner is a grab rail. Mid way between shower head and grab rail is a light switch.

Move cancelled. Nice #alfresco lunch at the #bistroset . I'm now back inside though, as it's too bloomin' hot! #TheArchers

Two metal chairs with cushions at a small, round metal table in the shade of a large garden umbrella. There are two plates of food, a glass of red wine and a glass of pastis on the table.

Badly drawn cricket ball with horns and bulls nose-ring, allegedly drawn by a child.

I've just had this reply from 'Moob'. It implies that I'm a Moob user. I have no idea what this is. Has anyone else come across this? #TheArchers

Screenshot of one of my Bluesky posts followed by a reply from Moob asking "do Moob users often share memories of actors diverse careers and roles like this?"

Hi Bluesky Hive Mind. My local authority is about to start Food Waste collection. Their guidance mentions Tea Bags & Coffee GROUNDS, but is it okay to chuck in the whole filled coffee filter of do I empty the grounds into it and put the filter paper in the refuse?

Spring is on the way. Seen today in Hampshire.

Lottie von Fuchshausen@lottievonfuchshaus· Feb 21

Oh!

Screenshot from Google maps of a pub called Spice Island Inn (Portsmouth). There are hanging baskets of flowers all around the pub and some picnic tables with closed umbrellas. The words 'Brickwoods Brilliant Ales' are written in tiles multiple times in a banner all around the building and the pub's former name The Union Tavern is on a panel between 2 windows on the first floor.

As it was a nice, sunny day we went down to Lee-on-the-Solent. We had a wander around the side roads and came across the back of the Hovercraft Museum. Later I had an ice-cream on the sea front, which I wasn't expecting to do in February! #hovercraft #Hampshire

Foreground: yellow and white hovercraft. Middle: small red and white former Isle of Wight hovercraft. Distance: large red, white and blue former cross channel hovercraft. To the left, part of a large industrial building with the word 'Craft' in large red capital letters.

It looks like Lillian has been spending at Underwoods again. #TheArchers

A screenshot of a product review: "A customer said: Bar Cart Beautifully Rings the Bell. Bought two of these carts, yes two. One in home library is for scotch and whisky and a large vintage glassware collection. Second is for gin and frolics! Carts are easy to assemble, well made and the have a simply beautiful aesthetic. They fit into mid-century modern or contemporary. And we did one in walnut and one white with natural wood. These are a super.

Spotted in that London when the Tour de France came to town in 2014. #TheArchers

Two branded 'Jolly Hog' transit vans with some gentleman from the Met at the rear, by a tree. Genuine photo.

🎶 On the 12th day of Closure my true love sent to me...

A motorway matrix sign announcing "M27 J11 - J9 12 day closure 24 Dec- 4 Jan". There are various vehicles on the motorway and other blue motorway signs by the road and on a gantry in the distance.

A nice interview with David & William Troughton in the Radio Times. (There are no spoilers) #TheArchers

A page of a magazine with a question and answer interview with two male actors who are stood on the right wearing festive antlers. A small reindeer wearing a scarf is next to them.

Steve!

A screenshot from the BBC website showing a man in shirt and tie with his jacket over his shoulder and a woman in flowery dress and wide-brimmed hat. They are portraying the characters of Paul Temple and Steve from the Francis Durbridge books.

OH has just said Advent calendars are nice pictures that gradually get ruined 🙄. Anyhoo, today's window has revealed what he described as "Dead turkey on a platter." I now keep thinking of this to the tune of The Holly and The Ivy!

An Advent calendar of a Quentin Blake illustration of a tall snowman built by a group of adults and children. Robins and parrots help out. A dog in scarf and wellingtons is balancing presents on his nose in the bottom left-hand corner. Half the windows have been opened revealing various Christmas related things.

A close-up of one of the windows showing a traditional roast turkey on a large plate surrounded by some greenery.

It's the 12th of December, so I'm halfway through the @mooseallain.bsky.social colouring Advent Calendar. A great excuse to switch off for a few minutes each day with the words "Those Bigfoot aren't gonna colour themselves in!"

WorldofMoose.com designed Advent calendar depicting 24 Bigfoot characters, each with a present. There are fir trees around the border and random stars and shapes throughout. All the trees and half the Bigfoots have been coloured in.

PLJ? #TheArchers

A 1970s advert for PLJ drink which was sold as a slimming aid. There are two bottles at the bottom of the picture, surrounded by lemons and lemon blossom. A young woman in green flares and yellow tank-top is on the left-hand side. A cameo of the same woman is at the top right-hand corner with some more lemons.

There's a hovercraft museum at Lee-on-the-Solent, Hampshire.
