Live in Dundee. Love my country, Scotland. Life is too short for bad coffee. Don't bother trying to cajole me in any direction whatsoever: I post what I like and block accounts rather than suffer foolish &/or offensive twaddle. Bawbags not welcome.

Zephaniah 3:14-20 is one of the most hopeful & gladdening parts of the Holy Bible:

"Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem. The Lord hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the Lord, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more. In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not: and to Zion, Let not thine hands be slack. The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing. I will gather them that are sorrowful for the solemn assembly, who are of thee, to whom the reproach of it was a burden. Behold, at that time I will undo all that afflict thee: and I will save her that halteth, and gather her that was driven out; and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame. At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, saith the Lord."

Floral scene from this afternoon, Broughty Ferry, Scotland

Foreground: flower meadow. Figure in pink shorts, back to camera, upper right on image. Beach and see in near distance. Tentsmuir promontory and forest beyond that, framing the sky (blue + puffy clouds). Scottish scene on North Sea coast, county of Angus.

Not just some "Scottish editions", but also on front page of at least one Scotland-only newspaper too....

Random people here asking me gormless questions about England / Northern Ireland geography. Not sure why. Supposedly there are no such things as stupid questions. However, I am not so sure that's actually true. -> @archenal.com -> @gendergoblinhelen.bsky.social sky.social
