Why is it when there's good astro viewing or aurora, I'm too shattered to head out. .

Alternatively, for £1 you can borrow a shopping trolley. Stick that in your profits, Wheelshare!.

NHS hospitals are now charging patients £2/hr just to sit in a wheelchair in A+E. These are some of the sickest patients, who often have to wait hours to be seen. The NHS is crumbling, and is being eaten away by constant privatisation. When will @wesstreeting act?

I've just watched this from Paul, & it encapsulates *perfectly* the feeling I get when going out to do nightscape astrophotography; the joy, the calm, the privilege of getting to experience beautiful skies such as these. Please watch it & marvel at the brilliance of Paul's work!.

1 week of dog walks later, and I've finished, though I think I may just go back to the beginning and listen to it again (and again and again). A book which I would summarise in one word - kindness. Thanks @oliverburkeman.

Really enjoyed coming to this event, and eager to get @oliverburkeman's new book into my ears. His last book (Four Thousand Weeks) made the dreary, rain-soaked September dog walks much more interesting, and I'm sure Meditations for Mortals will do the same!.

So great to talk to @oliverburkeman about his amazing new book ‘Meditations for Mortals’ @CityScreenYork.It certainly delivers on its opening line:.‘This is a book about how the world opens up once you realise you’re never going to sort your life out’. Thank you @YorkWaterstones

Is this a wrong-angled dog, or a right-angled dog?

Met a cute little jumping spider last night, and spent an age fighting with a broken lens to get some focused shots of it. Only about 3 or 4mm long, not sure what species it is? Salticus scenicus, or Anasaitis Milesae @BritishSpiders?
