pink nudibranch...

Such exquisite beauty in the waters of Port Phillip Bay...
Sea slugs really need a more creative, artistic name tag...
They are skilful+can turn compounds from food sources into chemical defences, so they don’t need a shell when they are adults.https://t.co/PfMwIoFB10 https://t.co/5asQS8aHWd

poetry creeping...

Can you think of a poem that creeps into your mind on a regular basis, one that you love and won't leave you?

Oh and ‘The Owl and The Pussycat’ Edward Lear....and that runcible spoon!

In the room the women come and go
Talking of Michelangelo.

Kubla Khan, Samuel Taylor Coleridge

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.

baling twine...

Creative recycling...
Murray Blyth of Geraldton, WA, and his wife Glenda ask local farmers for their old baling twine. Murray then weaves hats, bags + bowls + more.
A hat takes him about 12 hours, using 12 metres of seven-strand plait per hat!https://t.co/jqcaGklWzL pic.twitter.com/rpiGxgBWpQ

Apparently, this sign is to be found at Bookends of Fowey, Cornwall

big winds...

We've had rain and we've had the big winds...
Again I say, never have I known so much wind any season on my Mornington Peninsula...
Again I ask, why this deluge of winds... https://t.co/gWs2uTBfYs pic.twitter.com/OgT8WTOPba

But there was a magnificent array of reflections right at our feet... https://t.co/W9F5ri5xXM

back at school adventures...

PASSING THOUGHT: Couldn't access emails in holidays+couldn't at school. Outage for 2 weeks stuffed emails (new building project). Must help teacher given History (she's never taught it) but too many meetings. Another appointment tomorrow (new building outage). I can only 🤣😠
