  • I think I may have inadvertently snapped a picture of the beginning of the #AnnapolisCounty #LongLakeWildfire on Wednesday afternoon.at 5:17pm. I had been to Hampton Beach and liked the view of the field. #NS #NovaScotia #wildfire

    View across fields - in the distance, smoke rises from the ground - looked like clouds

  • Lovely evening with a friend – eating takout and lots of chatting at his lakeside off-grid camp site.
    #NovaScotia #Lake #NS #AnnapolisValley

    Still lake with rocks poking out from the lake. Trees either side and on the far shore. Trees on the far shore reflected in the water. Blue sky above the lake and no clouds.

  • Lunch in my lovely Tiffin Tins (or dabba). Once watched an amazing documentary about the Dabbawalas and the amazing network they service.

    Two steel containers and a lid next to a keyboard on a desk. One container of cous cous and another of salad.

  • “It has been going for 70 years, I think we can afford to spend three episodes talking about Ramadan” paraphrasing Keri Davies on #TheArchers #Podcast Great episode with Souad Faress.

  • Caught up with last weeks #TheArchers podcast about LGB characters. It’s taken a while for the longest running soap to get with the times.

  • In the city for work the last couple of days. Had a lovely 5km walk this morning around Shubie Park with a colleague. #NovaScotia #DartmouthNS

    Lock in Shubie Park. You can see water, green trees either side and a lock gate.

  • Had a wonderful weekend. The highlight was cheering on my husband at the finish line of the Ulnooweg 10km #HappyPost

    Male runner crossing the finish line of a race - people line the route in the background.

  • Scum!
