Read: The Young Accomplice by Benjamin Wood ★★★★☆ 📚
Wonderful queasy tension. Siblings, out of Borstal in the early 1950s bring all sorts of baggage to farm training centre for young humane architects.
It is World Curlew Day
Likes World Curlew Day.
I did not know this, followed a link from the Caught by the river newsletter to Curlew Country. Both sites have activities and resources for schools. I wish I’d seen it earlier as it would have fitted nicely with Earth Day/John Muir day which we celebrated today in school.
@toddconaway @tdc Maybe we need an activity to write a 'to don't' list? #DS106
@nomadwarmachine @toddconaway @tdc #dailycreate #tdc4114 #ds106
This reminded my to restart my taDa.txt file today, an idea borrowed from @sheilmcn
TaDa.txt is file I try to add something to celebrate at the end of the working day. I had forgotten about it for a while, now restarted.
I’ve also got another one where I add one, very short, nature note per day. Managed to do every day this year so far.
Both happier places than a todo list;-)
A warm evening. Mallard chick on Bingham pond.
Read: Where My Heart Used to Beat by Sebastian Faulks ★★★☆☆
Enjoys this life told through wars, love & remembering.
At the far side of the forth & Clyde Canal. Quite often see foxes sleeping along the canal in the sun.
Read: A Line Made by Walking by Sara Baume ★★★★☆ 📚
Depressed young artist in the Irish countryside. Had me completely invested & worrying about the outcome throughout. Many short references to & descriptions of pieces of conceptual art are thought provoking.
Looking for a Replacement for Trails
I am on the search for a replacement app. One that shows were I am & records a gpx track for a walk. I want to simple AirDrop this track to my mac for geotagging photos and making maps.
I’ve used Trails app since 2009 & love it. Pay my sub every year with delight.
Recently it is crashing a bit. Today it is not on the App store & this note on the forum: App no longer available after update ios 16.3.1.
Suggestions most welcome.
