My Corner of The Internet

Things To Make Me Smile (and a few things that annoy me)

Social Media

  • Decisions

    This is just a small follow up from the post on the 25th of Jan – It’s time to nuke my X/Twitter accounts – I’ve two – one where I’m me and one where I’m not me and therefore a little bit more me. Yes I know that makes no sense whatsoever!  So a quick… Read more

  • Moving Over

    The past evening or two I’ve been going through the list of folk I follow on X and looking to see if they have made the jump to BlueSky. Some have and some haven’t, some even got skipped, and that it possibly the part that made me happy. Looking at the list and the batches of… Read more

  • Rainy Days

    This is probably a post that should be over on the blog with the photos, but I decided that this was the place I wanted it to be. I love nothing more than a rainy day.  It’s even better if I’m sitting inside – a cup of tea in hand, cosy socks and slippers –… Read more

  • Consolidation

    The internet feels as if it is changing again.  There’s things I miss about the (my) early days – I miss websites, I miss LiveJournal – when your friends page was just your friends posts, in the order they are published.  Facebook is still just a small amount of people reposting other peoples posts –… Read more

  • A grand cup of tea

  • Stations of the Cross 1-7(via Rev. Richard Coles)

    It is that time of year again when the lovely Reverend tweets his Stations of the Cross.  I have always been stunned by his choice of photos to illustrate the message. First Station: Pilate condemns Jesus to die #StationsOfTheCross pic.twitter.com/Qtj5rKP3UQ — Richard Coles (@RevRichardColes) April 10, 2020 Stations of the Cross. Second Station: Jesus accepts… Read more

  • A Little Light Reading

    There have been many times, when I was in work, that I wished I could just spend the afternoon reading my book.  It seems the reading bug has bitten again – this should been seen in a celebratory light however as I’m working from home at the moment it means falling for temptation is all… Read more

  • Ethel & Ernest

    I love the work of Raymond Briggs!  So it is with great joy and glee to read on the Ethel & Ernest blog that there is a trailer for the up and coming film by Lupus films.  October 28th is now in the diary and I can’t wait!!!!   (Trailer via Flickeringmyth) Read more

  • 4 on Instagram

    Every Saturday morning I go through my instagram feed for the week, this is no small endeavour!  Here is a selection of 4 – I love the way they dress their photos and their lighting is exquisite, they make me smile 🙂 @localmilk @silverpebble @zynp @permillion44     Personal blogs of the ladies above: Zynp365… Read more
