Instructions for an Anxiety-Reducing Interview with Ourselves: - Wait until the noise of the day has subsided. Find a quiet room. Probably lie in bed - or in the bath.

Banded snail shells…. Not only are these empty shells incredibly beautiful, but they also happen to be used as nests by one of my favourite solitary bees - the Red-tailed Mason bee (Osmia bicolor). I live in hope that I might one day find this bee in Cornwall.

The library is dangerous –
Don’t go in. If you do

You know what will happen.
It’s like a pet store or a bakery –

Every single time you’ll come out of there
Holding something in your arms.
