This letter in today’s Times really does deserve a read.

Wildlife conservationist Matt Poole has the coolest job in the world. He is returning baby owls to their artificial burrow. I think it’s time to reconsider my career. x.com/CURIOSITSClENC…

Thread: 1/. As the death toll rises to 41 today, four women you should know who were deliberately and unlawfully killed in Iran when protesting gender apartheid and the killing of #Masha_Amini: Hadis Najafi, aged 20, shot six times when security forces opened fire on her.

The brave women & girls of Afghanistan come out to protest today inside a university to condemn yesterdays terrorist attack in west Kabul (Hazara area) that killed at least 40 students. “Education is our right” Don’t turn a blind eye to their suffering.

Christmas shows are coming up soon! My next show will be at RHS Garden Wisley with Craft In Focus 9-13 Nov.

Here I go again! Media siding with the supermarkets. All farmers want is a fair price, they’ve already upped the price for you as the consumer why can’t it filter down to us so we can cover costs?? #payfarmersfair

It’s that time of year again in the workshop -tidy up time! This includes all the metal offcuts which are sorted in to containers in order of size. I use all my off-cuts ( have you seen the price of steel recently!😮) &it makes it easier when things are sorted this way.

Here at the @britishhardwoods open day till 3pm. Finished my new yew table just in time. Have to say I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out 😊 @craftinfocus Patrick Turk #bigblackhousedesign #blacksmith #metal #wood #yew #table #handmade #craft

Meet Jane and Simon, the founders of Dalefoot. They sometimes shy away from the term sustainability as it seems to have lost its strength in recent years. To them, sustainability is environmental, social and economic, and this is central to what we do at Dalefoot 💚 #peatfree

This still makes me laugh 😂

We will have to sadly give up our delivery address in Enfield where’s we receive a high volume of essentials for the charity & dogs and this also keeps our safe sanctuary address being withheld for safety reasons. With ULEZ expansion upon us we will be expected to pay the charge

My next show ….

Day 2 at Hampton Court. Come and see us on stand 283. I’m sharing a stand with Hayhoe Designs #handmade #britishcraft #hamptoncourtflowershow

I hate doing this, but I am desperate for sales, as currently a few hundred pounds short of being able to cover my bills this month. Please, if you’ve ever thought about buying from me, now would be a great time. Even if all you can do is retweet this, I’d be so grateful (1/2)
