Watched: American Beauty, 1999 - ★★★★★ 🎥

Mary on the Green
I’d say the bright statue speaks
In true memory

Mary Wollstonecraft finally honoured with statue after 200 years. 🔗

It shows a silvery naked everywoman figure emerging free and defiantly from a swirling mingle of female forms and, thanks to a 10-year slog of fundraising, is the world’s only memorial sculpture to a woman known as the “mother of feminism”

Elderly pathways
Straight lines through an empty town
Lost destinations

Force me to select
One highlight of the autumn -
Abundance of squash

Trying to bind us
Ivy creeps slowly over
The cracks in our walls

Earlier fears were well founded. Difficult to get above 250°C with the wood we had available. Tried a couple of wood fired pizzas but now switched to gas for higher temperatures. 🍕

Trying our pizza oven with its wood burner for the first time. It’s brilliant when gas fired but I’m not convinced by the size of the wood burner. We’ll see… 🍕

To inflate one’s worth
Beyond the reality -
Mistake of many

Beginning of day
Puzzling over breakfast tea
Wondering what next?

✏️ #mbnov

Green changed to amber
Pine needles are covering
Red tiles on the stoop

✏️ #mbnov

Near neighbours entwine
Branches and tendrils twisted
Broken in the fall

✏️ #mbnov

A fake persona
Wane into obscurity
Astonish me now

✏️ #mbnov

Concentrate on sleep
Losing thoughts and ideas
Mislaid in the mist
