Tourettes, Autism, Astronomy, Nature, Cricket and Running. Rubbish at all of them.
- A blog post about the lovely aconite display #nature #writing #photography #wildflowers creamcrackerednature.blogspot.com/2026/02/hope...
- It's a grim grey day, the sun seemingly didn't bother rising. So let's have some colour, unfiltered, from the cemetery wildflowers #nature #wildflowers #photography
- The aconite in the friary gardens are now at their best! I made sure I took a look today before my run. #nature #wildflowers #photography #aconite
- Hello to new viewers and followers after your lovely response to my lunar halo photo. I've got a modest little astro master 114 telescope, through which I took these lunar photos with my pixel 6a. One shows the bay of rainbows, the other has crater Tycho near centre. #nature #photography #moon
- Signs of spring - tiny red hazel flowers are appearing by the catkins. #nature #wildflowers #photography
- Observing report from last night #astronomy
- So here's my attempts to take lunar photos through the eyepiece of my astro master 114. Think we have Copernicus and Clavius here #nature #astronomy #photography #astrophotography
- After the storm, another big lunar halo for you. Going to be a cold one. #nature #moon #astronomy #photography #astrophotography
- Snowdrops in living colour in the town cemetery ! #nature #wildflowers #photography #spring #snowdrops #winterwatch
- The window on the world reveals nothing but rain #photography
- As a Roman historian I felt it was necessary to watch "Caligula - The Ultimate Cut" for "research" purposes. Actually it's one of the most unerotic films I've ever seen. The continual flaccid (in every sense) sexuality is very tedious. Malcolm McDowell is insanely riveting though #movies
- My first little astronomy blog about my dreaded Astromaster 114 EQ, and the objects I've seen. #writing #astronomy #nature #photography #stars creamcrackerednature.blogspot.com/2026/01/a-ne...
- The sentinel crane is spectacular on a misty night #photography
- Opened an observing diary for my dreaded astro master 114 EQ! #astronomy
- Sunshine after the rain on the increasing number of friary gardens aconite #nature #wildflowers #photography
- Tonight I found the double star gamma andromedae, golden yellow and pale duck egg blue, and also Perseus double cluster which needs a wider field than at 50x. #astronomy
- Mahonia in the "stop the chop" library nature reserve, with the goldfinch mural in the background. I love this space. In full bloom it is stunning. #nature #wildflowers #art #photography
- Was watching this chunky squirrel wash it's face in between fighting another furry face #nature #photography #squirrel
- A clever cartoon crow, hanging around the smoking sheds at work waiting for the inevitable dropped food. This one spent five minutes yaaaarking away at nothing in particular #nature #birds #crow #photography

- More astronomy, dipped on all the open clusters I was looking for, but did get messier 37 in Auriga! Practice, practice . . #astronomy
- So the dreaded astro master 114 EQ was used again tonight. Managed to see Orion nebula and pleiades . But my eye really hated me after half an hour! #astronomy
- Time to wash, or drown, my noble steed, of all the grit and salt from the past freeze week #cycling
- No astronomy today, as the freeze has turned to rain, wreathing the aconite robes in raindrops. #nature #wildflowers #photography
- New gadget. I'd forgotten how difficult it actually is! #astronomy
- I do love wearing fleeces, although they don't really go with my usual middle aged ex member of sonic youth style vibes #winter
- A robin skulking in the hazel so I couldn't get a good photo. Not that you can really get good bird photos with a pixel 6a, but you get my drift. #nature #photography #robin
