- A catch-up on my nature diary. Feels odd to be typing August in November but good to revisit what you were thinking and feeling at the time. In this aritcle I also quote from Pamela Gormally's wonderful collection, which she was kind enough to give me as a gift. burnj.substack.com/p/the-univer...

- I spend time with nature & discuss, a little more each time how health is impacting each of my days, how connecting with nature is something I can do. I worry my articles are dull. They are not about epic journeys, or achieving anything huge. burnj.substack.com/p/the-univer...
