I saw this film last night. Unsettling & thought provoking.

On this #MSFriday I've totally ignored advice to rest. I was up early painting my new pottery studio & I even fitted in a quick swim!
I may regret this tomorrow....

Just had an eagle fly over our garden in Oakdale. Heard the seagulls making a racket while I was hanging up the washing, looked up & there he was! Circled for a while, gradually heading off eastwards

Winter sun over Poole Harbour & a very fuzzy shot of an eagle.
Lovely cold walk on the Cordite way.

You don't have to go far for a holiday when you live in Dorset. Spending a week in the Purbecks, all of 40min away....

I enjoy Boatman’s puzzles - not very good at them tho!
boatmancryptics.co.uk Boatman Cryptics @boatmancryptics.co.uk · Nov 14
It's the Seasonal Reposting Competition! Repost this over the weekend, and on Sunday one lucky person will win a signed copy of one of my books. For you or the #crossword addict in your life: 50 fiendish @theguardian.com #puzzles and all the stories behind them:
boatmancryptics.co.uk/crossword-bo...
Boatman - the first 50 reportedly makes a great present or holiday read, exemplified by this image of the book opened to show the story behind the Shipping Forecast puzzle, on display on Brighton beach. Reviewing Boatman - the first 50, Alan Connor (The Guardian's crossword editor and the brains behind many of BBC2’s quiz programs) says: "This is one to savour. Boatman's puzzles are witty and ingenious. It is an extraordinary pleasure to read how his unique mind works. The first 50 is a book I never knew I needed in my life. Gift it to yourself and to the word-lovers in yours". Hugh Stephenson (Alan’s predecessor at The Guardian) says: "This is a unique book of crosswords" and Henry Morris: "a Boatman crossword is like a theme park. Each daunting line is a rollercoaster ... He scares you witless. But you can't wait to do it all over again". Boatman - the second 50 contains another 50 puzzles from The Guardian, with five bonus puzzles previously only available online and including puzzles, solutions and the ideas and stories behind them, exemplified by this image of the book opened to show one of the stories, which is accompanied by a picture of a large cow. Reviewing Boatman - the second 50, Gyles Brandreth says: "If you want a fiendish crossword, you want the best - which means you want Boatman, because he is the best" and Brian Bilston: "Cracking crosswords - each puzzle a delightful daily workout for the brain and a welcome tonic for the soul".

In pottery news I've been having fun making these Xmas trees! The colours will be much brighter once fired & they'll have tea lights inside

This clip from @theMSguide.com touched a nerve this morning. My neuro can seem dismissive of symptoms like fatigue & cog fog. I know I do pretty well for an MSer but there’s so much he doesn’t see. I get a different attitude from the MS nurses fortunately.

It’s #MSFriday & I’m reminded that MS is all about enjoying the good days & accepting the rubbish ones.
Life has to be taking it as comes & building in rest & recovery time.

Enjoying playing with paper slip transfer on my latest pots. Will probably go for a satin transparent glaze rather than a glossy one

Great to take part in the Poole and East Dorset Art society exhibition.
They had very little 3D stuff so I offered to fill the empty display cabinets with my pottery 🙂

I jumped in & bought myself a cheap pottery wheel which actually doesn't do a bad job!
Playing with mugs & handles....

Very happy to get back to pottery classes this week.
Straight back on the wheel & a new technique to try - double walled pots!

🧪 Science on Bluesky

A new study of 2.6m posts finds research gets far more likes, reposts, and thoughtful replies on @bsky.app than on X.

Scholars call it a 'purer' space for discussion.

Distant slightly fuzzy osprey shots from Lytchett Bay the other day. At least 4 of them putting on a great display.
A lot of them migrating south through Poole Harbour at the moment so we’ll be heading out later to catch some more

For #MSFriday this week, my experience of #MS & anti-virals:

I tested +ve earlier this week & was prescribed paxlovid, but none to be found anywhere. Same story with the only alternative, molnupiravir🤷🏻‍♀️

Worrying situation for MS patients but luckily my symptoms haven’t been bad & I’m on the mend 🙂
