Spring officially arrives on Friday and our garden is almost ready.
Daffodils, primroses and fritillary out today and a beautiful sunny day with a warm breeze to explore it.

@crisps@mastodon.social I used to read Maupassant short stories as a teenager. I loved them. Never tried a novel though.
Asimov is a great favourite of mine. Have you read any of his short stories? Definitely recommend them.

This week I have shortened trousers for my brother. About to shorten some for me. I have a granny square crochet in progress to make a hat and a knitted black v neck jumper waiting to be finished. Too hot to do either. I have some material ready to make a skirt (simple gathers) and matching loose blouse. No pattern needed. Been waiting for some nice weather to wear it. About to alter a dress for my daughter. Just Finishing altering a linen shirt to a short unlined jacket with cotton lace inside hem sleeve edges and collar. Added patch pockets.
( I am retired)

@GetCarter@mastodonapp.uk we had a trip from Liverpool to Llandudno on her. Must have been 50 years ago. Great fun. Good to see she’s still going.

@crisps@mastodon.social try Nightfall by Asimov. One of his best short stories. (perhaps one of THE best sf short stories)

I just signed a petition to stop the massive rollout of facial recognition surveillance in the UK. The Government and shops are starting to scan us without clear laws in place, effectively turning our faces into barcodes. It feels really invasive. Can you take 30 seconds to sign it too? https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/stop-scanning-us-all-with-facial-recognition?source=web_share_api&utm_campaign=blast146828&utm_medium=socialshare&utm_source=web_share_api&share=8dd1cc26-a71b-44e7-bf7c-15f6cd1757a7

@dbellingradt we once passed a lorry (as quickly as we could)that was carrying a crucible of molten aluminium along a motorway. Thought that was as scary as it gets. A lorry of anti matter beats that!

@RavynWitch@kind.social printers always seem to know if something is urgent as well Mine screwed up the paper(already installed and functioning earlier) took me half an hour to un jam it! I have 2 computers attached and it takes turns ignoring one or the other.

@taoish@mastodonapp.uk @notifica23@mstdn.social go to the 3 dots on bottom left. Block should be an option. I would go for the report option though.
