First day I’ve seen the house martins back playing between the terraces so I’ve downloaded this for my journey this evening
Want to get better at logging the films I’m watching and thinking of connecting Letterboxd to micro.blog. Curious what workflow others use for this 🍿🎥
Currently reading: A Thousand Moons by Sebastian Barry 📚
Back to fiction today with one of my favourite authors.
The more I read of Spring Cannot Be Cancelled: David Hockney in Normandy, the more I want to spend my time just looking at the trees in the park outside my back door 📚
Found the flaw in my plan to buy no new books this year… my wife is still buying books. Four she’s finished recently added to my to read pile today 🤷🏼
Sunny morning run before the rest of the world gets up = a good start to a long weekend
Signed up for my first Good Gym sessions today. In the next few weeks I’ll be going on a group run and a litter pick. Looking forward to helping in the community, meeting new people and improving fitness along the way
I do not enjoy getting up early however I am looking forward to an early start for Dawn Chorus Day on May 1
New favourite wordle spin-off framed.wtf 🎬🎥🍿
Running through a field of cows in the middle of the city still feels like a novelty
For me Bank Holidays are about baking and beer. Bonus points this weekend for baking with beer. Spiced stout hot cross buns on the menu today 😋
For a fleeting moment this afternoon the sun reflecting off the crackle glaze on this little pot made a beautiful pattern that reminded me of marbling
I have a long-standing desire to “be more creative” and I think I’ve always equated that to doing more drawing, printing, photography etc. Today I realised the hour or so that I spend cooking every day is creative time. Seems so obvious now, I’m unsure how I didn’t see it before
Finished reading: Great Circle by Maggie Shipstead 📚
Enjoyed this adventure yarn and getting to know Marian Graves. Wasn’t sure about the need for the modern plot, but it made itself known in the end.
In my accountability group this morning I appreciated being asked what I am looking forward to this week as well as what I need to get done
Super excited - just bought tickets to see my first Red Roses match live. Taking my Dad back to Welford Road where we used to spend every Saturday hanging out and watching rugby when I was a kid.
Just updated my /now page ekcragg.co.uk/now/
Finished reading: Do Pause by Robert Poynton 📚
This book has prompted so many questions for me to explore around how I create and use pauses in my life and work. Highly recommend.
Watching rugby with my wife. “I like their bonnets” she says 🤣
One of my favourite things to do is a solo trip to the cinema. It felt good to be back there yesterday after too long.
I watched Nightmare Alley which is definitely a film of two halves.
