So a fox came into the field and took a chicken from right in front of us at dinner time last night.

Unfortunately we couldn't get to it in time. Our rooster tried, but he wasn't successful either.

So I've been listening to #Spotify most of the day while working. Instead of playing my liked songs, I've just let it play whatever.

This is the way! It's been banger after banger, and lots of great news tracks.

Been doing some work on the website to bring back post types on the site properly (something I haven't had since switching from Kirby).

I now have articles, links, notes and books, all on the homepage and filterable. Hopefully nothing is too messed up in the RSS feed! 😟

Dammit, my second print somehow went wrong. I think it's because I dont have the printer on the steadiest of surfaces. Will move and try again.
