Texan/Brit happy to be living in a sane country. If all else fails, send in the cats. Music cures all evils. It's best to be content, than to have to always be right.

I love Texas! At the San Antonio airport at stupid o'clock to fly to see my neice at Uni. Across the airport I spy.....a Hasidic Jew in a cowboy hat. Love it!

Sitting in the waiting room of a minor emergency center in Texas and 6 people are listening to their phones with NO headphones. Half in english and half in spanish. #hell

Got my new tattoo today. I love it! Just a little something to celebrate making it to my 60's (which wasn't always assured). ❤❤

Watching college football (American) and realized how much of my memory is taken up by arcane football facts. I need this info out of my head so I can remember the important stuff, like what I went into the kitchen for. 🤣

Oh lawd, started watching "Brothers" on Apple tv. Funny, funny, funny! First off, Texas through and through. Holland Taylor, chef's kiss. Woody and Matthew are such stoners. Barry Corbin reminds me of my grandfather. Plus all the gorgeous Texas scenery. Highly recommend.

The older I get, the more my inner 6 yr old comes out. I've taken to buying stickers and the door to under the stairs has become my sticker door. I love my newest, and most accurate, sticker.

Abel wants you to know he will only answer to Dolly Purrton for the forseeable future. He thanks you for your attention. #catsofbluesky #DollyPurrton

The wealth of being able to give to others. I do not know who wrote these words but they resonate. May your day be peaceful, my friends, and may you find joy in the simplest of things. 😊 #life #mindfulness #calm #peace

Only Hayes can get me to a festival in Texas in the heat of September. Going home to Tx from Sept-Jan. My first visit for Thanksgiving and xmas in 25 years. Ain't retirement grand?

This is Leslie. He was our local cross-dresser in Austin through the 80's and 90's. He rode around on a bike with just a thong and a prayer. Homeless by nature, the whole town took care of him with feeding and a place to stay when weather was bad. Keep Austin Weird was more than a slogan.

The era of capitalism ended in 2008. Whats happened since is a sort of as-yet unnamed looting undertaken by the ruling class. What's to come next is anyone's guess

The cats and I have retreated to the aircon. Watching Ride or Die with Hannah Waddington and Octavia Spencer, who is the funniest of the two. Pretty good, would recommend. Would not recommend this heat, though. If I wanted heat like this, I'd a stayed in Texas. Nasty!

Off to Texas in September and the cats are ready for me to send them some Willie Nelson catnip. No, seriously, it's catnip but it is primo catnip. It sends my two into a Willie frenzy. 🤣😻

This one has been my shadow since we got back from Liverpool. He does not like being left with his brother for a weekend. #catsofbluesky

Cheeky fucking water companies saying not to use your hosepipe but they don't fix leaks or invest in infastructure. But their shareholders make a fortune. And it seems the Waterwise woman is an idiot, not a scientist. Same amount of water that the dinosaurs had. Idoicy rules.

I love a buddleja. Bees and butterflìes flock to them. I have 6, 3 in the front and 3 in the back and they are magnets for all sorts of insects.

Saturday Kitchen is just excrutiating today. Ricky Wilson needs to eat something, way too skinny. They all look uncomfortable, the jokes are falling flat and even cheeky chappy Matt can't fix it.
