Many of us find refuge and relaxation in creativity. My hope is that this will be a space where members can share photographs of things that are important to them - of paintings, models, knitting, embroidery, crochet, lego models, calligraphy, photographs or whatever you can put a name to.

Spring Watch 🦉 from your living room or garden 🐝
I've had the privilege of watching crows build a nest near the top of a tree from my top floor windows. It took about a fortnight to weave sticks into a basket. I read that these birds mate for life and build more than one nest in case one is not viable but they have decided to settle here 😊 Mrs Crow has been sitting on it…

1st in 5 years - hairdresser tomorrow
Because it's so expensive and because I detest the experience, I've avoided the hairdresser more and more since forever, and stopped going altogether 5 years ago. I hate the experience for being trapped in the chair, the constant touching, that it takes so frikkin long, as well as the constant blabbing by the hairdresser…

What are you listening to right now?
Are you listening to any music, TV, or podcasts as you go about your day? I'm doing a music project at the moment so I'm listening to a lot of ambient game and film soundtracks while I work. Not usually what I listen to but it's quite relaxing! What are you listening to?

Hot or cold drinks when it's warm?
