Following along the lines of many others I have also set up a profile where the skies are a pretty colour. I’ll stay on here for a while too but it seems that by January many may have moved across… @katemellor@bsky.social 👍🏻

Thank you to the person who just requested @Elbow One Day Like This on @moresussex just now! An absolute pleasure to hear this - one of my favourites, always makes me a little emotional too Tom (and it’s one of my funeral songs… 😳) A reminder to make the most of life ☀️
