ashlymeI aten't dead. I've been gone from here far too long, though. Just a quick entry to restart.
A lot has happened in the last few months. My mother died in this house; I saw it happen - I've not discussed that much on social media, and may/mayn't write about it more here. Better stuff: I found a new partner (let's designate her B from now on) in Coventry, and I spend a lot of time over there now.
Yesterday was grey and hazy: an elongated dusk. I hadn't slept well, and my IBS was playing me up worse than usual; but I walked down to the village hall to vote. It's gratifying to hear Boris was turned away from his local polling booth for forgetting photo ID. Idiot.

Leopards, faces, etc..
