I loved writing about a place that is very special to me - and Iโ€™m thrilled to see this piece in The Clearing. Very grateful to the @LittleToller team for their support along the way. โœ๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ ๐ŸŒŠ
We're so pleased to publish this lovelty, Larkin-inspired essay by Paul Gamble, about Spurn, on The Clearing today. littletoller.co.uk/the-clearโ€ฆ

Iโ€™m decoupling myself from this platform. A coarse owner has turned my visits here unpalatable. Fair play to those good people who choose to remain, but my pictures, stories and thoughts will now only be posted on Instagram: aleator1962. See below for a flavour. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿฆ‹

Sad that I canโ€™t join todayโ€™s @MarchforWater in London. Wishing well to those who will wear blue, walk the yards, and make their voices heard. These imagined words are worth listening to โฌ‡๏ธ. ๐Ÿ’ฆ
Dear Humansโ€ฆ A Letter from the River Roding On the eve of the March for Clean Water, I recorded (with @letterstoearth_ ) a letter from the river I love to the human world, imagining what this ancient river would say to us if it could speak. โ€œThe most important thing you need to do is to take my voice & intereses into account in all the decisions you make about me. And you need to do this not just because I have an inherent right to exist, and not just because you rely on me for your own existence, but because I believe fundamentally you miss me, the connection we used to have, and the river I used to be.โ€ Looking forward to seeing lots of you who already speak for our rivers at the march tomorrow to make our voices heard.

Arrested rioters are about to find out that, when they are alone in their cells, Elon Musk, Nigel Farage, Isabel Oakeshot, Richard Tice and the staff at GB News won't come out to help them and their families. They'll be safe and secure at home while you do time
Replying to @Joanna__Hardy
Ask any lawyer who blearily pressed the cell buzzer at Highbury Corner Magistratesโ€™ Court in the early hours of those hot, dangerous days in August 2011. Thereโ€™s always a reckoning.

Yes, there is a dark speck in the middle of the pic. And, yes, it is a hobby with a house martin in its talons. Amazing what you see when lying flat on your back at the @CamFolkFest . The falcon isolated the prey and chased it down relentlessly. #BirdsFromFarAway @StephenMoss_TV
