"We need to remember & recall that our own thrival depends on weaving ourselves back into relationship with our community. The wild community of rooted, winged, four legged, scaled, dark, soft, teeth filled, stormy, tender & green. Too often we look to humans & only humans for our health, our sanity, our sense of connection and community. Having learnt to believe that it is only among man that we will find wisdom, grace, medicine and friendship. Yet I believe much of our health & happiness relies on our connections to the more than human, to the health of the soil, to worm, the soft fungi, the robins song, the lichen, the entanglement of roots, the reaching ivy & the medicine of weeds. The earths wellbeing, along with our own mental & physical health has declined hugely due to the great many of steps we have taken to disentangle ourselves from our wildness & our more than human community." ——————— • Words by Brigit Anna McNeill • • Art by Ruth Evans •

"At the edge of our world, at the edge of the otherworld, the beautiful and mysterious faeries stand, watching and waiting to greet us, inviting us to journey with them as our guides while we walk the infinite paths of the Faerie." ~ Brian Froud art: Thomas Maybank #FaerieFriday

You'll want to be sitting down for this bit. Water companies are currently £82.7 billion in debt, have paid themselves £85 billion in dividends, leak over a trillion of litres of water per year, dump sewage for almost 4 million hours per year, have been convicted of over 1,200 criminal acts since 1989 and an average of 35% of your bill goes on nothing but paying more interest and yet more dividends. And not a single company has ever lost their operating licence. 👇

Yorkshire Water and Northumbrian Water have nearly 200 criminal convictions between them. On 6 August 2024, Ofwat fined them £47m and £17m for sewage dumping. Fines not paid, will not be paid. Firms claim to have invested. No penalty for abusing laws leftfootforward.org/2026/01/public…

Robert Allotment cat,now helped by Janet & Amanda
(Amanda) I want to ask you a favour today - if you live in the UK would you please sign this? It's called a 'petition' and even though I don't understand what it is, I know it's important. Maybe you could tell other humans about it and ask them to sign it too. I'll tell you more about the special August thing tomorrow. Here's the petition - petition.parliament.uk/petitions/7506…

Boze Herrington, Library Owl 😴🧙‍♀️
Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing an essay, writing a eulogy, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing for 5,000 years.

Nothing prepares you for how delightfully strange the Mabinogion is. There is a woman made of flowers, a cauldron that can revive the dead, a giant claw that steals horses, an underworld of feasts & hunting. Anyone with an interest in the roots of fantasy fiction must read it.

Reading Welsh legends on top of a mountain in the desert is exactly what the doctor ordered.

A closed season to protect pregnant hares was promised – where is the legislation? “In the King’s Speech last week, the government quietly dropped a bill that would have finally given legal protection to hares after centuries of persecution” Why???? Such a simple thing to save beautiful hares and their families #madness politicshome.com/opinion/articl…

P'nawn Da #WelshCraftHour just started a stashbuster jumper - can't get a decent photo (it's warmer than this photo), but it's got pinks, reds, mustard, brown, and burnt orange so it's a bit zingy!

CAT ADVISORY: It's very hot across the UK this weekend. All cats should find the coolest spot in their home and stay there. Tell your staff to bring chilled snacks and water every 15 minutes.
