Holbein’s epic The Ambassadors is seen as one of the most mysterious paintings in Western art. But understand the circumstances in which it was made, in 1533, and the meaning becomes clearer. Let me try a thesis on you. Long 🧵 1/

Great news that this project is finally confirmed. @HistoricEngland very generously increased their funding to £235,000 for the repair of 3 Grade II listed summerhouses within SRA and CCC are very grateful for their support, and I for one look forward to the works starting 🔜 🥳

Look at this 👀 This is a 19th Century summerhouse located at the Stoney Road Allotments in Cheylesmore. It's one of three summerhouses which are now going to be restored thanks to grant funding from @HistoricEngland.

Tidied up the garden today before the rain sets in, and noticed the strawberries are still flowering. Very pleased with my new Abutilon Marion, which I hope will grow well in its semi sheltered location, but not too tall.

Flooding of the car park next to the River Stour by my house - complete with two stranded cars. Thankfully it has subsided, not so sure about whether the cars are ok. More warned for tomorrow though.. must park car elsewhere.
