@ObsidianUrbex It reminds me of my nana's house & I like the trestle table that powers the sewing machine by lady-power.

We have a heatwave at present in the UK so today's window is from a couple of winters past. A view over the snow filled garden from the diamond window, stained glass door reflecting in the windows. All things must pass.
Wir haben derzeit eine Hitzewelle in Großbritannien, also ist das heutige Fenster von ein paar vergangenen Wintern. Ein Blick über den Garten aus dem Diamantfenster, die Buntglastür spiegelt sich in den Fenstern. Alle Dinge müssen vergehen.

Artificial Insantity has sussed that some humans are greedy and has worked is way into finance, stock markets and has it's eyes set on the bond markets next.
We should be fearful, or (better) goaded to act to prevent another catastrophe.

What am I reading?
Just Finished:
Summit of All Fears by Jonathan Whitelaw - Quirky escapism and cosy crime.
In Progress:
How to Stop Time by Matt Haig. I don't normally read books that everyone is reading but Matt has me hooked. Quite different in style and content.

@tekguru It's not always like that, the North Sea can be rough but it can be lovely too.

The North East coast of England between Saltburn and Whitby. Sea calm, slight haze, clear sky, gentle cliffs, numerous inlets.

@GiftArticles I came across a book titled 'ICE Killing the American Dream' by Heike Phelan. It chronicles the incarceration of an Irish Citizen who overstayed her visa because she was involved in a road accident. ICE detained her despite her not wanting to stay in the USA. It's a riveting read and also disturbing. This ICE thing has been going on for a while, under the radar.
