Cool and windy for us , with the odd shower of rain.
Nights are still a bit chilly , but I haven’t had the heater on for a good week or so.
The birds and bees are still enjoying the last of the winter flowers.
🌸 We have lots of Blossom appearing everywhere 🌸. 😊

Re: HOME-LIFE OF THE LANCASHIRE FACTORY FOLK DURING THE COTTON F

I read probably the first 6 paragraphs, that was enough for me.
Felt desperate for those people. Could have been our ancestors. Too much for me.

Some google research says that “Up before sparrow fart.”, was used in WW1.
Didn’t see any particular nationality mentioned.

Not in the corner Stanley.
The parrot is on the bark, watching me, watching it.
I enlarged it. Took the pic yesterday, late afternoon Winter light.

We are back to Cold, Windy and Wet.
We had a Thunderstorm / Hail Storm on Thursday night, lots of damage done.
One poor lady was hit in the face with large hail, she was hurt quite badly.

Re: WHAT ATTRACTED YOUR ATTENTION TODAY?

Some very powerfully images there Tize, well worth seeing.
The image of the woman and baby - I wonder if the woman is the mother or grandmother. A very hard life there.
