  • #1631: A Soundwalk with Ounce

    Whilst I do say hello at the beginning of this episode, this is mostly a non-verbal podcast. 

    I've been particularly enjoying listening to the sounds of my hillside recently—standing at my gate or walking out into the field up to the Caterpillar of Oaks has been very calming

    I wanted to try and capture some of that peace and calmness for you and so decided I'd try my hand at making you a soundwalk. Ounce  joined me for the walk and George and Louise make a guest appearance towards the end.

    Below are some timestamps to help you follow along. I'd recommend listening with headphones if you can.

  • #1630: Walking up to the Caterpillar of Oaks and explaining why I have been so quiet

    Ounce joins me for a walk up to the Caterpillar of Oaks as I explain why I haven’t recorded an episode of One Thing Today for about three weeks and why I may be quiet for a while longer.

    Whilst the news I’m sharing is very sad, I want you to know that I’m basically okay and, as I say in the podcast, life has taken on a sharpness and clarity that is making me feel very appreciative of it and those around me.

  • #1628: Cool air, some ripe blackberries and deciding to knit in the garden

    In this episode I'm greeted by some VERY welcome cool air as I head out to see the chickens...

    After I finished talking to you, I sat in the lovely fresh air and knitted for a while. I'll be posting a video over on my Patreon page in a couple of days so you can work alongside me if you'd like to.

  • #1624: Semi-charged batteries and a gentle walk up the hill

    I'm emerging after a week's holiday and am noticing that my batteries aren't quite as recharged as I had hoped they would be.

    However, the morning is pleasantly cool and I'm feeling up to a gentle walk up to The Caterpillar of Oaks. Would you like to join me?

  • #1623: A barefoot walk up the hill

    This morning felt the right time to do something that I've been thinking about doing for a little while – going on a barefoot walk up the hill to The Caterpillar of Oaks.

    Would you like to join me?

  • #1622: Stacking memories

    I'm having an early morning knit in bed and talking about some of the memories that starting knitting again has brought up for me and muse a little on how new memories might be stacked on these old ones...
