On the streets, Friday night, in prison Sunday morning. What a life I lead!
Martine, the prison chaplain, was on fine form this morning. With her blue hair and her rainbow-heart-covered clerical shirt and dog collar, you can't miss her in a crowd. She spoke about mental health and showed the video of Lewis Capaldi's breakdown at Glastonbury in 2023, and then his song, Survive.
She has a very different style from the other chaplain. She goes with the flow, takes questions, and is relaxed, and very loving. I tried to find a photo online of the shirt she was wearing but failed sadly.

We don't do Valentine's Day so yesterday I spent it washing, shopping, cooking, gardening, and jigsaw-ing. I even managed to fit in watching Scotland beat England at rugby. Husband was disappointed but admitted Scotland was the better team on the day. Last week Scotland was beaten by Italy and there were calls for the manager to resign, and so on. It looked as though the team was in the doldrums, then they come out and play their socks off.
So it looks as if Wales will be getting the wooden spoon again this year! This afternoon it's Wales against France. Not sure if I can cope with watching it: it could be a massacre. I will watch of course but I'll definitely be accompanied by a box of Maltesers.

Ages since you showed us a jigsaw puzzle. And yes, you live life in the fast lane.
A wonderfully soulful and sensitive song.
We don’t do Valentines much either, but ti’s a good excuse to have little treats or a breakfast out.
Haven't done one for ages. I know how to live.
I hadn't heard it before, it's very good.
I did think about a treat but . . .
