As Suicide Prevention Awareness Month ends, the conversation shouldn’t end here. Football is community. It’s the people you see week in, week out. Sometimes, those little chats matter most. youtu.be/tX8TgVR33KM

Had a horrible week dealing with a persistent toothache, so I treated myself to a nice cosy day out in Rochester yesterday. Tea & cake, hours spent browsing the shelves of a fantastic vintage bookshop, and Medway Pride vibes all round. Lovely. Just what the doctor, or maybe the dentist, ordered.

Had a wonderfully birdy Christmas Eve at the London WWT. With crippling views of Bittern fishing and brief glimpses of Bearded Tit (both lifers!). An overwintering Blackcap on the feeders certainly didn’t feel christmasy despite efforts made by a Redpoll to shift the day winterwards. #LondonBirding

Nice to be back in SW London for Christmas. A sunrise walk around Richmond Park yesterday failed to produce Woodcock. But happy to see 2 Raven and a Peregrine (both Park ticks for me) as well as one of the wintering Dartford Warblers (Lifer!). #surreybirding #londonbirding

Good birding this morning in Richmond Park. Little Owl and Nuthatch were highlights. But bird of the day was this (poorly photographed) Green Sandpiper, great views of it wading and that lovely white rump in flight. Still on the island at Upper Pen Pond when I left. #LondonBirding #SurreyBirding
