This is fun from the new Overcast update. Surprised about Appstories being in the top 4.

That should help me stay sane for the next few days… Screenshot of a list of muted words on micro.blog that cover the US election.

The past two seasons were fights against relegation… the current standings… I was 10 the last time we were in third in the Premier League! ⚽️

My elephant made it to the wall of a fun little exhibition at a local gallery.

Went to visit a small gallery exhibition opening last night. A collection of postcard sized boards by loads of different artists. Somehow got roped into doing something for it to fill some gaps left by those that had been sold…

Trying out something new with iOS 18…

I’d love something like this on the iPad instead of Stage Manager.

Tiling options green traffic light.

Added a new ink to my collection today. A green for summer.

Now this is what I call fun coffee packaging! ☕️

This mornings brew…

The photo shows a bag of Kawa coffee placed on a kitchen counter. The bag is orange and labeled with "Kawa," indicating it contains Colombian Perla Negra coffee beans. In the background, there is a white coffee machine and an electric kettle. In the foreground, coffee beans are placed on a white paper filter resting on a digital scale, which displays a reading of "0.00."

That this happens on Apple’s own devices is crazy…

Siri's response to the question "What time is the apple event tonight". It says you can find out on the Apple website instead of giving me the information.
Desktop calm - A Mac desktop showing widgets with some data blurred out

I wish I could make my iPad Home Screen as calm as my Mac one, but still with the utility. Full colour widgets are too shouty.

Starting the day off with some beautiful coffee in my local coffee shop. They’ve got some stunners from Kawa Coffee on today and I couldn’t resist taking some photos. ☕️

Love receiving Travellers notebook packages in the mail.

A package wrapped in brown paper with green string sits on a felt desk mat next to a brown travellers notebook and an orange pen in a leather pen loop.

Had a lovely long weekend down in Cornwall staying in St Ives. Lots of fresh air, mostly good food, good company, and some winter sunshine.

Watching the sunset behind St Michael’s Mount whilst enjoying a Cornish Cream Tea was beautiful.

I think my coffee station has reached peak Jonny Ive… ☕️

New ink day! Just as the weather turns cold and autumn truly starts to arrive I have my new autumn pen and ink setup. 🖋️

My parents bought me a Travellers Notebook for my birthday and I love it. Feels and smells amazing. 🖊️📔

Trying this little beauty this morning. ☕️

Photo of a tin of limited lot coffee roasted by Campbell and SymePhoto of the back of a tin of limited coffee. Coffee is from Peru, a naturally processed geisha, with tasting notes of lavendar, grapes, and passion fruit.

A night of natural wine tasting with these two 🍷

Plus these two that are going to a local coffee shop for them to cup.

Two bags of coffee from Fireheart Coffee, one red bag of Brazil and one green bag from Indonesia.

I’ve got some seriously good coffees in the house at the moment… the red bourbon is especially 😚👌🏻 ☕️

5 bags of coffee from 4 different roasters. 2 with funky illustrated labels.

Deliveroo finally added live activities!

Tried my hand at an Austin Kleon style collage in between Teams calls this morning. Quite fun. 🎨

So engrossed in my book I dropped coffee on the page 📚

New coffee from Plot coffee roasters. ☕️

Origin: Patalillo wet mill, Tarrazú, Costa Rica Process: Red Honey Notes: red apples, chocolate, and nutmeg

Such a shame what happened to the brand design of the fashion world.

Before and after of high end fashion houses

Exploring the IBM Design Language is really rather beautiful…

Eliot Noyes quote about unity in design.

Came out of church to snow this morning…

Lovely cocktails to start dinner this evening. Had a delicious feast of Bao and BBQ with Bao bread and butter pudding to finish!
