#ZantedeschiaAethiopica, commonly known as calla lily and arum lily, is a species of flowering plant in the family Araceae, native to Southern Africa.
They’re popping up everywhere here in #Melbs and they’re looking healthy.
Love their robust petal structure and those yellow stigma are something else.
Very pretty indeed.

On my wayt to Manchester to give my #chemistry and #climatechange talk #StrangeIce. And hugely looking forward to having a cup of something with @stecks later as we plot a cunning plot for a cool maths and critical thinking event to try out at Cheltenham Science Festival next year.

@drmikepj Whoa. There’s an awful lot there! I’m so envious. Upper tangential arc( and a hint of Parry?) and the outer halo too, 44 degrees(?). In fact I will talk about haloes briefly in my #StrangeIce talk at Cheltenham Science Festival in a week’s time. May I use your photo?

God, the #BurgerKing in #Cheltenham is grim. Painted prison grey, order screen software only half installed, bare minimum effort. Food is good but if you order a vegan royale and onion rings you’re in for a wait. And the drinks dispensers are mostly empty. And this is at the START of #GoldCup day. The race wankers have only just got here.

So liebe Freunde, ein weiteres Urlaubs Kapitel ist beendet.
Wir haben Wales heute morgen verlassen und sind schon win wenig traurig. Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen.
Küste geht ja immer 🥰
Wir sind jetzt in the Midlands gelandet, in der Nähe von Cheltenham und verbringen hier die letzten Tage.
So tolle Sonnenuntergangs Bilder wird es hier wohl nicht geben, deswegen am Ende wieder Bilder von Gestern.
Zudem waren wir gestern such noch Fossilien suchen und such erfolgreich. An dem Strand wo wir waren, war es aber au h super einfach.
Was hier auf unserem neuen Zeltplatz cool ist, in den Toiletten gibt es kostenloses Damenhygieneartikel, die Waschmaschine ist kostenlos usw. Dafür ist es Farmland und wir müssen mehr fahren, um wo hin zu kommen, wo man mal "laufen" kann.
Alles ist eben nicht beisammen. Zeltplätze am Fluss gibt es hier auch, aber entweder sind sie nur für Camper und Wohnwagen und/oder scheiße teuer. Deswegen FarmCamping.
Der Zeltplatz hier ist aber trotz seiner offenen Fläche, mehr als gut besucht.
Liebe #Fediverse BewohnerInnen, die mit Mastodon unterwegs sind, euch werden wieder viele Bilder vorenthalten, dieser psir hat mehr als 4.

Nature Walk Open Talk for Software Freedom Day
Software Freedom Day happens once per year where real world events take place across the globe with the aim of introducing the general public to the benefits of using high quality free (libre) open source software (FLOSS).
This year I got on board and put on an event near Cheltenham in the UK. After having spoken with Jurgen at the Digital Freedom Foundation about my apprehensions to running such an event I felt confident I could give it a good go. Rather than getting people completely absorbed in the tech I felt it would be good to go walking in nature to first talk with the group and answer any questions, before heading home for tea and cake (for good purpose, to be explained…) and then opening the devices up and getting people using some FLOSS.
The weather was not on my side and I had a couple of understandable drop outs as a result, but the rest of us braved the rain and enjoyed the walk and talk. [Pic of me talking] Loosely it went like this:
I explained the purpose of Software Freedom Day and established that everyone knew what I meant by software as apposed to hardware.
I then went in to detail about what defines FLOSS: That it’s four pillars are that anyone can view, copy modify and share its code; That to use free software is to make a political and ethical choice asserting the right to learn, and share what we learn with others; That it is beneficial in education, government, home and business (everywhere!) …There were actually attendees from all of these quarters!
I clarified the difference between proprietary software and FLOSS and talked about how and why FLOSS has higher transparency, greater security, better quality, more flexibility, usually lower cost and no vendor lock-ins. I also explained the difference between just open source software (not free/libre) and free/libre open source software.
Having done all of this I asked my fellow walkers if they knew of any FLOSS software they currently use. Most didn’t know whether things were FLOSS or not but we did establish that some were already being used such as Firefox and WordPress.
In order to show how prevalent FLOSS is I asked people to give me some names of software they use regularly and I’d see if I could name its FLOSS alternative (promising to look it up when I got home if I couldn’t off the top of my head!). Office suites, instant messaging apps, social media apps, map software and photo editing software were all brought up – all ones which I was fortunately able to name the various FLOSS alternatives for.
Having paraphrased a great quote by Jaz – “If the phone companies listened to and analysed our every word in all our conversations to sell our preferences to advertisers and political campaigns, we’d lose our collective minds. But we’ve come to a place where its normalised that software companies do it … a lot of people may be unaware, most probably are and don’t like it but feel there’s no alternative. But there is an alternative: FLOSS.” – I asked, to unanimous affirmative response, if people would prefer to use FLOSS over proprietary software.
We got home, dried off, boiled the kettle and I brought out cakes from three different sources. [Photo of the cakes] One selection was from a bakery. Another was from a shop (inside a packet with the ingredients on) and the final one was home made with the full recipe (ingredients and method) offered with it. I asked if people could look at the cakes as software and tell me which was FLOSS, which was just open-source and which was neither. They got it right, woo 🎉 and I hoped the cake analogy would make it easier for them to share with others. 🍰
I had a few devices that people took turns playing on to test out some FLOSS alternatives to software they currently use including Libre Office, Nexcloud, Gimp, Inkscape, Joplin, Ardour and Podverse, while others downloaded Element Messenger on their phones to communicate via Matrix. [Photo of people trying out some FLOSS alternatives]
A valid question asked was how would people would go about sourcing FLOSS. I suggested a few websites (Switching Software, Awesome Privacy, Chatons Open Source Software Finder, and itsfoss).
One really interesting point that came up and took us on a little tangent was when one participant asked how to respond to people who say, ‘I have nothing to hide so why should I care if I’m spied on?’. I dug out the fantastic article by Boris Veldhuijzen van Zanten entitled, Read this if you’ve got ‘nothing to hide’, which really does answer the question.
Concerns were raised at the difficulty of using new software which may work slightly differently to what people were used to. The extra effort to learn something new was a concern but I said it was nothing to be afraid of and that with the example of Photoshop to Gimp it’s not like learning a new language it’s just that some things may be in different places so it’s just like getting used to that in the same way people may have had to get used to changes when using something on a Mac compared to a PC.
Oh yeah, and we did touch on Linux too but didn’t delve too far. I was aware of information overload at this point and really this was more of a taster and ‘first entry’ to FLOSS for most of the people there.
It was a really engaging event and I’m glad I did it. I feel that everyone present was genuinely interested and will now take steps to go FLOSS if poss! I’d been unsure if I’d be able to do an event for Software Freedom Day being relatively new to everything myself and also not liking to talk in front of people, but I feel that by doing it as a less formal nature walk and discussion helped on that front too.
Of all of the FLOSS I’d suggested it felt as though Open Street Map was the one that everyone present was going to start using immediately.
Mine was one of 63 events worldwide for this year’s Software Freedom Day. I hope next year we can grow that to a few hundred or more. It seems that FLOSS is becoming more and more utilised and embraced so hopefully that’s a realistic prospect.

SWANSEA: Brangwyn Hall named one of the UK’s top 10 micro wedding venues
Swansea’s Brangwyn Hall has been named one of the UK’s top ten most popular venues for micro weddings — the only Welsh venue to make a national ranking dominated by London locations.
The Grade I listed hall, part of Swansea’s Guildhall complex and licensed for civil ceremonies, tied for ninth place in a ranking compiled by luxury chauffeur service SIXT ride.
The company analysed TikTok searches, Instagram posts and Google searches to identify the venues generating most buzz among couples planning intimate weddings in 2026.
The Guildhall’s 48-metre Art Deco clock tower, illuminated at night — a landmark visible across the city. Image: Brangwyn HallBrangwyn Hall scored 19.8 out of 100, level with Sheffield Town Hall, based on 5,200 TikTok searches, 1,000 Instagram posts and 8,100 Google searches in the past year. The top spot went to Chelsea Old Town Hall in London, which scored 86.8 — a reflection of the capital’s dominance of the micro wedding scene, with four of the top five venues located in London.
The ranking reflects a growing national trend towards smaller, more intimate weddings. Searches for “how much is a registry office wedding UK” have grown 1,200% in the past year, while searches for “registry office wedding package” are up 967%.
The trend has been driven partly by high-profile celebrity weddings including that of singer Charli XCX and Made in Chelsea stars Sophie Habboo and Jamie Laing.
The Brangwyn Hall’s main room at its most atmospheric — the British Empire Panels by Sir Frank Brangwyn provide a dramatic backdrop for evening events. Image: Brangwyn HallBrangwyn Hall is one of Wales’ most distinctive event venues — and one with a history that goes well beyond weddings. Built as part of Swansea’s Guildhall and opened in 1934, the hall was originally designed to house the British Empire Panels: sixteen large paintings by artist Sir Frank Brangwyn, commissioned in 1924 for the Royal Gallery of the House of Lords to commemorate the First World War.
The House of Lords rejected them — reportedly because they were considered too colourful and spirited — and Swansea Council acquired them instead. The panels now line the walls of the hall, making it one of the most visually striking wedding backdrops in Wales.
The venue offers spaces ranging from the intimate Lord Mayor’s Room to the grand main hall, with capacity for between 20 and 500 guests.
The George Hall — the smaller of the Guildhall complex’s two main rooms, with its ornate coffered ceiling and gold friezes. Image: Brangwyn HallThe Guildhall complex has also served as a backdrop for some major screen productions. The building’s imposing neoclassical exterior and Art Deco interior have made it a favourite with film and TV producers.
Most notably, the complex featured in the Netflix blockbuster Havoc, starring Tom Hardy and Forest Whitaker, which used both the Guildhall exterior and the Brangwyn Hall interior for key scenes. Described as the largest feature film ever shot entirely in Wales, Havoc transformed the building into an American police precinct. The Guildhall has also featured in the BBC’s Sherlock and multiple episodes of Doctor Who.
The George Hall set for a wedding breakfast — one of several rooms in the Guildhall complex available for civil ceremonies and celebrations. Image: Brangwyn HallThe hall’s profile as a wedding venue may be about to grow further. Swansea’s register office is currently housed at the Civic Centre on the waterfront — one of the last council services still operating from the brutalist building.
The Civic Centre is earmarked for a major redevelopment as a new City Waterfront district with apartments, an aquarium and a lido. It is understood that as the Civic Centre moves closer to redevelopment, the register office could relocate to the Guildhall complex — which would make the Grade I listed building the official home of Swansea’s civil ceremonies as well as one of the city’s most sought-after wedding venues.
The full top ten, according to SIXT ride’s analysis, is: Chelsea Old Town Hall, The Old Marylebone Town Hall, Islington Town Hall, Manchester Town Hall, Hackney Town Hall, Cheltenham Town Hall, Oxford Town Hall, Orleans House Gallery in Twickenham, and jointly in ninth place, Sheffield Town Hall and Brangwyn Hall.
