@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialI'm needing to spend most of my days on my bed at the moment, but today I made it out to my gate, where I was greeted by this beautiful purple-grey sky.
The tips of the caterpillar of oaks are beginning to colour for autumn.
Back to bed now ❤️🐌
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialThank you, that’s very kind of you to say 🙏🙂
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialIt does my heart good to see this, Helen. Thank you! Great drawings — and I love that orange ✍️🧡🔑
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialGloriously wet and grey again today with a sprinkling of sheep. Just the right #MorningView to inspire another day of rest.
Go gently ❤️🐌
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialThat’s lovely to hear 😀📮
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialA wonderfully smokey grey sky greeted me at my gate this morning as I filmed my #MorningView.
Grey skies always make resting easier, and resting is what I'm going to be doing today.
I wonder what sort of day you're going to be having ❤️🐌
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialThis gentleman describes himself as “chronically offline”. I like the sound of that 🙂
When was the last time you wrote a letter or a postcard?
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialThanks Colleen ❤️ I’m generally very careful about pacing myself (though I definitely do slip up from time to time 🫤), but today it felt important to me to make the trip to the gate and I’m glad I did. I’m having a very quiet rest of the day now! ❤️🐌
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialThis self-portrait always makes me think of Mr Benn :-)
I feel very sad that David Hockney is no longer in the world. ❤️🐌

@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialI love that this transported me back to my early-80s comic obsession. Thank you, Alistair!
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialI'm late with today's #MorningView. I'm very tired and my gate felt a long way from my bed, but I'm pleased to have made it out here to see the sheep 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑
Wishing you as gentle a day as you need ❤️🐌
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialIt’s Tuesday, which means it’s Koosje Day—time for another Draw Tip Tuesday Video. Being an Introvert myself, I especially enjoyed this one ❤️🐌
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialI had quite an audience as I filmed my #MorningView 😀
It's lovely to see the sheep back in numbers 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑
Wishing you a gentle start to the week.
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialThat’s Kevin-the-Cockerel, he lives at the end of the lane. He’s probably made appearances before, by not recently. He’s an early riser and I’ve not been so much of one lately 🙂🐓
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialI love this ✍️🤩
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialIt’s a wonderfully grey day here on my hillside. Just right for a much-needed restful day.
Wishing you the same if that’s what you’re in need of.
❤️🐌
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialGood morning. It feels very calm by my gate this morning.
The sheep have been rather absent of late, but it was lovely to spy one at the crest of the hill as I recorded today's #MorningView. 🐑
Have a lovely day ❤️🐌
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialIt’s a beautiful morning here in Wales and I was excited to come out and record my #MorningView today.
I hope there’s some sunshine, either real or metaphorical, where you are today.
Go gently ❤️🐌
@michaelnobbs.bsky.socialThat’s lovely to hear, Ness. Thank you 🙏 ❤️🐌
