Instead of tipping the lego box out and then gathering it up manually (whilst also potentially kneeling on a piece and thus exposing children to swear-shouting), tip it onto a blanket, then gather up like a lego dim sum. Empty effortlessly back into the box. You're welcome.

No American explains the long-term causes of Trump's better than Billy Joel in Allentown. In fact, I could put together a real cool course on Billy Joel and late industrial US culture - if I weren't busy. Someone else please do it

It's not a secret I love living in #Orkney but when you're single and live far from family being ill can feel a bit more demoralising. Thank goodness for good friends who check in and not only bring you the tissues you ask for but delicious healthy homemade soup too 🥰 most I've eaten in days 😷🤧🤒😴
