Ah. I was so confused as to how there was one still in flight condition!

Ice inside the window would suit me just fine. Until I had to get up.

Agreed. I don't even have the heating above 18/19. Window is open most of the year, I love a cold bedroom. I have a fan on all summer to go with my weighted blanket.
I just run hot I guess.

18 is vest weather in my world. Anything above 25 is heatwave and I'm dying.
Why yes, I am Scottish.

Exactly. I read the books as a kid. They were fine, a little dated even then. New Padd can get in the sea.

Mine sent it to me. Our new home search just got a whole lot more interesting.

Peeling garlic is tedious. Peeling shallots or those rubbish small onions is hellish.

I may be able absolute weirdo but I LOVE peeling eggs. Whenever we have a wake at work I genuinely ask the kitchen if I can peel for them. It's so enjoyable.
I could happily peel hundreds. The most satisfying kitchen task.

So frustrating. The weather is just calling out for open tarts too.
Never fear thought, I've got this for life. There will be years of bakes on that darling.

The element has blown on our oven. Can you imagine! Worst bloody timing.

Big Sainsbury's had them the last few weeks.
I steamed then tossed in butter with salt and pepper. Classic but lovely.

My first memory of Q was him pushing through an open air art gallery/sculpture garden. So the more off beat something is, the more I just nod and "yeah".

Damn. I was hoping you were back from your travels and these delights were available in BSE.

It was miserable as fuck and I was scared and lonely, but it did probably save me. The peace of the first few weeks will never leave me.

Without being glib, it was a shitty time for almost everyone but parts of it helped too. I was near a breakdown to be honest, the stop helped me.
But during the long course of it all, we lost my besties mum horribly to cancer. And that broke her. It took her years to accept it. Still is.

Damn. I missed my calling.
I can do both the foghorn sneeze and the silent sinus empty sneeze.

Assuming the UK equivalent is fine, I'm also on a 0. Some are because old processes die hard in some industries, some because things were old fashioned for a while.

I'm sorry to hear that. I'm hoping you can find a way forward that makes you still feel like you. Sending love x

I've just started using 🟦🦋 and finding the #uglydogs all over again has reminded me how much I love this community.
The dog bus. The BBQ place. Blowhole. Chimkin skin. Feelings boxes. Cranberry bogs.
It's good to be back.

I love your child.

Would also be amazing with a raclette or other stinky cheese. Or even a fondue for total decadence.

Thank you!
I'm looking forward to trying it! It feels wonderful, sturdy, strong yet so smooth too. Perfect.

We have at least 3. Or did before winter. I hope they all made it.
Could they be getting in the lovely front gate, or under a missing brick? They get through really quite small gaps.
If you do see another, add a second feeder. They are territorial. And they stress poop when confronted by another

I also use Blink, as do some of the hedgie lovers still on twitter. They work brilliantly. Our first hedgie came visiting before I even got home from work this evening. Wonderful animals to have.

I am a fainter. If anyone can faint, it's me. Let's test it out.

Killed my besties mum in 2020 as well. Such a cunt.
