We moved from U.K. to Canada and I insisted on a manual transmission because there were ENOUGH changes in my life all at once to deal with. There’s only I guy at garage who can drive it when it’s serviced 😬

Because it’s never enough to be dealing with just one thing 😭
I heard this on the radio on my way home from helping my teacher friend set up her room today. Seeing everything she purchased for class, it lifts a burden off teachers, too.
I hear you on that x Be kind to yourself and take it one day at a time.
Oh, I am so sorry to see this. I’d seen the post about the solo walk but thought it was because she was recovering - my heart goes out to you. Freya looked a beautiful dog, and your ALT text on ‘she’s all that matters’ with the blurry background moved me to tears x
Gosh, that’s so close to us. We’re packed and ready to go if needed but it’s going to be a long and sleepless night of hoping for no updates telling us to go 😥 Stay safe out there x x
Look at you, all toothy on your close up 🦈 Currently on alert for wildfires here in Nova Scotia. One is out of control very close to us and in a huge area of dry as dust woodland. Going to be a long sleepless night here.
If a dog is involved, invariably the answer involves cheese or a sausage.
My exact response seeing which show it was!
The longer this goes on, the more anxious I grow.
Of all the places to put them…I imagine a lot of rubbish gets posted into that letterbox 😞
Given the traffic these days, this idea doesn’t seem all that far-fetched 😬
Fingers crossed for her and you x x
Oh, poor sweetheart. Here’s to smooth and uneventful healing and a full return to spaniel mischief very soon x
Easier to find than I thought!

Somewhere on the internet there’s a video of a woman taking a group of daschunds through one while wearing glow stick necklaces as she plays rave music. Top tier content!
How are Trump's economic policies impacting you? Let me give you a hard example. 🧵
This! I came looking for the Odie fans.
My friend lived in the village and was married in that church 🥰
I’m sure this is all *fine* 🫣😬
You’d have been made very welcome - the Maritimes are beautiful. Maybe next year…
Sounds to me like the timing was just right 🧶
Best comment for me 😆
I just wanted to say this post popped into my feed and I’m so glad it did. I’ve missed you since I moved over from Twitter and hadn’t realised you were here, too. That’s blessing enough for today 💜
Gosh, that fourth one hits hard. I’d never considered it in that light.
Wowsers might be the best word to describe all the wonderful postcards that have arrived recently for the #PostcardDrop2025! Thursday: 6x🇬🇧 Friday: 3x🇬🇧 Saturday: 2x🇬🇧 1x🇮🇲 1x🇺🇸 1x🇪🇸 Monday: 9x🇬🇧 Total so far: 108! 🥰✉️🌍🎉 thehandwrittenletterappreciationsociety.org/the-big-summ...
She was sailing by Peggy’s Cove this afternoon.
Make sure you get the good treats in for the break.
My phone lock-screen has been this from outside there for about ten years now. Enjoy nerding out.
I walked past the baseboard heater and couldn’t believe it had come on…then remembered I was in thick socks and a sweater so it shouldn’t have been a surprise!
May the odds be in your favour…especially at bedtime!
You know the economy’s tight when even the bears start hoarding the good stuff 🐻
Archway of light and shade. The sun was rising almost directly behind me casting a shadow of the hill on the land below. Photo taken this morning in St Michael's tower on Glastonbury Tor.
Your photos always make me pause and reflect for a moment. Thank you so much for sharing them with us here x
True facts. It always makes me chuckle a little.
Canadian Voter: I think who I voted for would be the best to take care of Trump, because Trump is, I’m sorry to say, an asshole.
That makes me feel better after spotting someone wearing a MAGA red cap outside Shoppers the other day. My teen and I were speechless seeing it.
When you read ‘50 years’ and think that’s such a long time ago…only for the clip to state the year you were born and the slow realisation hits that you are also soon to be 50 and thus born a long time ago.
I love when random posts I read on Twitter pop back up on here - it’s like a little unexpected gift that brightens my day.
Isn’t the paint the only thing holding it together these days?
A small bit of good news. Govts keep acting like it's a political decision to walk away from X, but it's political to choose to stay. Pleased that Halifax is being smart. www.ctvnews.ca/atlantic/nov...
Adjusting her red cap, “I never thought Leopard Seals would eat my face,” says a sullen Petrel who voted for the Leopard Seal Face Eating Party.
Comparing what’s happening in the US to Brexit…yep, it’s all flag-waving and posturing until the effects start to bite.
A little while ago, my parents' cat Bridget went missing. As the weeks dragged on, they became extremely worried. My dad devised a way to distract himself: he began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up in some of art and music's most iconic scenes.
If memory serves, we stayed downtown overnight so had hotel parking. It’s not like we’re lacking in parking, though, is it? Even on big game nights we’ve never struggled finding a spot.
So good, I posted it twice 😂🤦🏻♀️
August 2021, we enjoyed a lovely anniversary meal out there.
Thing is, they could do it easily as it was closed during lockdown period.
I’ve always enjoyed linguistic knowledge and this is right up my bleeping street.
I suspected some of these phrases even before the translation. Robin, I’m looking at you in particular.
At last! I shall act nonchalant around the bird feeder so they don’t realise I’m listening in.
I’m so sorry - the ‘sadmin’ paperwork that is involved is overwhelming even in straightforward cases. It feels a cruel burden on those already dealing with grief without adding complications and hoops to jump through x
I feel this was a ‘both/and’ situation rather than a ‘either/or’ one.
Cute as this is, the video clip it’s taken from is hilarious!
Canada : on sort les coudes.
Loving this new ad for #Canada #ChooseCanada 🍁🍁🍁
It’s Pepe le Peu in our household.
This speaks volumes to the kind of woman she was, to have touched his life in such a way through what are usually pretty mundane, everyday interactions. I’m so sorry for your loss of this magnificent lady x x
Avalon goes to sleeps under a lilac sky. Taken at sunset tonight in Glastonbury.
I’m from Bristol and this is a bonkers idea. It makes more sense for the road crossing to be done in batches rather than ad-hoc, as some times/places will be a steady stream of pedestrians pressing to cross.
Tells you everything you need to know about this puppet. The paperboy is only capable of raging, lying and stoking fear....we definately don't need that kind of non-leadership for Canada!!! #truenorthstrongandfree #markcarneyforPM #voteliberal #fucktrump
An Alien landing pad in Avalon Orchard and a golden escalator to the top? Glastonbury Tor this evening at sunset.
Oh, you are SELLING this spot to me! My husband and I both have a soft spot for German anything.
And I see they do rhubarb gin, so that’s two reasons to visit…and that’s before I scrolled to the vodka flavours.
Adding this to my list of places to visit, thank you!
obviously still looking forward to it hugely but turns out there really is an age at which "getting ready for a massive boozy party to be attended by dozens of pals" stops feeling fully "weeeyyyyy" and starts feeling a bit more "Theoden minutes before the battle of Helm's Deep"
My daughter came home from Keshan Goodman this week and said the cafe there was closed, as they usually buy bread there. They hadn’t seen any signs warning it was going.
I just saw details - how awful for them to be unnoticed for so long.
Our home. Our pride. ELBOWS UP 🇨🇦 ➡️ peacebychocolate.ca/collections/...
Love this! We might have to come by the shop next week to buy a bar or two 🇨🇦
I loved this as a child in England. It did hit you in the feels pretty hard as a kid - I was so keen for him to find his forever home.
We had a guy offering ‘pest control’ services, spraying all over to kill ants, woodlice, wasps, spiders…pretty indiscriminate which bugs would be killed. How tragic for our teeniest wildlife if this is the norm. I have a real spider phobia - they petrify me but I know they do good.
Oh, that’s such a beautiful thing for them to do.
😭😭😭😭 ❤️🤍❤️
Thank you!
Wait…FatFace is in Canada?! How did I not know this?!
Pleasantly surprised.
Today and every day around here 😭 I drove home in the rainy dark and feared for my wheels not being able to see clearly where one might be.
The German for ‘zoomies’, or FRAPs as I’ve now learnt. I’ve always loved the way they take words and just smush them together to create longer and longer ones rather than use a new and smaller standalone word. Fabulous!
Wab Kinew 🇨🇦 O Canada! This is OUR home & native land. Today all of us are patriots. Today we took action to respond to tariffs by deferring taxes so businesses can hang on to cash & keep people working. We will always protect your jobs & we will always be the true north, strong & free. #cdnpoli
The geese have spoken: 25% more tariffs = 100% less tunes. Even the radio stations are now backing their talk! Thats the Canadian way! #buycanadian #supportcanadianbusiness #supportcanadianeconomy #supportcanadians #fucktrump
Yep, our two won’t eat anything but one thing each. Considering they drink out of dirty plant pots and puddles and have eaten vermin, it’s kind of insulting that they insist on one type of bought food or nothing.
We’ll put Celine Dion forward. She’s won it once, now for her home nation 🇨🇦
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau 🇨🇦 as he meets Zelenskyy 🇺🇦 This is how World Leaders show respect and dignity. So proud of our Prime Mimister! #cdnpoli #peipoli
I’m so sorry for your loss x
The free world could really use Justin Trudeau as a leader right now! His leadership is more important than ever it has been. “Thank you for coming, your visit is very powerful” 🇺🇦🇨🇦
What an incredible #sunrise in #novascotia this morning #canada 🇨🇦
Oh no! I followed the cats years ago and hadn’t realised Cole had passed. Such a gorgeous kitty, I’m sad to hear of this x x
Also, good job!
We do that - Mark and I play against each other so means we don’t have an advantage if one posts results before the other has done the puzzle.
I said much the same earlier today. It’s a word I rarely use but I feel fully justified using it for them.
Oooh, we’ve not been there before but it’s on my list to try. This photo had bumped it way up!
I love this - we moved to Canada post-Brexit and never thought I’d see the day where I’d have the possibility of being back in Europe.
Canadians have been doing this the last month.
I have lived in Nova Scotia most of my life and one thing some people do not realize is how beautiful our beaches are here, we have over 40 saltwater beaches across this incredible Province. My favourite ones below: Stoney Island Beach /1
That’s in my hometown! I was really hoping the article was going to be about one coming to Halifax 🥲
I always struggled with the fact his ‘hair’ was so grey and made him look older. Like, Cinderella deserved better.
I actually own this book already - I’ve managed to outwit my two so far with its help!
