Nor me. I had to hint them out.
Always the baddies 😂
Sugar is not my thing, clearly. Strands #549 “That's so sweet!” 🟡🔵🔵🔵 🔵💡🔵💡 💡🔵
Halfway through Strands. Two words I can't get. Beginning to suspect American shenanigans.
Not really, it's just that now he has reasons. Although good characters often take over the writing.
I made a right casserole of trimming my nails yesterday. Must tidy them up today
Waiting for herself to get home before tea. Looking forward to it. That first morning cuppa, marvellous.
Right, puzzles...
It is rainy, though. I didn't wake up at all last night though, most unusual for me. How are you, sunshine?
Quick glance at the news headlines. Same old depressing shit as always. *sigh*
6nb sounds like carelessness.
No idea. It's not particularly stormy now.
Wow. That was some sleep. Good morning, all. Good morning, sundry.
Wow. I love that.
Slootly zorsted, young warriors. Goodnight. Sleep well.
They didn't make it to Rotherham. Jam tarts did.
Gosh.
There's a thought!
I agree. I was totally invested
I'm northern.
Marzipan is straight from the devil's bottom.
Looked them up. TINY iced buns.
No wiser. A sort of iced bun, I'm guessing?
Confession - I don't actually know what they are.
Rolled up, the single fitted easily in the car. (we have two single mattresses on a double bed, so we can each have the firmness we prefer)
Vesteroy. Pocketed springs. Far more comfortable than my old rubbish.
Good mattresses.
Just got a new mattress from IKEA. It's smashing.
I just couldn't raise any interest in the modern royals. Tenth and eleventh century royals, that's a different matter entirely.
I've not seen any of those, no.
Sometimes, to calm myself down, I take a look at the Historical Scale Models feed, and it always does the trick.
Is he the one playing Carl? I've never seen him before.
That's alright then. As long as you didn't give him a chocolate finger.
That all depends on what sort of biscuit.
Just finished the first episode.
Great writer.
I've spent all day certain it was Monday. Now my brain aches.
OK, I'm hooked. This is good stuff.
Do you mean the emergency alert test next Sunday at 3? Or that Trump is going to make 'An Announcement' tomorrow?
Ffs! I mean... Jeebus.
Don't get me wrong, I'm having a go only at the FA. Up the Mariners all the way to Wembley!
We also self-reported, and had verbal clearance to field the player.
Correct, he was!
Aha! Thank you.
I don't remember it but it seems to be on YouTube. Here is the first episode. m.youtube.com/watch?v=vFiT...
Keep you all aglow.
When #BuryFC did the same thing as Grimsby we were throiwn out of the Cup and our opponents reinstated. I wonder what football authorities have against The Shakers? www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...
I don't remember any trouser action.
I remember Tony Haygarth. I'd forgotten the earlier series, though, thanks for that.
Yes, a big one.
Ah, then hurrah for Rye and Ravilious :-) Your cards *always* lift my spirits, no matter how low I might be. If mine can achieve a fraction of that down your end, then I'm chuffed to little mintballs.
Why do these people insist on telling everyone they're thinking of leaving? Why not just leave? Cos they're tossers, I know.
It was. It suddenly popped into my mind. I really enjoyed it.
Ice cream.
At least episode 1 is on YouTube, I'm told.
It was. It was really good. I remember it being funny and moving.
Mmmm snacks
It's a start.
I don't think TV ever does realistic geography.
How marvellous! Thank you.
Netflix says 'another season is coming'
I don't usually. Still not sure about this
I'm not usually a fan of police dramas - still not sure bout this one.
Does anyone remember a late - seventies Roy Clarke sitcom called 'Rosie'? Is it available to stream anywhere?
It looks a decent one, actually
Triple cooked chips?
Lunchtime!
I've had varying reports. So far, not bad, though I'm not a big lover of police drama.
Off you fuck then.
I understand nothing.
WIP 1: collaborative trilogy. WIP 2: spin-off novel. WIP 3: sequel brainstorming. One-trick pony? Who me? With my reputation? #SummerRealm #AmWriting
Just watched the first 25 mins of Dept. Q episode 1. I'm quite intrigued. I'll probably watch the second 35 minutes at some point.
Announcement? What? Beg pardon? As usual these days, I feel like I'm out of all the loops. And that's fine, actually. It's far better for my peace of mind these days to not have a scooby what's going on.
Have a nap with pleasant dreams.
Started having neckache since I began using a third pillow again. That idea's out of the window then.
This smells very much of inventing a problem so you can say you've solved it. And why "clamp down"? Why such violent language all the time?
Well done. Beat me.
Happy anniversary, you crazy kids.
Mmnnf
Uurgnmmmf
Right, I'm awake.
8/10 mostly guesses!
Oh go on then.
Can I bothered with the quiz?
Not bad. Enjoyed this one. Pips #15 Hard 🔴 2:46

Rats. I just could not see the right hand side without a hint. Strands #548 “Things are starting to take shape” 🔵🔵🔵🟡 🔵💡🔵🔵 🔵
I think it's been a thing longer than Tik Tok.
Good luck to everybody who's back at school today. May the strength of the wombat be with you.
I've not had enough spoons for years now.
No, HIS head, not yours. 😉
The correct answer was "I wouldn't have a problem. The people housed there are no more likely to offend than anyone else, and we have systems in place to process them efficiently and remove those who shouldn't be here. These systems are reducing the backlog such that we will phase out hotel use"
My timeline seems universally appalled and disappointed by what the current Labour party is doing. Good for you lot, young warriors. I clearly follow the right sort.
A forty minute falollop saw me right.
The new covers for The Jester Series are here! 😃 I'm so excited to share them. I feel they have the right level of sinister for this dark, dystopian sci-fi fantasy. And to celebrate they are on sale through the whole of September! books.bookfunnel.com... 💙📚👀📢📚
Rain stair-rodding and bright sun. Interesting weather.
I've hit an invisible wall. Time to falollop for a while. #OldManIsTired
That's a massive danger.
It gets worse- "Starmer is asked how he would feel if a hotel housing asylum seekers was at the end of his street. 'I completely get it,' Starmer says, adding: 'Local people by & large do not want these hotels in their towns, in their place, and nor do I. I'm completely at one with them on that.' "
