The wife is right.
Retired psychiatrist, recent BA in Fine Art. Will randomly post about art, gardening, nature, #thearchers, bees, Parkrun and no doubt other things.

The wife is right.
Argyle sweaters or socks will be in there somewhere.
We need more info on money matters in #thearchers. Who is on min wage? How does the money work when contract farming and how much is it?
That’s gen Z. As in zed.
What is special about “Leicestershire cheese”?
You have described perfectly the Faragiste Gammonocracy currently despoiling large areas of the country. They’re in for a shock.
Then you’re totally trapped in a small space with the antisocial idiot making work calls on speaker and watching some footy match in between.
This is an amusing fess ruined by the endless nerdy unfunny comments about a small typo which totally miss the humour in the original.
I can’t understand how 37% of current 16/17 yo support reform or the Tories. Who are these misguided teens?
It does look tired. Gloucester services, their other outlet on the other hand, is really good.
Bit of a theme for this bloke.
Are they twins too?
I think you’ll find that is integral to the word “opinion”.
Would that be at the beginning of a long sweaty shift or the end?
You can have the satisfaction of knowing all that fat is going straight to their coronary arteries until Bang, an MI.
There’s more likely to be something in that than the tattoo thing. It’s better for men to be attracted to women who look like they’ve gone through puberty.
“A random woman”
I wondered how many responses there would be before we were earnestly begged to buy recyclable ones made of straw and thistles. Yeah ok but they are mostly air and they don’t go to landfill they get incinerated.
The character as played makes it sound not creepy but IRL? #thearchers
A man in his 50s/60s asking a couple of teens for dating advice is pretty creepy. #thearchers
Also 2m spiked steel fencing all round the boundary.
Fair bet that the plastic wrapping was covered with warnings not to plunge a knife into the mattress.
In other words he returns to his previous role for which he seems eminently qualified. At which point Brine starts undermining him by suggesting aeronautical engineer Alice would be ideal for the job. #thearchers
Ian has some nebulous role which doesn’t involve him having to get his hands dirty in the kitchen at all. #thearchers
All this from Gawge is to get back in Fallon’s good books. He’s gonna turn stalky when a) Amber dumps him because he’s a lowlife nothing, or b) he realises how vacuous she is in comparison to her. #thearchers
Not quite the same in a prison context as a similar seeming word I learnt yesterday: daggering. Don’t look it up on a work phone. #thearchers
So nothing untoward will happen to Gawge by inserting himself into a feud between 2 serious crims. #thearchers
She’s only requiring that her employee attends work. #thearchers
“Actual post with an actual stamp.” #thearchers
Enjoying semi-retirement presumably. #thearchers
The responses here disagreeing with this largely remain polite. I don’t suppose they are in the Other Place.
He lives in Essex. It’s in the water.
It’s also a good behavioural inoculation against getting over obsessive about recycling.
Medico-legal lawyers always tried to scare the shit out of us in CPD sessions by saying if you didn’t write what you said in the notes it didn’t happen, when you later appear before the judge. As if you can manually transcribe an entire consultation in the 5 minutes before the next patient.
I’d report her to the GMC.
Relax. She’ll never know.
You trying to make us jealous by veiled allusions to the sail effect?
It’s this summer’s silly season story, filler for when the real journos bog off to Tuscany in August. But at least they aren’t rioting and setting light to hotels, so the govt can remain chilled about it.
This opinion would be useful if it specified how many is too many.
Who gives “dinner parties” nowadays?
They are not benign. They convert the bridge railings into heaps of rusting scrap metal which occasionally threaten the structures with their combined weight. A visual eyesore and a maintenance nightmare.
Actually they usually cry “House are homeless first.”
Superb take by @billybragg.bsky.social on the flags over on Instagram.
This is the hope. #thearchers
Chels may not know there are reasons for Henwee not to want to clatter women with a flying hard object. #thearchers
This is seriously how public statues should be treated. Set a use by date, then move them to a museum where their grim imperial secrets can be explained fully.
“Don’t like mixing flavours and textures.” What are you, 7?
If only there was the back of a wardrobe where you could hang clothes with emotional memories and where they can stay for as long as is necessary.
My Dad’s last lucid moment during his terminal illness was asking who won the Tory leadership race. When I told him it was Boris Johnson I think he felt all his years as a Labour politician had come to nothing. He slipped into a torpor and died about 10 days later.
Yes dear. Now take your tablets and have an early night.
Not really convinced by Gibbo’s recent transformation into a right on feminist ally. #thearchers
That would be surprising as most of them go to drama school and take up comedy as a side hustle.
Nedbed wants a word.
Yes.
Why is Philip Larkin operating the control desk?
It sort of looked like a military style suit though.
Well no, it wouldn’t. #thearchers
All roads lead to Bath! Except the Worcester Bath Road which leads to Bristol.
Everywhere seems to have a Bath Road. #thearchers
Well this is a one step removed silent. Not only silent but dead. #thearchers
Carpet dumping Fallon by text? #thearchers
This is weird, the dynamic between Jazzer’n’Trace and his boss. #thearchers
I’m loving this worldly wisdom from Brad. He’s growing up fast. He will be ready for a postgrad degree at a better university away from home. #thearchers
We saw the national finals of the Young Farmers tug o’ war at Tenbury show the other week. Boys’, girls’, mixed teams from all over the country. Very exciting and great to see teenage girls enjoying their strength rather than being drawn into screen based self absorption. #thearchers
Too late for that. They knew what they were getting.
I can’t be held responsible if the meat scraps I leave out in front of the trailcam for the wildlife get scoffed by all the neighbourhood cats.
This is performance art. You need to video yourself doing it.
Extra points if you managed to ruin their businesses just before they were due to sell to fund their pension pot.
Definite red flag. OTOH the care staff who probably wrote the board will probably be minimum wage workers without your level of educational capital and privilege but may be brilliant with the residents. So there’s that.
Left handed, I wear my watch on my left wrist.
This fess isn’t finished. We need to know the consequences.
I never answer a call whose number is not in my contacts. If it’s important they’ll leave a message, if they don’t it’s either a cold call or a scam.
This is not the win you think it is. Fruit and nut chocolate is disgusting.
It’s not a question of being glib, just what we’ve all grown up with and accept as normal. And we are talking about the UK because this is a UK based account.
I’ve learnt something today, that Jupiter has a solid core. So essentially what we see is a massively thick atmosphere of gas trying to convey the impression that it’s a vast planet.
Wouldn’t it be great if there was a national health service paid for by taxes which positively encourages free take up of any vaxes going? (There is btw)
Why on earth are you taking such an interest in your cleaner’s weight?
Would be more impressive if you got off your knees and told him he can’t actually use your en-suite, he has to use the main bathroom.
He/she wasn’t complaining about people buying new cars, just saying they are mugs. The world needs mugs and there are plenty around.
“High end- no gristle.” Line of the week. #thearchers (©️@oedipusscat.bsky.social)
I think that was money changers. However if the shop includes a post office (I’ve forgotten) you can certainly change your money there. #thearchers
“That’s not how we do things in the countryside.” #thearchers
Shock as shop manager discovers that occupying a building incurs costs. #thearchers
Land use should be priced by the acreage required.
Everybody is talking about Debbie, who won’t be returning because the actor won’t want to go back to a regular slot, yet the obvious qualified candidate is Adoom. #thearchers
If only there was a qualified and experienced farm manager in the Aldridge family and actually in Ambridge who could step into Stella’s shoes. #thearchers
Exactly.
It’s a long time since I thought of Fanny. I had their album Mother’s Pride when it was released.
Concerned at the anti Northern bias shown by people objecting to the concept of mashing the tea.
Me too.
It’s a bit of an assumption, that the fesser is a man. Nowhere in the post does it say that.
They would need to sanction what happens in their premises. #thearchers
Soozan’s first sale in the church: 5 loaves and 2 fishes. #thearchers
Go to it Alan. #thearchers
And all presumably on Equity rates as well. #thearchers
Not buying this. Teens don’t do breakfast, especially bread rather than ultra high processed energy bars. #thearchers
Great Malvern.
The worst is if they get a whiff of money in the will. Then they can seriously hassle the recently bereaved.
Unlikely.
