Mostly happy. I probably don’t know half of what’s going on.

I enjoyed it. But I’m not too critical of stuff, tend to just go with the flow.

This is when I find Australian BlueSky very helpful. They’re all insomniacs down there - most of them stay up all night and go to sleep when it’s day for us. Really nice people mostly too.

The Thursday Murder Club is excellent. I’d read the books before watching the film if you can.

We bought it ages ago and added it to our “to be read” pile.

Only found it again at the start of this week.

We saw him at Kew - genuinely a nice person.

Our iron broke - wasn’t getting hot - so got a new one. It’s really good. Tried it out tonight.

Maybe they could add a timer to the bike racks against each bike so the villains will know which bikes can be stolen with impunity?

Well got back from vacation to be laid off in a cost cutting move. So if anyone has any job leads in the content writing/editing/online teaching worlds, would be grateful

Does anyone else think there’s a bug in Strands?

I’ve got the spangram left to find and there’s only one way I can put the letters together and it keeps saying “not in word list”.

Saw #DerekJacobi this evening.

An absolute privilege to hear him talk about his wonderful life and many roles, interviewed by his partner Richard Clifford. Great sincerity, great warmth and an instant connection to the audience. A remarkable career from humble beginnings.

Our iron has decided it’s had enough.

We need a replacement cordless with an easy-to-view water-level.

You did wonders on toaster recommendations BlueSkyers - can you recommend a decent iron? Ideally suitable for synchronised ironing and al-fresco ironing.

One tree fern. But not Fearne Cotton.

Seen in the green Blue Mountains near the foggy Three Sisters at Scenicworld - does what it says on the tin.
