Sure, when the library does it it’s fine, but when somebody wants to borrow one of MY books and I ask for ID I’m being “ridiculous”

Excited to see this with @bikefit.bsky.social tonight

My new credit card has an expiry date of 2030 and I'm not okay

Look what I saw @garypanton.co.uk

I'm sick of the misogyny, Linda McMahon is not just Vince McMahon's wife, she is a lying sack of shit in her own right! Give women credit 💅🏻

Burst pipe flooded across high street.

Flood waters moving up high street.

We were up until 2am after a burst pipe flooded town. Opening late today as we need to put everything back after clearing floors. Thankfully no damage. Others weren't lucky.

If anyone is looking for a book you can order online at wonderlandbookshop.co.uk. Can't see what you want? Ask!
