Very think Dalek says "I've been on Ozempic." But it's a visual gag really, it's hopefully funnier than that description sounds.

Daleks cartoon in this week's Spectator.

Watercolour postcard of my mother's mantelpiece. There is a silver clock and weather station in the centre. To the left are 3 mugs, a red Angry Bird sits in one. To the right, are another 3 mugs and another Angry Bird. On the far RHS is a round black and white pen holder.

This is the closest I have. Two of my mother's Angry Birds on her mantelpiece. My mother is approaching 80 years old.

Watercolor painting of an Oceanic Whitetip Shark (Carcharhinus longimanus).

This was only my 3rd watercolor painting ever. I also went larger in format (18" x 24") than I normally do. This species is one of my favorites. I also loved adding in the Pilot Fish.

“There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will.” — Epictetus

Let me get out my tiny violin. 🎻

A young, white woman in a food bank warehouse puts food on a shelf. Text is on top that reads: 'Breaking news' with a headline from BBC news: 'UK inflation unexpectedly jumps to 3.6% as food prices rise again'.

❗ Millions are already facing hunger and hardship.

Rising food prices will only add more pressure to families who are struggling to put food on the table.

This isn't right. Everyone should be able to afford the essentials they need to survive and live with dignity 💚

A Lapwing stands alone at the edge of a choppy shoreline, long crest feathers trailing majestically in the breeze. It gazes out over the water, deep in mysterious thought.

Behold...the Lapwing of contemplation has appeared in your feed.

You're right. I'm just reading Private Eye. They seem to have a permanent correspondent up here. Other bodies barely get mentioned.

TVCA rejects Scrutiny Committee request to assess Ben Houchen appointments Previous Constitution was "unlawful"

NEW

TVCA has rejected calls to review Ben Houchen's appointment of his own successors at the region's development corporations on the grounds that its own constitution - and the rules he should have followed - were actually unlawful.

I'm thinking we should scrap the whole thing, and start again. Or, maybe just scrap the whole thing. 🙄

how would you rate some guy handing you something?

2 days later...

would you like to complete an in-depth survey on your experience of some guy handing you something?

It's bonkers isn't it? You have to rate everything. Why? Even the toilets at my local hospital, and the pharmacy have a 'Please rate us' board. It's mad.

My personal record is 14 emails in 5 days. Ebay - 3, delivery company - 3, vendor - 8. In the feedback, I gave seller communication 1 star.

A watercolour painting of a boat floating in the sea with a lot of white negative space. A pencil is next to the sketchbook to show scale.

From 9 years ago today. A small painting of a boat in Barmouth.

Low white blood cell count + sore throat = recipe for disaster.

Hence, I am wrapped up better than an Egyptian mummy. 🤧
