Oops…

My top read of 2025 so far..
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Absolutely devastating story of British colonialism, inspired by a photograph the author saw at the NPG. Dual narrative & timelines that intertwine. Heartbreaking yet tender. Such an important read, what a journey that was! 😮‍💨

Oh.. 🫠

My dearly departed mum wouldn’t have dared complain or they’d likely be thrown at HER! #truestory
I witnessed her graciously accept (and even seem excited for!) her first upright vacuum cleaner & the legendary set of saucepans that most 70s housewives appear to have been given as gifts 🙂‍↔️🙄

Apparently he does!! Likes his dinner ready when he walks through the door too…

Looks delicious 🤤 although the word ‘grey’ somehow taints it a little 🫣

Please can we quit the autumn talk!! Shops full of plastic dead leaves & Halloween death symbolism.
IT’S STILL SUMMER!! ☀️☀️☀️☀️
So stick your pumpkin where the sun don’t shine.. 😮‍💨🫠
Autumn & winter is sooooo long..

Garden goals!! Absolutely beautiful

I need to replace my decking.. 😥🫣

Wow!! Epic photo 📸

Ditto!! I used to suffer from insomnia, nowadays I sleep soundly apart from loo visits aplenty. But not last night! I must’ve done at some point though cos dreamt I bleached a friend’s brown hair bright yellow with bleach. She hated it. Was an awful scenario, can’t shift the memory 🫣

Mantra! Happy Saturday Leila 🥰

That’s good, I’m glad you did! 🤞🏽you’re seen asap!

Oh God! I hope the antihistamine helps. I’d see someone if no better in 24 hours, just to play safe. Heal quickly love! ❤️‍🩹

I know right?! 🤯

Some shitty doll she chose in B&M! It bounces; chuckles; cries, and didn’t appear to have an off switch 😰

Took granddaughter (5) to buy her sister (about to turn to turn 3) a birthday present. She chose it, she wrapped it, she wrote her own name on the back of the envelope & stuck it on b2f, & I have to spend my life with this until the big day 🫠

When uninspired by TV I choose from the @amazonprime.bsky.social ‘leaving soon’ list.
Tonight I watched Destination Wedding. Keanu Reeves & Winona Ryder deliver a duologue and, contrary to reviewers’ opinions it seems, I thought it was bloody brilliant! Ingenious, awkward & at times plain stoopid 👌🏽
