Slightly foxed. Lancastrian. Obscurist. Goonatic. Beatle nut. Christian. Quondam and eventual jazz pianist, I hope. Massively over-sensitive. Kiboshed by Long Covid. Hobbies: leaning against the sideboard gasping for breath.

Itโ€™d work with peach halves. Makes a change from cobblers.

The only bag of Doritos ever to enter our house that ended up unfinished in the bin. Perfect example of just because you can doesnโ€™t mean you should.

Just wait until Face The Music, where even most of the teeth are beige.

Turns Classic FM off.

The car passed the MOT this morning, despite the ancient front tyres with treads drawn on with a Sharpie, so Iโ€™ll be avoiding sharp breakfast goods for the foreseeable. All good.

Itโ€™s Friday night, when whatever self-worth Iโ€™ve retained over the week evaporates. A good hangover and a fry-up resets the cycle.

Gingerbread Doritos.

Gingerbread Doritos.

The perfect example of โ€˜just because you can, doesnโ€™t mean you shouldโ€™. Still eating them with a large scotch and and a side of self-loathing.
