The cats have told me they have no food.
They have done this by way eating all of the chicken out of the curry I made earlier and had portioned out on the side to cool.
14 years ago they ate the remains of a vindaloo and caused sofaruiningshitfest. My taste in curry spice has not decreased. Oh dear.

I'm not sure I have it in me to find out if we can get any better in this tournament. I think, yes I'm pretty sure, I'm not going to bother watching the rest of it (especially if we're on ITV)

Quite the opposite. Just been smashed and feeling like shit, but still takes the time to engage with the fans.
Bravo to him.

I do find it slightly interesting that purchases I've made on my card today are showing on my Barclays account, but my wages that have left my employers account are not.
This is going to get costly for Barclays. Fun times ahead with bill day tomorrow

Wages have been paid, the money has left my employers account, but no sign of them in my Barclays account. Regretting paying the entirety of my tax bill yesterday, especially now that I have no money in my account and a load of bills about to come out. Exciting (read ragefull) times ahead methinks

What was the reference?

Jesus fucking wept.
Actually I don't know about Jesus, he's a bit of composite make believe, but I certainly wept at this

The problem with bsky? Not enough opposing views. It is (but won't remain) an echo chamber.
Sometimes you just need a proper cunt to make the conversation work.

My cats would rather sleep on the hard wood floor next to, rather than in, any cat bed. Cost me a bloody fortune in the first few years.

Just dropped the little dictator off after 5 lovely days. Won't see him now until Monday. Despite not talking about it, he knew as he always does, that he wouldn't be coming 'home' tonight. He's very sad, but he left his cherished comfy on the drivers seat to make me feel better. 3 year old legend.

I also thing the reasons given for this ban are nonsense. These bans aren't going to help the NHS in any way, shape, or form now. It will, many years from now, but we'll be 20 years older then.
That's performative nonsense.

I was in favour of Sunaks effective (slow) gradual plan of 100% ban on cigarettes.
I'm not in favour of banning it in the pub garden.
Probably because I like the pub, and smoking whilst I am at the pub.
I think this will probably stop people going to the pub, rather than stopping them smoking.

Granted I was a bit older at 19, but I thought it was obvious he was dead, too.

My cat only responds to spspspspsps, and is completely perplexed by your proposal

Oh, you were about to do something, but their need for sleep has meant that you now suddenly have a conundrum about what to do, and in all likelihood a bit of spare time to spend aimlessly on social media, as you can't just leave them there like that. Parenthood, who would?

Just pointing out that I have a beautiful and fast car that has no 'zaust' pipes. So not everyone's doing it

As an owner of facial hair that can become a beard, not sure how this would work.
I mean, it would take hours, if not days, to pluck them all

4.8m/kWh is less than 1500 miles, just saying.
306kwh is about Β£250 in UK of on the road fast charging.
It's about Β£200 in diesel for the same journey

No, "scan as you shop".
Oh, you've packed everything neatly in your bags, but I need to scan 35 of your 68 items to make sure you're not a thief, so I'm going to throw them all over the trolley as I do so.
That's the end of civilisation, and my tether.

Got rid of another 4 bags of rubbish in operation 'clear house after divorce', built the boys pedal bike. Endured the meltdown after telling him we couldn't go to the park to ride said none as it was pissing* down (*raining very heavily), got jumped all over to various crazy frog songs as penance.

He's just fallen out of bed, taken the two safety pillows with him, the duvet, the water on the side table, and knocked over the bin.
Tried to carry him to his own bed, and a massive meltdown occurred.
Turned around and took him back to my bed and he's just gone straight back to sleep.

My three year old has already figured out that my 'bits' will deliver an at least equally effective reaction.
He's also figured out that said reaction will also stop certain things in their tracks, like washing of his hair at shower time.

Had my boy since Friday afternoon, just realised that I've not needed to charge my phone since Friday night.
Happily had better things to do then look at my screen.
Unhappily, he's decided he's sleeping in my bed, & of all the options available for me, a shit night sleep is inevitable

My favourite thing about this #xitter term, is that it's slightly derisory in tone, and also when said out loud, is pronounced the same as that northern tin pot shithole town, exeter

Trouble awaits that way. Double trouble for most of us, what with not being called Gareth and all.

If only I could sleep at night the way I sleep for those magical 9 minutes of intensely deep sleep known as 'snooze'
