I actually remember the original by Barry Ryan but I think I prefer the Damned version #totp

I agree. If you want to go somewhere particular but don’t mind when, there’s no easy way to find the best deal.

Neither have we.

What about “ensue”?
I’m with you on the shoo ones but this seems different.

How disappointing. Those eggs are a disgrace. (Although I actually prefer my bacon like that!)

At least you’ll enjoy him smelling nice 😊

I’ve noticed that about several of the lunchtime episodes lately.
I think they must have been on loosened up but still distancing type rules.

I’m thinking that maybe if your list was broken down a bit into more detail, you’d get to tick off more completed actions (satisfying)
Or add them afterwards as TaDas and tick them off that way.
Enjoy your deserved rest.

Also when working in a school it’s unsettling when the new intake are the offspring of former pupils you remember as if they were there yesterday.

I understand your confusion. My eldest was 39 on Saturday yet I am still 46.

Think of it as a granola topping.

I read your “twoddle” and I think you should write your book, if only for your own enjoyment.

Also the criteria for a “disadvantaged community” needs to be revisited.
For example more help for geographically large but rural areas.

I was just wondering about Trull waterfall. Have you been to have a look?
