Well, I've got a date for my driving course, and it's the first two weeks of June, ie pretty much the most inconvenient time it could be which isn't actually a school holiday. OH WELL.

And all the debates over it took up a ton of council time which could have been used for other things!

My mum is visiting! She brought Tiny Dragon a little calendar. TD greatly admired it & took it off to a corner... where she looked carefully through it and then started cutting out her favourite animals bcos she gets the old calenders to cut up and we all failed to explain this was a CURRENT one πŸ˜‚πŸ₯°

"Mummy, what's bait?"

*general concept is explained, using as examples fish/worms, ducks/bread, 5yo/chocolate*

"So if you wanted to get one of my friends to come over, you could use me as bait?"

"... πŸ’€"

I'm already writing an email to the college in case they find it on a roof tomorrow!

I've had an entire bike stolen, but never a helmet before! It was 7 years old, at least

I'm so annoyed. Given statistics for random theft, it probably doesn't even fit them!

They did not steal my drink bottle, which is pink and flowery because I thought that was honestly less likely to be nicked, and the lights are wired in, so honestly I wouldn't be surprised if they took the helmet out of spite and booted it into a hedge πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

I don't lock my panniers because I prefer to show there's nothing valuable in there, other than my helmet of course (they left my bungee straps and tool kit πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ) Such a stupid thing to steal.

Someone stole my bike helmet while I was at my pottery evening class! 😑 Took it out of my pannier.

Went to the school cake sale and Tiny Dragon went straight to buy back the cakes she'd made and donated.

When I hear "writing retreat" I think of, like, the lake district πŸ˜‚

I might need to read this. I've currently been binging Mayday Air Disasters on YouTube and the vibes seem very similar

All my current sewing machines I bought on Facebook marketplace from people who had bought a fancy machine but were too intimidated to ever use it, so I know those people are definitely out there!

In biking distance, obviously, but I'm happily out fairly late or whatever.

I'd love to get more into teaching again, I miss it!

Could also do "make friends with your overlocker" and "make friends with stretch fabric". I know lots of people own machines they aren't comfortable using!

I'm considering offering 1:1 "make friends with your sewing machine" lessons where I go to a person's house for a couple of hours and bring supplies to do a basic little project.
