OMG, A food stall has just opened on the beach at Dover!

Itโ€™s run by RNLI staff, and the food is completely free to anyone that arrives in a dingy in case theyโ€™re a bit โ€œpeckโ€ish after the crossing ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

Danny Kaye would have a field day with Trump. Imagine the songs from the film.

Can someone put me in touch with the lads who kept
rearranging the Fawlty Towers sign? They're badly needed here in my village.

Tonight Iโ€™ve made us this Risotto. (Donโ€™t worry @mrjamesob.bsky.social I was very careful ๐Ÿ˜‰).

Chicken with thyme and porcini mushrooms, and a drizzle of truffle oil. Iโ€™ve had the dried porcinis soaking in a mixture of wine and water all day to make the fantastic stock ๐Ÿ˜‹

๐Ÿฅน This Rex. Heโ€™s from the farm half a mile away. He comes up to see us almost every day. We gave him a good love up this morning and he left. 5 minutes later heโ€™d been home and brought back a toy for us to throw for him. Is that the cutest thing ever? ๐Ÿฅฐ

Sadly in Ireland we have the minimum price per alcohol unit thing going, which makes off license prices all a bit mad. Youโ€™ll struggle to get 4 cans if even a piss weak beer for less than โ‚ฌ8. The only downside. But thatโ€™s what the border at Strabane is for ๐Ÿ˜‰

Where else would you make friends with all the staff at the local recycling centre and get called by your first name when you dump the weekly rubbish ๐Ÿคท

Ireland is a great country full of wonderful people. We moved to Donegal from Yorkshire 4 years ago. Best thing we ever did. Iโ€™ve been all over the world but Iโ€™ve never experienced such friendliness as I have in Donegal.

I get jealous of Mrs Rโ€™s evening tea. I donโ€™t like tea, canโ€™t stand milk, and coffee keeps me awake. So I asked ChatGPT to make me a personalised drink based on my tastes, and it absolutely has. A spiced marmite and chilli thing. I โค๏ธ AI ๐Ÿ˜€
