It’s a dirty job but somebody’s got to do it.
How do I get a job testing toys??? I’m a former HT granny. Perfect assessor. Employers head hunt me now.

A spoof newspaper headline reads woolly pom-poms will lead to the irreversible decline of the West

A little levity as you scroll….

This is horrific. I hope they are all prosecuted and jailed. Must have been terrifying.

That we know about. The tip of a grotesque and sustained iceberg of horror I fear.

A parent once told me she overheard her 8 yr old son happily telling his pals they were going on holiday to “ forty pound tuna” ( fuerteventura)

I learned years ago that my children could tell it was the holidays because “it’s the only time you baked every week”

Still makes me wince, thinking about it. Teaching generates a lot of collateral sacrifice.

Preparing to downsize so His Nibs has proposed reverting his office to a bedroom before putting house on the market.
Moreover he wants to share my office which requires removing 7 of my bookcases.
On paper this makes sense, in my heart however…

Image of sunrise just as dawn arrives. Sun yet to make an appearance but the colouration is dramatic in terms of yellow and orange but also off the scattered clouds giving an intense pink / purple tint. Foreground is a shining tarmac road wet from overnight rain which reflated intense colours. Middle distance there is a green field with silhouettes of telephone poles

I did a similar lesson on this once with 9 yr olds telling them there was a new rule that said right handed children couldn’t have a playtime.

Landing Light has been a favourite of mine for decades. So emotive. So well crafted.

Scotland thanks you Ms Parker

Was it ever really in any doubt? 😢

Once again, proof that billionaires are husks of humanity - hollowed out by limitless greed, frothing racism and colossal ego.

Went into the “fancy” spare room and rediscovered lots of books on the shelves which meant I lost 3 hours browsing and sampling.
Downsizing is going to be VERRRRRRRY tricky. His Nibs may be relegated to a tent so I can keep all my lovely books.

And meanwhile the survivors remain relegated to the shadows, an inconvenient disruption in the lives of powerful and odious people. Barely an afterthought in media coverage as they continue to wait for justice.

Identify suspects, prosecute, incarcerate and attempt to compensate.

According to the 5 yr old I am even more beautiful than Mulan.

I’ll take that.

I’ve often admired the Hobbity model. Good luck with the offer. We’re pondering a downsize to bungalow life. Maybe I should try to combine the two…love a round door me.

Share this everywhere. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

a brown wire-haired pup stands on a wooden deck in a grassy yard. he looks at us with golden eyes and his right ear flipped inside out. he has a pipe-shaped stick in his mouth, giving him the appearance of a sophisticated and dapper gentleman. just give him a deerstalker cap and a cloak, and he'd give Sherlock Holmes a run for his money.

This pup found a stick shaped like an old timey pipe earlier today and has already solved three mysteries. 13/10
