Oh we've a few of those vultures!
Never had a cat that could catch one, don't know why they take forever to get airborne

Fucking hell, it's 24° outside our bedroom.
Next summer I'm getting an ice pack lined hammock.

in case you don't know

Had to find the dvd, and reinstall. Except it wouldn't while the corrupted file was there. Can't delete the corrupted file and had to rename it 🙄

We have masses of goldfinches, and lots of more exotic types, never see an ordinary pigeon!

Excellent!

The drive's being redone, it runs the full length of the front garden & house, we want to be out the days they do that - the noise would drive me spare, we can't leave them alone with that upset so early.
He had said have a holiday before we get them, but not happening.

@wozwoz.bsky.social having trouble getting Mark to read the Crescent City series. He's started, but he doesn't like Bryce. I didn't either but you pushed me to read it, and although I still disliked her laddette-ishness I thought the story was great and couldn't put it down.

Mid October for driveway and garage roof replacement.
When will I get kittens!

Robin's sounding so wistful, he knows the best part of the year is over.
Only 7 months until March, she said depressed.

Ugh, plug in DVD drives! Got a lead about 8cm long 😖 And the DVD I've got Office 2003 on has nowt written on it, which way up - FFS Rich! You could have written on it 🤦🏻
Oh well, all happy again, and it's picked up my settings, phew. I can print the tower section off.
And open the wine.

Had a windows update, now my Publisher 2003 is fucked

Can imagine my teachers "if you'd applied yourself to Biology* as well as you are doing dungeons & dragons, you could have gone far".

*insert subject here.

Yes that is a goose, so what!

There's 2 of us, and a lot of veg! The garden is guzzling water in this dry weather. We have a meter so will see what we actually use.
I don't mind paying for it, I do mind that I'm paying for their awful management while ex-CEOs are pissing themselves laughing in a tax haven.

To The NW-ish Area Mercenary Division of Salty Snacks.

I hope they leave the Island of San Seriffe alone 😱

Ooh yum (briefly thought you'd been made a baron 🤭)

Oh my 😱 better nip out for caviar & champagne

Are they sending a car!

How exciting! You'll be getting a new frock, shiny shoes, having your hair and nails done, and a full body wax (obviously).

😞 poor mum, and poor little things you have found, they must miss their family. But they're going to have happy healthy lives now.

Who needs cirque de soleil when you've got blue tits in the garden, little show offs.

Been a good year for sparrows, ours have multiplied mahoosively. I love em.

Cool!
The pencil I use for baking paper's not been sharpened in years! But then the blunter the better.

Our latest bill's £66 ffs

Often wondered why I kept my old pencil case, now I know! D&D's so old school; I clean the rubber, sharpen pencils with a sharpener that's 50+ years old. Old ruled books are being eaten up, file paper's dug out and passed around.
Bloody hell it's weird for a person wedded to her computer.

Our water bill's gone up £30/month
Fuck you South West Water, get your ex-bosses to pay back the money they stole.

Our beans aren't selling this year. Normally the shop takes them (100g £1) and they vanish 🤔

Supposed to be a light cloud with spells day, it's relentlessly grey. We've a whopping 0.6kw coming off the roof 🙄

Too busy pouring shit into our tourist beaches
