Realizing so many people have names for local blackbirds and their girlfriends. Ours are Bonnie and Bonnieโ€™s Boyfriend.

A photo of the interior of a 1700s man made crystal grotto folly. A hint of sunlight. Two Pokemon toys (sharpest and bulbasaur) are looking at a sign that says Stalactite loose please do not touch

Itโ€™s inadvertently been great tagging a trip to Painshill Park on after the Soane visit. Such a strange era.

On the plus side, Timpsons have - for once -confirmed they are able to reheel my boots. Quite the novelty vs โ€˜We donโ€™t do keys. Or shoes.โ€™ It will however take 3 days and cost ยฃ35.

Ngl part of the reason why my child bonded so resoundingly with the museum today was that I told her that John Soane curated all his shit the same way she curates her plushies.

We have also dropped a stupid amount of ยฃยฃ on scandikitchen pick and mix but that means we are now very very ready for Melodifestivalen this evening (I was not allowed my impulse buy flight to Malmo)

A view in the John Soane museum from behind his bust looking toward a Roman statue. Four arches. Glass dome above casting light down. Lots of pots. Lots of Roman and other classy shite. People suitably boggled.

Do love the chaos. Which apparently is not chaos.

Very rude of the Andrew allegations to keep coming out after the royal family have drawn a line under them.

New era: scared of screaming flowers, light changes, and desperate to go to the Netherlands (yeah yeah plus amazing storytelling/characterization). Much fun.

Kiddo is doing his first solo flight today - had absolutely zero idea where he was going when he got to Dublin except 'I think it's going to take two buses'. No address, no nothing. My epic aunty is now swooping in to the rescue phew.

screengrab from amazon prime (sorry) of three VERY EVIL ROBOT TEACHERS from the stone cold classic Class of 1999. Malcolm McDowell, Pam Grier. EVIL ROBOT TEACHERS. What more could you want. To be fair to alt text spirit, an old grumpy teacher in a beanie in a hat, Pam Grier in the centre looking 90s and beautiful and evil, and an obvious lump of a PE teacher in a futeristing check grey suit with no lapels cos it's the future. They are walking in front of a dystopian chainlink fence. The text says 'The time is in the future and the youth gang violence is so high that the areas around some schools will have become "free-fire zones" into which not even the police will venture. When Miles Langford, the he...' It's only a 15. Horror, Science Fiction. IMDB rating 5.9/10 (harsh)

It's our ahem somethingth anniversary this weekend so we are planning on celebrating as we first bonded with Chinese take out and - along with an appreciation of Clive Barker - a rewatch of the timeless classic that confirmed we were meant for each other
