Interests in no particular order: Guinea pigs, storks, hedgehogs, Genesis, Beatles, F1, things mechanical. Late diagnosis for ASD, which has been... interesting. https://planetsi.com

Fabulous. I just recently found some episodes in the depths of iPlayer - and do remember watching them in period.

I always say after losing a pig (last year was not good) β€œNo more” - but it never seems to happen - and I think they choose us, expertly guiding us to their profile or advert.

She’s a cutie. Can’t believe a shelter split a bonded pair, I bet they had lots of rules for adopters too.
And we all have our favourites however hard we try not to!

Be interesting to see how much this will give drivers more scope to play with pedal feel.

Is it true that Amazon will give you a reduction if you add Melania tickets to your order? I think we should be told.

Bowl tipping is an art that should be encouraged! Bravo!

The boys looking a little like rock stars. Plump Floyd, perhaps. (They are, in the words of their greatest fan, satisfyingly plump) #guineapigs #plump

Brilliant: you let Google read all your private data whilst paying them for the privilege.

I try not to criticise car makers for erm, evolving but when you see something like this, you can see why it happens!
Proper job.
