Awww thank you @southern_chick and please do contribute whenever you like, always nice to have all the input one can get and my little corner is a friendly place (well, I'm grumpy and cynical and probably a bad influence, but everyone else who contributes is lovely 😂)
And you are quite clearly not rubbish with cryptic crosswords, I've been furrowing my brow at that clue since Friday!
That's my thinking too @kayannie, we'll see if it's the setter's thinking tomorrow!0 -
I hear from other peoples diaries that some of you have had nice weather today; it's been pouring here, as is right and proper for a bank holiday Monday 😁

50 minute walk collecting a hairdryer from Olio, which means I don't have to spend money on a boring thing or waste a gift opportunity, hurrah
Big houseplant repotting session, the rabbit ear fern in particular looking resplendent and have got another plant from the tradescantia which is doing excellent dangling work despite having nothing to dangle from. Will make it a priority to find a proper space for it in new flat

There are such things as ‘mozzarella burgers’ ….? 🤔 <ears pr1ck up, interest is stimulated> 😉😊
We have had blazing hot sunshine followed by black skies with torrential downpours today, with no particular pattern to them … 😉

The mozzarella burgers are so good @KajiKita, SO good
I could technically get rid of two cups, but I'm so excited to be reunited with my stuff that's mostly in boxes in various locations that I'm being a terrible flat-mover and getting rid of nuffink, I'll have a responsible sort-out in one to two years when we have to move, or in one to two months when it becomes clear there is no space 😁2 -
I thought of you today when I was walking in my local area. Someone had left out what looked to be almost new baby bike type thing with a note saying free. I thought PIP would have that away and listed for sale in a flash 🤣I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)1
