Unparalleled Master of the Typo. I never owned a Barbie. There! I’ve said it.

I am. And hoping that it gives me enough time. 1 August Edinburgh is looking increasingly unlikely.

Oh, I hope you’re well by then!! You don’t want to miss concerts! I’m heartbroken to have missed this whole Keane20 tour (so far? I refuse to give up hope of still catching them at some point…) Keeping fingers crossed for you 🤞🤞🤞

Oh gosh!! That sounds awful! Three weeks 😱 I hope you heal quickly and that the pain is manageable. *HUG* I hear you about the showering. I had the same. After every stage of getting washed and dressed I had to lie down on the bed until I’d recovered. 😂 Take care 😘

When you’re used to sharing your home with a cat, it just feels so empty without them…

I just found an unopened jigsaw in my archive. At least 15 years old! Btw, should you be looking for a cat approved jigsaw, Ravensburger seems to be the way to go. After completely ignoring the past three jigsaws, this one is seemingly irresistible.

With all the rain we’ve been having there’s an overabundance of molluscs. I’m sure the robin doesn’t begrudge you a few tiny ones…

My buffalo jigsaw was rolled up while I was in hospital and seems to have fallen mostly apart 😢

I’ve another from the same maker that I’ve had for a while and not opened yet. And after that I’ll go comb through my archive, see what challenges I can find 😂

It always reminds me of Ann-Margret using a nail file to file down the jigsaw pieces to fit 😂

These two, and the one second from the far right corner seem a bit wonky. Or it’s just a bad fitting puzzle (which I *hate*!)

Instead of trying to do your jigsaw long distance, I thought I should unroll and try to finish my own! 😂

I thought at first it was your birthday and was rather surprised at the trampoline park. Though on reflection, why not? 🤷‍♀️ Happy birthday 9 year old! 🎈

I’m not sure that Mr Collins is the authority you should be appealing to when seeking to comprehend the female psyche!

my fave continues to be -- if you were handed $1000 every single day, every single year since AD 1 and saved every single penny of it, you still wouldn't be a billionaire.

ATM the very thought of chocolate makes me nauseous. A colleague sent me an Easter special slab of lemon flavoured Tony’s Chocolate from Germany. It’s hidden away in the furthest, darkest corner of the kitchen cabinets. Dawn’s chocolate is safe from me for at least a couple of months…

Do you keep your puzzles, or get rid of them once you’ve completed them? I’ve several 6000 piece jigsaws I’ll never be able to make again, dating back to the days when I made them on the floor. But still they’ve moved house with me several times… 🙁

Mother Very Thoughtfully Made a Jelly Sandwich Under No Protest has been my go-to since the early 70s. It’s out of date, but I just have to remember that the Protest is now no longer relevant.

When I say the BBC was all we had, we had about 25 other channels but only two British channels, BBC 1 and 2, and that’s more or less all we ever watched. Until this very day. BBC and now various streaming services.
