West Country widow. Trying to keep the ranting down and the positive energy up. LDB means late dearly beloved.

It’s lovely outside in the sunshine although there’s a hint of late summer feeling in the air.

Really nice to hear Mark Mardell back on #BBCRdio4, and sounding much the same as ever.

He said something about, please no penalties or extra time goals to save people's nerves and stress. It sounds like a joke, but it's being reported in solemn tones. Maybe the last 14 years has removed irony as a default setting for reporters.

The BBC is reporting the King's message about football with all due solemnity, as if it was some kind of command instead of, by the sound of it, a light-hearted comment. #SenseOfHumourFailure

I'm assuming that Gareth Southgate is now the best thing ever to happen to football, and any media suggestions that he should be tarred, feathered, and sacked were mere aberrations that never actually happened. #sardonic #morningcoffee.

Actually I have very fond memories of the RM Beating the Retreat. Partially, I have to confess, because,usually,drink was taken. I do sometimes miss the days of being a Navy wife. 😏

Me, I’m strongly in favour of Onson Swig thingy… wotsit… and Rey whoever. Great team. Bound to regain the Ashes. Or possibly win the Derby. Or something.

It is awkward. The weather tomorrow is forecast to be somewhat better but, unless the graduation is in London, it probably won't be too hot.

Something respectable in which you feel good, but that won't, as people used to say, frighten the horses. Or new graduates, in this case. Enjoy the day. :)

The rain has stopped, finally, so I tried once again to sit out, but the fencing is still going on and has reached the hedge (stock-proof) opposite the garden. Money to burn and not the wit to know what to do with it.

Many so-called Christians in the US seem to perceive the religion on a pre-Reformation basis, i.e. that true Christianity is reserved for those with power and influence and riches, and the more of those one has, the more Christian one is.

Weather wise, it looks like another foully wet day, although at least it's warmer. Somewhat gloomy #morningcoffee.

Look, people. We live in the UK. It rains. A lot. Why don’t we all have verandas we can sit under? I’m thinking of standing in the next election for the Veranda Party. If I live that long.

@siamesecaroline.bsky.social Tbf they are there for government service work for a couple of years, and will then have to go somewhere else. And it is extremely expensive to live there. But still green with envy.

The next house I buy, I’m definitely going to have a veranda installed, so that I can sit outside even if it’s raining. Next door neighbours are back for the “summer” from the Bahamas. That’ll larn ‘em! 😂

I can reveal that Morrisons have dumbed down/shrinkflated their fish cakes by cutting down on the fish and massively increasing the pepper.

6yo has been telling me about his new friend he wants to invite over for tea. Apparently he had to wear, “special crocs,” and can’t have drinks that aren’t water because, “he goes goblin mode.”

It would be both funny and heartwarming if D&C Police managed to nail the dreadful Taits for tax evasion rather than all their alleged rapes etc. Shades of Al Capone.

It is a circle that needs squaring quickly, though goodness knows how. At least with this government we have some hope of competence and a willingness to look at the problem in the round without shrugging and handing out billions to donors to fail utterly in providing solutions.

Probably, yes. But office buildings need quite a lot of renodelling before suitability as homes is possible, and developers seem to prefer to build more and more student flats!

I’ve taken the last of my coffee outside to sit for a while, but am not sure how long I’ll stay here because it’s quite cold and damp. So what I need to know is, when can we start blaming the Govt for the weather?

What worries me about Labour's plans for house building is that the developers will walk away with the profits, and the houses they build will continue to be unsustainable, of poor quality, and unrelated to the needs of most people.

When did nursing homes turn into care homes without any nursing aspect? Because, surely, if people are bed-blocking in hospital, that's when we need nursing homes.

Ten minutes ago I was sitting outside in the sunshine. I escaped indoors to dry my hair, and while I was doing so, the rain came down heavily.
