I'm calling today's look "slightly consumptive faerie who definitely isn't poisonous"
Went to the Farne Islands today, didn't give into ancestral instincts & raid the church, did give into some & sang on the boat back. Saw many birb, puffins! Seals! Forgot the English word for "gannet" but remembered the Gaelic "guga" (strictly that's juveniles but close enough).
Can confirm the Lego sea otter is even more adorable in person than it looks. I cannot this otter. Too cute.
Breakfast of champions. I have an onion hangover* & feel like death, & I have a 4hr drive ahead of me. *Mounjaro has made it so more than a smol amount of onion makes me super ill the next day, I do not always remember this.
Bore da o Llanrwst, ar lan ir afon Conwy. Currently waiting on brunch & a pot of tea, looking forward to my book.
This is Pablo, he belongs to my neighbour, & I foolishly said I'd look after him for a few hours. Well, my days of swearing I'd never own a spaniel are certainly coming to a middle... I've just handed him back to his owner & I am *wiped*
Had to go out to run some errands, despite the fact it's hot as a really hot thing. Yes the fan came with me. I've never worn a crop top in public before, but I currently give *zero* fucks.
My local curio shop always has the best curséd items for sale.
There's a Voyager arcade cabinet up for sale in the Netherlands, sadly not working, but see if I had silly money, this is the shot is be spending it on. www.the-saleroom.com/en-gb/auctio...
Absolutely dying over this cushion. The expression, the roundness, the wee feets... Crying laughing. www.vinted.co.uk/items/904233...
See if this was £20, instead of £35, I'd have bought it already. Incredible. www.vinted.co.uk/items/902490...
Had to go up to the Cathedral today, & I tragically tripped & fell face first into some gelato & a pizza portafoglio from our resident Neopolitan gelatoria "Belli e Brutti". Such hardship, woe etc. I don't think I'm going to need an evening meal, I'll tell thee that much.
Naturally, being a Chadsian*, I'm obliged to never hand it to Castle. However, it fair does my heart proud when they fly the progress pride flag in May/June. * I'm a member of St Chad's College, which is next door but one.
Okay folks, I need help with my knob placement... Which do you prefer? Knobs in the middle to match the bottom ones, or knobs lower down?
Cheap knock-off "Donatello" isn't real and can't hurt you... I love the contrast between the presumably official merch, & the one yer uncle got from a bloke down the market for your birthday cos he remembered you liked "that king fu tortoise cartoon"
I have a big mug of tea, & ~1.5kg of freshly picked wild garlic to sort for pesto, let's go girls.
Call me a nit-picking historian, bit I think this film might not be historically accurate...
The temptation to buy this, do a dramatic reading, & live stream myself reacting, as a Celticist, is *high*. I mean just look at that cover art... www.vinted.co.uk/items/884645...
Therapist: Holo-Jako isn't real & can't hurt you... Holo-Jako: .... www.vinted.co.uk/items/881196...
Yes, I'm a day late, but I was very unwell yesterday, so it's flowr crown time!
The becons are lit! Gondor for aid! Oh no, it's just a ghostly pale Celtic/Scandi type sitting in full sun after a long winter. Before anyone says anything, I am *slathered* in factor 50, & I have a crippling vitamin D deficiency, I need this. www.tumblr.com/thepigeongaz...
People wot live near Reading, some friends of mine are hoping to create a community owned pub. It will be community owned, queer managed & explicitly trans friendly. They need investors, would you like to chuck some money at this project? www.thecastletapcic.co.uk
