Middle-aged, middle-sized, recovering Gen X workaholic, ARMY, OT7, INFJ, PTID, embarrassing parent, Archers Listener. Truly I am Everywoman. Also jazz. And cats. And yelling at the Today programme. If I don’t know you, don’t DM me.
Missy cares nothing for #internationalcatday but I did have a lovely cat chat and pic exchange with some Korean stallholders earlier. Which is pretty international
Was curious about how far back the Wayback machine went. Searched for something I built in 1998 and found it. @iainthomson.bsky.social wrote a large chunk of this. I coded it. By hand.
Waiting inside the very gorgeous Caird Hall for Abertay Graduation. Organist is playing “Africa” by Toto. Congratulations to all Abertay grads and post grads. Especially my little girl and her mates
My mum’s cat’s name is Daphne and she despises all of you, especially you.
My mum’s old cat from years ago was called Alien because he used to push his face up close to hers and dribble with his mouth open. This isn’t Alien. His name is Theon and he’s a twat.
My garden is now a war zone of tiny yelling birds. It would be quite cute if it didn’t start at 4am. Here’s what the cat is doing about it
This year the adolescent blue tits have taken up residence in the trees behind no. 38. They still visit the garden feeders and hang around in the eucalyptus, crapping merrily on my roses
Formatting goes a bit weird in 4 when you don’t change the font from 36pt. Actually a dropdown pick list of font sizes would be nice 👉👈
Brockley is under yarn bombardment! #brockleymax2026 (I made the robin. The badger was made by a proper knitter)
A few pics from Saturday’s trip to Great Dixter. I may have raided the excellent nursery
I love this very much but I think you need a bit more scaffolding around the download instructions.
This morning’s dawn chorus is a rap battle between these two noisy bastards
We may be off to hell in a hand basket, but at least I’ve got a cute badge.
And a knitted blue tit. One of a series of birds that our local craft group is making for a community art project
Ok the world is going crazy BUT I have BTS tickets and I’ve ordered the album which will take months to arrive because…air strikes etc, but hey. And here’s a picture of my mum’s new cat, Gary.
Late for work thanks to Windrush strike and my own absent mindedness. But at least I get to drive the train
Only 0.5. The Grundys did spend NY in hospital after all. And I would like to submit a new suspect. It was the ghost of Bartleby, wielding the champagne bottle with his teeth, as revenge for all the internet exploitation and being a laughing stock in Horse Heaven. #TheArchersXmasBingo #TheArchers
