Suffolk via Scarborough. “Suffolk, Norfolk’s poor cousin, or brother, or both” - Alan Partridge
Very excited to be at the #commonwealthgames netball tonight. I’ve been getting tips for the social league team I captain. My main tip is that we each need to be a foot taller then we are sorted
Haven’t worn a coat in ages but now I’m in Glasgow 😂Feels very strange after all the heat!
A new genre for @sellingamirror.bsky.social perhaps? People selling baby monitors…
Quite a worrying fire in the village which is bone dry, and this is the response… this harking back to a time that didn’t really exist to deny the real existential crisis we find ourselves in is deeply depressing
But this only works if you both live in Suffolk and grew up in Scarborough- I’m thinking this gene pool is limited.
Ok I’m on the wine. I can only apologise for the emotional posts to come
I’m saving my pennies for these ridiculously tart (and delicious) French 75s (Scarborough quickly disowns me, I’ve become a posho)
Dining solo in London on a work overnight and decided to treat myself to a posh tea, but I think I’d be the “pickled wally” if I paid £30 for fish and chips. You can take the girl out of Scarborough and all that…
Me: you can stay up and watch the football with me tomorrow Five year old: I don’t want to, I only like Colchester United not England Me: that’s ok, you can go to bed normal time then Five year old: Can I just shock you…
Netball was hot tonight but I jumped in the estuary after which was amazing
A story in two parts from my village Facebook group - it’s peak East Bergholt. Probably only surpassed by the time someone was spotted out wearing joggers, I kid you not.
Self Esteem’s music has seen me through a really dark couple of years and spoken loudly to me. An absolute joy to see her perform again tonight.
“Vintage” doing a lot of heavy lifting. “Great condition vintage bread board £40”
Very sad to hear David Hockney died. I love the breadth of his work. My small person had a lot of fun at the Lightbox Hockey some years ago!
Just seen someone advertise their business helping getting accessibility right at gigs with this very weird AI image… I’m only assuming they are happy because it’s an Ed Sheeran gig and at least they don’t have to watch and listen
I’m not a LinkedIn naysayer, as a self employed person it’s a vital tool to get new business, but jeez the content pushed into my feed can be total crap.
I love Burglar Bill. I do all the voices for my kid and one year she went as Bill for world book day too!
Walked the kid over 40 miles around Disney, LA over the last five days. Bit broken. Home tomorrow and I’m armed with a load of anecdotal hot takes on the US to bore my friends with too, so that’s a treat for them.
I can’t even imagine the insanity of this job. Although I wonder if @generalboles.bsky.social should apply?
Midnight walk for the local hospice - steamed up glasses and a bit rosy, but we had a lot of fun!
