I have a website of vintage knitting patterns. hEDS. She/her 🏳️🌈 formerly a theramin player in an obscure & noisy band from Blackpool. Lover of cats, history, Dr Who, naps and reading. UK
#caturday Momo called me over with some little mews and then when I stroked his belly, got bitey and kicky. It was a trap. 10/10 would pet again.
Another #caturday . Behold Doug sitting strangely and Tilly having a night time adventure climbing up things.
Well, this was not what I'd planned, but does anyone want the extra copy, that was lost and then delivered to the wrong address, so I bought another copy, then it was found. Diana Wynne Jones contributed entries to it. Will send to anyone who can PayPal me the postage costs.
#Caturday Doug asleep and my boyfriend taking a picture of his flat mate Momo in a box and his finger in the frame.
#caturday Tilly on the garden chair. It was 28° outside but 32° inside so we sat outside for a couple of hours instead of going to bed.
Cat for no reason. (Tilly had a penchant for stealing her sister's high calorie special kidney care food at the time. She is not like this now.)
I hate to shatter your head cannon but Mrs Columbo had her own spin off series, with Kate Mulgrew as the Mrs in question. And yes, I only know this because she was in Star Trek and I'm probably on the spectrum.
I've previously mentioned my boyfriend's parents both worked in the crew for #doctorwho. Found a behind the scenes photo from Revelation of the Daleks. In the first scene in epi 1, an alien hand comes up from a lake.
She had a photograph from her thrown away archive/ scrapbook with a crew call sheet from Image of the Fendahl.
Momo loves boxes. Hates being picked up and moving house. Technically he's my boyfriend's flatmate's cat, but BF was delighted to have him move in.
This is memes and not facts but plausible enough to repost (disclaimer Epstein did celebrate Brexit in emails and the three Americans and Putin are in the files, but Farage is only linked directly to Trump and Steve Bannon and strong maybe Putin).
#catboxsunday is a thing? Here is Doug. As a partially sighted cat he needs quite a big shallow box, or he gets confused. My other cat never sits in it.
I took my sewing machine of the shelf a couple of weeks ago and Tilly decided it was a great high up place to do a loaf pose.
@charliejane.bsky.social I'm sure he or she is a very good boy, but why is he your book cover on the Google results for Lessons in Magic and Disaster I wonder? No need to answer that, but please let us know if there will be a UK edition?
a) this advert for an Easter nativity misses that he dies at Easter, nativity is birth? b) why is it targeting watchers of Rose Matefao on YouTube? How do I tell the algorithm that I'm not a Christian? c) what the holy Jerusalem fuck is that bridge supposed to be? And why is Mary white?
I'm a bigger numpty. I managed to break my finger by having exactly the same accident twice on a fortnight. At least you only got a bump.
This garden tree stump has become overgrown with ivy. Apparently it was a listed ancient oak, but had become overwhelmed with pestilence and creepy crawlies. I found a twig pentacle on it earlier in the year. Does it bode well that my cat now sits on it glowing? Strangeness in the communal garden.
It is now cannon in my head that when Tardis energy Rose was writing Bad Wolf everywhere she and the 9th Doctor visited, she stopped of at the BBC Radio Theatre to add this The Cure playing live. #doctorwho
@margaret.bsky.social 2 fav gifts, though the cat doesn't look impressed. I woke her to take the pic. On the right is an accurate duplicate carving of a lion in a priory which is somewhere between 100 & 700? years old. (Google Cartmel Priory miserchord for more).
I didn't realise the discourse here was American. Christmas *is* secular in England & Wales now. Christians aren't a majority (Census reported in the Guardian) but Christmas is still a holiday that is celebrated with trees, parties & gifts. (Graph from www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022...)
Secular British South Asians let off fireworks for Divali. Divali is Hindu, but Sikhs also have a holiday and do some bits of Divali. Those same secular people, Hindus and Sikhs will be eating Christmas dinner and decorating a Christmas tree. Here is a secular Divali pic.
Bell, Book and Candle is my new favourite Christmas movie. James Stewart meets Kim Novak on Christmas Eve. Thank you to @annelouiseavery.bsky.social for the suggestion in the Old Fox Advent Calendar posts.
