To please you. When I need you. What on earth is that clip from!?
For some reason this doesn't surprise me. 🤔😊
It's the cracks that let the light in. Or do something like that.
Weather a factor? Will v neck require a scarf? Would you know which scarf? Either way I'm sure you will look swish.
Morning. Enjoy your gallivanting later.
Made me smile again. Thank you. Love that word btw. In all contexts.
Well. Not for the first time, you've made me think. Thank you.
Superb. Top chat. And you've just reminded me that wee London cafés can be some of the most lovely places to eat.
All of this makes me think of the Chandler quote: Down these mean streets a man must go who is not himself mean, who is neither tarnished nor afraid. Worth reading the whole thing if you don't know it. Tagging @andreamann.bsky.social who's been doing a great job on this. Hope your week gets better.
I sent the photo of the quirky ceramics before I read your sad news. Just in case you thought I'd turned into a thoughtless monster. 💙

I shamt name them,but this was the conclusion of one of my students about Ireland and Irish heritage.
That's the future thank god.
Oh. And why don't they just change the name to boring, boring Aresenil.
Watched this again this week. Amazing animation. Very scary and creepy. And very risque for it's time. Topless women.
I could pretend to wonder what you mean, but I doubt you'd believe me.
My gorgeous local gift shop usually has some. I'll have a look.
Looks fascinating. Wednesday is the 12th though. Only spotted it because I'm in Glasgow on Wednesday and wondered if I could go.
So having read the replies, people with penises who chose to sit, as I do more often, crack on. People with penises who chose to stand, lift the seat! Why in name wouldn't you!!?
Vanessa. Sorry but this is a bit bossy. But so many people today and yesterday are on your side. I'm loving this Milo fella eg. But get back to believing. Sorry. I'm bossy. They are idiots
And while I live alone, I've got loads of women pals. I'd hate for them to go for a pee and find I'd forgotten to wipe. What's the thing now you ask?
Interesting. I'd rather lift the bugger than wipe it I suppose. It's no hardship. I've been doing it for 50+ years. Then there's Europe with no seats.
