I love this line from a Guardian article about small talk…
“My uncle said once that he preferred funerals to weddings; I thought he was going to say something deep and melancholy about the evanescence of love and the finality of death, but he actually ended: “Just because I know more people.”

When my sister died, it wasn’t just her own childhood memories that disappeared. Mine did too | Jason Hazeley

This summer, I decided it would be fun to call Christmas Eve "Crispy Steve". Then I forgot and spent six months wondering why I wrote "Crispy Steve" on my calendar.
Who's crispy? Who's Steve?
It's Crispy Steve.
Who's crispy? Who's Steve?
It's Crispy Steve.

Can you imagine what a clusterfuck the first rodeo must have been? I mean that was literally everyone's first rodeo.

Summertime, walking through Galway with my kids, lots of traffic.
My eldest “why is it so busy?” I say “Galway gets a lot of tourists because it’s so scenic” he looks very 😕 Turns out he thinks scenic means a “long time” because anytime we take the scenic route it takes longer to get home #asd

When you're painting a mid 19th century pastoral scene, why is there always a massive cow there?
