So very tired. Also, not enjoying the heat. Bring on the quiet shade of the autumn!

Look, I am about to go to bed and I really don’t want to upset anyone, but the *interesting* Yokozuna is currently actually in the air flying to London and I am not sure if I can sleep. (I will try to sleep) #sumo

Goodness me. Del Amitri did exist. Well, what about that.

It turns out that I want to try black raspberries. Envious of those of you who have them grow like blackberries.

Excellent dress there, lady!

Yes, fair. I should have said ‘don’t want war that has any deleterious effect on them’.

This. If the army needs to lock step, it will. They’re not lock stepping because they’re not asked. The comments would be happier if a fully militarised parade was happening. But they fail to think - they don’t want actual war, they just want to imagine they would win any war that might happen

It really is. What a dude.

Light is coming up. I should go to bed. Has someone remembered to turn down the humidity?

🌼 Anise 🌼 @anise44.bsky.social · Jun 14

This was me yesterday. I’m solving it today, by not going to bed yet.

Obliterating a horrendous week by eating hummus, drinking wine and listening to a random YouTube stream of music. Currently on Fleetwood Mac’s The Chain. Things could be worse. #DummDadadaadadadaadaDumDum

I am horribly biased with aubergines. It mainly needs oil I think (boomer ratatouille with a half teaspoon of oil - which I grew up with - is generally foul). Never been so posh as to meet a courgette flower.

Thing is, I would eat a chicken leg. I quite like a chicken leg. But that doesn’t look like a chicken leg... It looks like something that you need to take to the GP. And bring up using protection.

It’s likely to be gone soon. I mean we can’t guarantee it, because there are ongoing attempts to delay the implementation, but it’s probably gone soon.

I remember a conversation with a friend many years ago & we were psyched at the idea that a universe could be an atom within a chair in a bigger universe… was one of the most energising conversations I’ve ever had. Nowadays, I mainly talk about the cost of utilities and how we get the roof fixed.

Sorry, a *diseased* dick and balls? That you would want to eat?

🌼 Anise 🌼 @anise44.bsky.social · Jun 11

Holy hell. I mean, I do realise it’s late, and I’ve had a bad day, but why did they make that aubergine look like a dick and balls?

🌼 Anise 🌼 @anise44.bsky.social · Jun 11

But we never know when we’re going to meet somebody who we properly click with. And sometimes it’s at work and sometimes it isn’t. It’s awesome that you found each other.

I find it difficult sometimes to have a conversation with people, without telling them what the punctuation is..

I had a milkshake that was ferrero rocher. Honestly, I was disappointed because it was basically a vanilla milkshake with chunks of nutty chocolate in it. I wanted a more incorporated experience. These are the moments when you realise that you might be expecting too much of the world. #sigh

You go. I will fund you to the tune of one coffee and a biscuit (cookie), in return for proof of Bigfoot with you. Easypeasy.

What flavour? Allow us to live through you!

And you’ve got to do local colour and probably did some dancing on the way home if I understand music videos. Bravo.

🌼 Anise 🌼 @anise44.bsky.social · Jun 7

If it was me, I would simply ride a local badger to my destination.

🌼 Anise 🌼 @anise44.bsky.social · Jun 7

Really agree. No. All the way.
