Listening to the new Elly Griffiths novel. It's the second of the series that involves time travel. It's good, but I'm getting tense because mild peril and a cat is involved. Probably a one listen only series for me.

The wonderful thing about Tyggers
Is Tyggers are burning bright
Their tops are made out of rubber
In the forest of the night
What bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy,
Immortal hand or eye
Did frame the most wonderful thing about Tyggers,
Their fearful symmetry!

I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.

Had a good day museum volunteering. If you fancy voluntary work check out your local museum, there is much variety of things to do and people to chat to.
