As soon as I posted mine I thought C64. Bloody amazing machine. Then Megadrive after that felt space aged

Mine isn’t like that now and has apologised countless times. Still the most insecure person ever, but masks that now by acting the clown. Wish he’d found that coping mechanism 40 yrs ago

He’s got a different (unknown) dad - the result of a brief fling my mum had between her 1st 2 marriages (which resulted in 2 kids each marriage). Made him the most insecure person I’ve ever met. As the next child born, he took it out on me. Genuinely thought he was going to kill me. Petrified of him

Just had the greasiest, most disgusting, sosij, bacon and mushroom butty. It was fucking sublime

Well, yes actually

I actually feel like, in some small (almost indiscernible) way, I’ve altered this world for the better here 🥹

Yeah, you’d be searching a while on the canal towpaths!

I did pick some samphire this year too. From morecambe bay. Another great find!

Apparently, if you boil it you’re fine. Boiling doesn’t diminish the druggy bit either!

Yeah! Hallucinogenic according to google. Far better being left in its place, I reckon, rather than harvesting! 😵‍💫

That sounds like a great day out you had there. I’d love to get into foraging, but other than picking wild garlic in spring I’m bloody clueless!

G @gj19eighty.bsky.social · 1d

Lovely, isn’t it. Wonder what took a munch out of the right hand side?

G @gj19eighty.bsky.social · 1d

Quite impressed with that find!

Didn’t go up a mountain due to too much alcohol last night related reasons. Went for a less taxing walk instead and saw this beauty 😍

Sadly not 😬

G @gj19eighty.bsky.social · 2d

Going up a mountain tomorrow. I’m not built for that, so send thoughts and prayers. Or cash.

this high quality gag came from someone who is also here but as he hasn’t posted it himself I assume he doesn’t want to be tagged to share in the glory

Farage is being interviewed. He says “I WAS ABOUT 14 AND IT WAS OVER THE PHOTO OF EVA BRAUN”. The interviewer says “ERM... I ASKED YOU ABOUT THE WEST BANK”
