Here’s a good typo - an arts group to which we belong is arranging its Christmas event and, thrillingly, we shall be offered mice pies. Defo one for the diary - may take #cat Hettie to eat mine.

Oooh - I could scoop up that puss and never let go!

Yes, you too 😁

Some really heartening news about developments in medical treatments. The only downside is that some of us have lost loved ones and friends to those conditions, and we (or I) can’t help but think ‘if only’. But it’s still great news.

Pronounced ‘Brittyan’ or ‘Brishan’? If the latter, that makes me ‘Brishish’.

Seems to work okay. You’ve more than I have. SO FAR. (Would this work?)

There! Another business opportunity! Interesting how the ticketmeister gives the impression of smiling without even having a mouth.

Actually I find the right path is *usually* the hardest. Why can’t it be the opposite?

Someone, somewhere, is making and marketing witches’ pointy hats. Anyone see a business opportunity here? You have 16 days.

I’m with you, Stanislaw.

In the UK, I believe it is an offence to use social media to libel someone by pronouncing that they are, or have been, committing serious crimes. Just saying.

Pls take vid evidence & put on BSky. Thank you.

I bet everyone responding puts ‘ribbit’, so I won’t. Great pic though but.

Matcha?

This evening’s hoped for restaurant-quality dinner lost a few points. The apple, parsnip & chickpea fritters crumbled badly and looked dire (though tasted nice) - but the garlicky orzo with peas, red onion and lemon was worthy. Well I tried.

Warning: food complaint! Why would anyone want to serve nice crunchy toast or crusty bread slathered with a gooey topping to make the base soggy? Taking aim at bruschetta, creamy garlic mushrooms on toast/ciabatta & so on.
