I could cope with Daveed and Roof. But no amount of alcohol or tranquillisers would help me through an Xmas with Pip. #TheArchers

If don't want to be Whammed! then skip the final episode of Man vs Baby. #ILose

I'm watching Man Vs Baby and all of a sudden there's a character who sounds exactly like Josh from #TheArchers Angus Imrie. √

Well I got excellent care at KGH and to no one's surprise, the cardiologist said "there's nothing wrong with my ticker". I'm very glad they took the time to check it out though. He actually thinks I might be having esophageal spasms based on my symptoms. Will have to look that up.
Well I'm off for my rule-out-all-the-unlikely-stuff cardiac assessment today. I have no doubt it will be clear of any issues but the ER doctor said they aren't great at recognizing cardiac symptoms in women so he wanted to be extra cautious. Thank god for the Canadian health care system.

Esme and David are certainly giving off father-in-law / daughter-in-law vibes. #TheArchers Especially since Nina is now gone.
December 14, 2025 at 7:10 PM
Hmm, sounds like Esme has long term plans here. Maybe Akram won't be taking over the farm after all. #TheArchers

I have to say, contrary to popular opinion, I quite enjoyed yesterday's #TheArchers I didn't see the three sickies taking advantage of Joy and Leonard, nor any problem with them having a drink (non alcoholic) at the pub. They had no idea that J&L were going to clean the flat. And I liked everyone
