Roast chicken, mash, carrots, and parsnips (loaded with gravy) is exactly what I needed.
Stunning. 10/10.

Made the mistake of fancying a roast chicken for tea when I finished work.
Tea isn’t going to be ready until about half 10 at this rate 😂

I was interviewing this afternoon for a role on my team, and for some reason i tried to say ‘can you go over…’ and ‘can you run me through’ at the same time.
The amalgamation resulted in asking him ‘can you run me over’ 💀

Bought some daffodils yesterday.
Got home to realise my nice vase got binned in the move somehow.
Said daffodils are now stood in a pint glass on the windowsill.
Mission: find a new vase is on.

Had a guy knock on yesterday asking me about hedge trimming. Asked him to come back as I was busy at work.
He’s just came back and quoted me… £900 for trimming my hedges. I don’t live in a stately manor.
Absofuckinglutely not. I’ll do it myself.

The way Roxy speaks at the roundtable is so condescending. Makes it worse that she’s so loudly wrong.
And Matt? He thinks he’s the smartest, most analytical person in the room. He’s playing a traitor game despite the fact he’ll never be one.
Truly awful. #TheTraitors

Book 1 of 2026 - Dark Matter / Blake Crouch
Really, really enjoyed this ride. Straight into it from the very start. Devoured it in a day it was so mind blowing. Ends with a lot of questions which is likely intentional of Crouch.

I think if there’s one thing The Traitors shows, it’s that no matter your professional career, it means NOTHING in the castle.
