Snarky 🇳🇴, living it up in Südhessen 🇩🇪 with her 🇮🇪🇬🇧 partner & 😺😸. Have also lived in 🇬🇧& 🇿🇦. Hobbies are beading, music, and 📸. Fluent in English, Denglisch & sarcasm. Other languages are available, but fluency is not guaranteed (yes, even the 🇳🇴 is wobbly!).
We're a month in, and still she just stares at me until I relent...

It's that time of year where the outdoor fridge (the balcony) is now colder than the indoor fridge (the er... the fridge). 😆

No longer need to stock up the fridge inside with the beer, wine and water. Happy days, as the fridge usually gets co-opted for festive makes, the closer we get to 🎄😁

Listening to your caller @mrjamesob.bsky.social Remember the nonsensical tiers that were introduced in Nov/Dec 2020, and then Christmas was offered, and then snatched away after millions made plans.

It was also that Christmas that Johnson & Frost brandished their so-called "excellent" Brexit Deal

Don't forget about the 3+million people who got absolutely NOTHING in terms of financial support, for reasons of "possible fraud", according to Rishi Sunak, who it was then to come out presided over exceptional levels of fraud during his tenure as Chancellor of the Exchequer, @mrjamesob.bsky.social

The second memory is the CCTV footage of Matt Hancock, the UK government's Secretary of Health, groping Gina Coladangelo while he snogged her senseless - but yeah, we were supposed to keep our distance from work colleagues, friends, family, @mrjamesob.bsky.social

He was the worst Health Sec ever!!

My abiding memory @mrjamesob.bsky.social was Dominic Cummings lying his arse off in the Rose Garden at Downing Street, bringing us the Barnard Castle Eye Test moment. And you've just expressed that, damn you! 😆

I was raging at my TV that day, my partner truly was worried about my blood pressure! 😬🫣

Listening to @mrjamesob.bsky.social talking about the UK government's covid response five years ago, confirming what we ALL knew five years ago, but which the fuckwit in charge denied and lied about, ad nauseum.

This was the one of the biggest reasons why my partner and I left the UK in Dec' 2020.

Today's binge watch is 'The Asset', a delicious Danish series.

Favourite line thus far, said by Tea to unwelcome male attention in a laundrette, "I just watched you wash your girlfriend's bra on the wrong cycle, I think you've caused enough damage."

Some useful advice* in these expensive times...

Last week @eejit.bsky.social spotted tulips while he was out doing the grocery shopping, and decided to surprise me, as I've not been having the best of times lately.

They're my most favourite flower, above even roses, and I adore the way they continue growing, despite being cut.

🌷❤️🥰

Eight months since Haggis came into our lives, and each month she creeps further and further into our hearts... 😻💕

She definitely enjoys being around people, and will follow you if you disappear from sight for too long. She also loves snoozing where it's warm (windowsill above a radiator, etc.).

This year's Hochheimer Haul!

All of those fabulous cheeses for 15€! 😋🧀🇩🇪❤️🇫🇷💛🇬🇷

Then two different spices - buntes Pfeffer and Gewürze für Fleisch- just a little something to give ooomph to a meat dish - 8.50€ for 200g.

And lastly, a pair of fingerless gloves I didn't know I needed, for a tenner!

I love coming to the Hochheimermarkt, as it's less filled with tourists, and definitely more "German". Loads of retired people, and later, once school is out, the kids and younger people will arrive.

The weather isn't the greatest today, but it's not so bad that nobody is out and about. 🍻🇩🇪🍁🎡🍂

It's the annual pre-Christmas gathering of friends at Hochheimermarkt today... a bit of drinking, eating, and exploring what the market has to offer (usually the same as last year), and more drinking!

I'm starting slow with a nonalcoholic hot wine - can't be staggering around until much later! 😆😂

This book is breaking my heart...

I sincerely hope that all of the ghouls and monsters, regardless of their status in society, are brought to justice - this poor girl (because that's what she was when all this took place) deserve justice, as do ALL of Epstein and Maxwell's abused.

Last week I had to listen to a chainsaw all Saturday, today I'm being serenaded by an assortment of tools while they dig up the pavement across the road, place whatever it is that needs laying, and then refill the hole, pound down the soil and then replace the pavement...

*big sigh*

Oh Pauline, you created a movement with your 'Shirley Valentine' role, along with the adorable Tom Conti.

You will be missed. 💔

November's "Beaver Moon", as seen from Südhessen in Germany...

I find the craters fascinating, and im intrigued by these three, all on a row, in the second photo.

Gotta love a neighbour who's decided to play tree surgeon, and is gunning his f*cking chainsaw at a rude time on a Saturday morning!! 🤬🤬🤬
