I see we Wombles have a new foe to battle on the streets and it’s Extinction Time *dons sunglasses*
It has little arms! It can't lift things high enough to get them in a modern bin.

First of many such incidents, I expect. Another ‘win’ for those ‘useful’ Gen AI tools.

Sort of missed the cricket today; busy at work (205% of target!!) plus couldn’t bear the potential flaying at the Gabbatoir but hey, well done Joe Root on doing what he does best, steadying the ship and getting that elusive Aussie Ashes Test century.

Watching Letter to Brezhnev for the first time in ages and had forgotten just how adorable Peter Firth is in it. Alfred Molina’s pretty hot too.

Lots of great suggestions already (thank you!) but so far my favourite is Let the Bodies Hit the Floor vs Teletubbies...

Some of today’s efforts. Watched the 1978 BBC adaptation of Wuthering Heights while doing so; it was a bit grim! Not very festive viewing but I enjoyed it anyway.

Busy day; no trip to Fife as had a couple of appointments this morning, also had a nice lady from the local church pop over to pick up a box of crafting stuff I don’t need to use at their messy church events. Afternoon was spent making Christmas cards; 7 down, another 12 to go!

Sacked off the plan to start my personal Christmas cards tonight as too sleepy. Blankie, hot water bottle, mug of tea and a bit of telly instead. Regretting not buying the box of After Eights that was shouting my name as I left work; dark chocolate corn cakes just not cutting it tonight!

Got absolutely drenched on the way home; hat & brolly kept my top half dry but hidden puddles, cars splashing and the sheer heaviness of the rain meant I was soaked from foot to knee! Felt I was in danger of doing a Doctor Foster & disappearing into a puddle right up to my middle 😂
