Just bought an orange dress for my first Buddhist funeral. Also very October coded.

It was very this moment, which we've had lots of, and which always makes me cry when I watch the film.

The end of Rain Man when they put their heads together.

Tonight little bro asked to go on "a lovely trip" (short drive to Tesco) When we got back he sat on the sofa grumbling. I sat on the arm, stroked his hair and asked him what was wrong. He leaned his head against me and said "I was tired on the road" then stayed leaned into me quietly whispering it ❤️

Unrelated photo of me and my brother as kids at Halloween. I am dressed as a witch with paper hat and bin bag. He isn't dressed up, it must have been a school thing. But he has a very 80s here comes big trouble jumper on. I have my arm around him so not entirely unrelated.

Doing a sadmin panel next week and am having fun making slides.

Clippy from ye olde microsoft days with a speech bubble saying 'it looks like you're going to die would you like help?'

Best of luck and hope you are doing ok x

Thanks. That shouldn't be a problem, there are lots of similar resources and as long as the book title isn't in use I think it's ok. Have dropped the publisher a line in case. Thanks!

What a Terrible World, What a Beautiful World as The Decemberists rightly say.

Mixed bag train home. Had a nice chat with a sweet old man who blew kisses when he got off and then had to move carriages because he was replaced by someone scrolling tik tok full blast no headphones.

Golden hour in big London.

Shard and old church in light and blue sky with fluffy clouds.

View of the city over the Thames. Blue sky and fluffy clouds.

Tate Modern and sky line with sun behind and millennium bridge across. Sun shining bright as it goes down to the right.

I love them a little bit.

In my experience, I can only go off what I find in a house search, which is often frustratingly very little, but funny enough I am at an estate research conference today and I just asked them. They say a solicitor can do an asset search so hopefully that helps.

Yeps and I honestly don't mind any review. At the start a friend asked me if I was nervous about it being out there and how people would review it, but it's out of my hands now and can only appeal to who it appeals to, no control, no worries.
