Royal Mail is rubbish. Massive extra charges on my yarn and even tho they've had it for days, they probs won't be delivering til after Xmas. No option to go in person to pick it up. It's a 10 mins walk! I could happily nip down there right now. But no. No Xmas yarn for me. ☹️ Xmas is cancelled.

Delighted to finally find out who won Game of wool. 😁 Looking forward to watching it later on. Such a lovely show. I do hope it comes back. Although I think they will struggle to find a better nicer lovelier group of knitters.

Me wanting anything to happen...winners in competitions, football results, happy endings in tv/film ... is almost always the kiss of death.

The true “easy peeler” is, of course, the banana. (This is me attempting some light hearted Christmas banter. Your turn.)

I mean, even if it were, in fact pejorative, and I accept that US English and UK English may differ on this one...we are, in fact, largely dicking around!

My thing is...I don't understand this desire to influence people that so many people have. This obviously means I'm a relic of the past and should just shuffle off asap.
It's because a good-sized chunk of the people on text-based websites have a huge amount of self-worth in the fact they read a lot and fly off the handle at anything which reminds them that this is not widely shared, I think.

Checking the barbican theatre website I see info about dogs but nothing about induction loops. This probably means there isn't an induction loop. In 2025, how can a major arts venue not have an induction loop. ☹️ The concert hall has one. Why not the theatre?

This is madness. They way they just lump all house under one heading. I listen to nervous house thank you very much. No bold or brave house here. Just the nervous kind. And I spell new properly.

So I have to choose between knitting and dr who on Sunday. Obviously it's not a choice, I will be watching dr who duh but I'm pissed off that they couldn't have put it on at 9.

Apparently my listening age is 38. However Spotify definitely can't be trusted. It reckons my top 5 artists are max richter plus the orchestra he conducts on my top listened to piece and separately the soloist. So yeah. It doesn't know what it's doing.

I got our tickets for Superstar this morning. It's not that long since we last saw it (the touring version) but still I'm ridiculously excited. It's such a great production.

Royal Mail is, without a doubt, the worst parcel delivery company now.

£110 for a STANDING ticket? In a small venue? Yeah I think not. I'm too bloody short. And too averse to being squished. Sad day though, the circumstances under which I'd be open to seeing the pets have just shrunk a little bit more.

I was really properly happy ... after a few terrible weeks ... but sadly it didn't last.

I never had to deal with the crematoria where my mum and dad died. My dad handled for my mum and my husband handled it for my dad. So I don't have a point of reference but I can say, dealing with a pet crematorium? Is just seriously seriously upsetting. In a way that I don't think it needs to be.
