Hello. If you're new to me, please know a *lot* of this feed is pictures of my feet as evidence of having reluctantly gone for a daily walk (#UnconfinedWalks). See also cups of tea (#TeaUp) and a Saturday night social (#ConfinedCocktails). In between there may be some archives.

I remember him being great on House of Games or something equally daft. Just an intelligent person who sees a lot and gets stuff done. He's great value.

I know. It is terrible. I reckon the joy of Traitors is partly in the livetweet, so will reserve TM for latrr. But then I have free evenings this week. On an actual busy week, decisions will be painful.

Honestly, I think Alan's a huge danger to other Traitors and if I were the producers I'd be sweating. (Also did Jonathan cock up talking with Joe M re shields? I felt like something was noticed there.)

No murder first night, slow poison second night... they want their money's worth of celebs, no?

And it was not a cunning, terrifying vampire. A bit more Count Duckula...

This is a great cast. Including the ones I don't know.

Actor. Magician. (He's great fun in Ted Lasso, and was terrible on his season of Taskmaster so I was surprised he is so good at puzzles!)
melindahaunton.bsky.social
Yes. So going in November instead has its attractions. And I've got a ticket already...

Did Jonathan Ross have time to spend 10 years as a motivational ops manager at some point? Because he's talking a good game.

Ruth is new to me. I approve.

Now that really would have been carnage.

They'd better recruit Celia, the cowards.

Tremendous camera angle work.

Alan, the least poker faced man in the world. Carnage.

Yes. I haven't been since Covid, which feels like an oversight. My Paris tickets can't be switched to Lille though, it's go or cancel (boo).

Tameka jiggling a fork was also quite something. How to bring people down to a level.

I should say for non-UK, this is a celebrity Traitors show. Not more death admin.

Wait, no, it's so some low-cut ladies have to dig. Goodness me.
melindahaunton.bsky.social
Unworthy thought: have they done full names on the graves so everyone gets to work out who everyone else is?
melindahaunton.bsky.social
Yes, but excellent museums and loads of space. Plus I wanted to go to Angers for the tapestries. (Also the hotels are very, very cheap at that season, cannot imagine why.)
melindahaunton.bsky.social
Honestly, I think that kind of break is more fun in company. (I tend to want good wifi more!) But it did give me a think, which I shall look up on the off-chance and would be fun if it worked.
melindahaunton.bsky.social
No, carer will be switching that week. Am away longer in November but things will be more settled then.

Long #UnconfinedWalks of visiting another care home, pharmacy, GP and mum, yes I did more or less do a working day around this, zoicks.
Banked shrubs with lots of bright flowers (front of a care home) Feet in sturdy brown boots on pavement Interesting decorative tile in a brick wall, the tile with a red flower in the centre and light blue edgings

(I know I could just stay at home and save money but I'm already going to be a Brave Litte Toaster Loving London Life all over Christmas, so if I could skip that for raw mid-November that'd be nice.)
melindahaunton.bsky.social
That's true. I have intended but haven't actually booked it!
melindahaunton.bsky.social
True, though that's probably unavoidable for a lot of fun things.
melindahaunton.bsky.social
Yes, it does look good. I'll definitely go if I end up heading to Paris.
