It’s my birthday!
Bunty has given me breakfast in bed allowing me to smear jam on her croissants.
Later on Jill in the village shop is giving me a taste of her Lemon drizzle.
Then Bunty & I will settle down & watch our DVD of Liz Truss’s greatest moments! 🥳

I grew up in a seaside town and visit it occasionally, like many seaside places it is looking incredibly sad, and I don't think it is rose tinted glasses on my part. 1/7

If we are willing to pay lots of money to have a super capable machine in our homes controlled by Elon Musk we actually don’t deserve to survive as a species.
