I ordered some nice Yule decorations from Etsy this week, to go on our cast iron fireplace. I can't wait for them to get here. I'm not sure they will ever come down, to be honest!

We're in cheese, crackers and chutney season. Hurrah!

She said this to a gay man. Then when called on it, got pissy. Turns out she's still here though. Odd that. She said "It was a test."...

Just finished reading @paulcornell.bsky.social's The Gnomes of Lychford. I have to say a lot of it hit home, especially the accuracy about both the danger and the stupidity of a mob. Please to be reading the whole Lychford series, they really are most excellent. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B074CFCSN...

When one writes about made up characters, is it usual to think and be a little concerned about how they're getting on when you've left them partway through a tricky conversation?

Boss and I have decided that the full moon is playing havoc with everyone. It's taken us 4 attempts to understand what someone's actually asking for. We even had to get a third set of eyes to look at it.
It's not just us either!

I have been making a low carb flat 'bread'. Those of you with working endocrine systems, look away now.
It's essentially grated mozzarella + egg + yoghurt + flavourings. Weird? It works for me.
Today I'm using curd cheese, tahini, rose + orange blossom water. It smells divine. Time to bake!

FINE, Weather. I gave in, I wore a jumper for my walk this morning. Then as soon as I was back I was too hot.
Yesterday it felt like it was time to read my beloved @nigelslater.bsky.social's Christmas Chronicles again, and now here I am wearing a T-shirt! View from my room last night. So clear.

Yesterday, AI told a colleague that a photo of a common field mouse was, in fact, a red panda.

We already knew it, but here's proof. The WI is OFFICIALLY BETTER than JK Mewling and her rabid cohort. I initially rated her, as she donated a lot of money to finding a cure for MS, but if I could, I'd give it all back and tell her to sling her poisoned hook.

I have invested in a new keyboard. I'm a little concerned it's too loud for home but the keyboard action is lovely and the stands bring it to the correct height.
Plus, it's gorgeous and feels like it came from Space:1999.

A colleague just went to Berlin. She couldn't find 'proper tea' anywhere. They searched for 3 days. Even our Berlin office only had fruit or herbal. Is this a German thing?
@yorkshiretea.bsky.social can you do a push to the German market? We have resolved to never leave home un-Tea'd.
