There's a lad just joined this morning's #BusCommute who looks like Wilf from the first series of 'The Traitors'.
Don't think it is him, though, he's not wearing a hooded cape.

Always a bittersweet moment to get to an #OnlyConnect final, great to see the best two teams take each other on, but sad that we'll have a long wait until the next series starts. #MondayMindMangle #QuizzyMonday

No need to have someone watch the baby outside the shop, at that time she'd have just left him there and gone inside. Just like my Mother did with me, and then forgot I was there and walked home, causing my Father to ask her "where's the baby?" and nearly gave her a heart attack #CallTheMidwife

Just checked the weather forecast, which is simultaneously telling me today "light rain showers and a fresh breeze" but also that there is a yellow weather warning for heavy rain.
So that's nice and clear.
