This reminds me: I’m totally out of shrew polish
I have been printing these out and leaving them lying around on desks in the office. Nobody throws receipts away in offices just in case they are important.

I needed some new boots, and the second I got them home my husband looked at them and said: “Wearing those while you pick your next Traitors, are you?”
And you know what? He’s not entirely wrong.

Another week, another storm warning. We’ve had more than enough rain here recently, but I really feel for Devon & especially for Cornwall, who look like they’re both about to get hammered again.

I think at this point the UK has accepted Paddington as the Death Bear, collector of souls. So, I think as a nation we should start smearing marmalade on the eyes of the dead and whisper “fare for the crossing”. It’ll feel weird now but, in three of four generations, no one will question it.

Husband just decided to be helpful and empty the 5 litre dehumidifier… and then dropped the reservoir in the middle of the kitchen floor. So much water. So much. Send towels, my hoopy froods.

Worth remembering when looking at the horrific scenes in the US right now that both Reform and the Tories have pledged to bring in ICE-style organisations to the UK if they win power

Just so we're clear, and so a tiny handful of wankers online don't create the wrong impression, the vast majority of your European friends are incredibly impressed by Minnesotans' courage against both the ice and ICE.

I’ve really enjoyed Lucy Worsley’s Victorian Murder Club (although the story of the Thames Torso Murderer does need a strong stomach) but I don’t understand the point of the AI colourised and animated photos: I’m not sure they brought anything to the experience of watching, and felt… gimmicky?

Nine bedrooms, seven untimely deaths: can ‘cursed’ Venice palace finally attract a buyer?
Nine bedrooms, seven untimely deaths: can ‘cursed’ Venice palace finally attract a buyer?
Palazzo Ca’ Dario, empty for years, has failed to find a new owner, with local legends suggesting it is jinxed
It ought to be an estate agent’s dream. Primely positioned on the banks of the Grand Canal in Venice, just steps away from the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, the storied Palazzo Ca’ Dario has shimmered on the water since the late 15th century, its elegant early Venetian Renaissance facade among the city’s most distinctive.
Named after its first owner, Giovanni Dario, a diplomat hailed a hero after securing a peace treaty with the Ottoman empire, over the centuries the palazzo has been home to nobles, merchants and even British rock music royalty. In 1908, it was painted by Claude Monet during his trip to Venice and one year later was cited by Henry James in his travelogue Italian Hours. Continue reading...

Well, I for one cannot work out why my ex-Army neighbour is in such a bad mood today. What could possibly have rattled someone like him, who saw active duty in several dusty war zones? It’s a mystery.

Say hello to our little ball of cuteness! A rare southern three-banded armadillo pup was recently born to proud parents Vespa & Scooter. At just two months old, this tiny newcomer marks only the second healthy armadillo pup born at the Zoo in our 121-year history, making this arrival extra special!
