From bed. As snowy as it gets here. Get the highest bed you can then put it next to the window. Especially if you love stars, owls, the seasons and you're a nosey bitch.

Library time again, she's gone to do a timed past-paper. I've done an 'A-levels to Uni' wall planner as best as I can so far. The stars are things for her to look forward to.

Only one thing to do with that January lull. List mountains of comics like a madwoman! Every angle covered, all flaws described, everything slightly undergraded because I'm soft. Tedious but worth it (link in bio)

High praise indeed from Mr @johnfreeman.bsky.social though I don't like talking about my being a great sorcerer....anyway, this retro review is hopefully the first of many as I delve into the bookshelves of @firstagecomics.bsky.social
For hundreds of years, scholars and heroes alike have searched for the complete text of the Darkhold - AKA the Book of the Damned, written by the elder god Cthon. Now one of the greatest socerers in the Multiverse has found it... Lucy Braithwaite…

Morning! Think it's going to take a while to heat the shop up today. Wrapped up next to the heater with some xmas food and a book. Not mentally back at work yet but might take some money later.

Uni library deserted today so we got a nice corner. A-level mocks revision for my daughter, business planning for me. The less said about my A-levels the better.

Whenever I visit Bolton. The upstairs tattoo place where I got a nose-piercing as a teen. My mum's face. My poor dad. The septic aftermath. #snotbubbles #pus #scarredTOTHISDAY

Chorley way to visit relatives. First up is the cat's collection of sticks. He has moved onto 'wriggly sticks, i.e. bringing home live worms so he can sit and wonder why these ones move. Next up, my Dad's railway waterfall. I prodded bits of the railway, knowing that the general rule is to not do.
