Flowers in Paris this August

In UK so not overly familiar ....does he ever actually finish a sentence..? Every thought kind of segues into another one before it's done. Trump does this too, but all his thoughts are evil/batshit/evil batshit. These ones they're going somew...can you imagine if they went some...cos these guys....

I think I might have owned this jumper....in 1980-something???

Aaaaah! It was, I'm pretty sure, "Mel" by Liz Berry! www.amazon.co.uk/Mel-Liz-Berr...

Oh, the relief! That's that brainworm silenced!

That's a good one. Tomorrow's another day etc. just cos your kid has had a tricky day, doesn't mean you're a rubbish parent (or that teacher thinks you are...)

Dislike: When I'm spoken to as if I'm also a 13yo who has done something wrong - appreciate it if teacher has taken a second or 2 to switch modes a bit

Like: When offered hope/options for actions. Helps steady my anxious brain which starts swirling as soon as I see school is calling.

Chickens got into a tizzy, made a fuss and did some shouting but were ultimately unclear on their motivation....yep 😁

Chicken #2 is doing the tell-all voiceover

He has made some chamomile tea....

Does that chap have a cephalopod on his head? Or is it a jaunty cap?

More Lidl gyozas
than anyone needs (or likes)

Good point! 💪

It's not as bad as could be.You can still get into the garden and see the terraces, the lawn etc. Couple of the trees look more bindweed/bramble than tree...but that's just loopy stems I can cathartically hack at 😁

I did get on top of the bindweed once. Spent all year pulling every single tiny bindweedlet i saw, and fishing for snapped roots etc. But tune your back for a minute and it's back with a vengeance!!

Thanks. Was wondering if I'd just be getting cold and muddy only to have to do it all again in Spring anyway.1 terrace at a time sounds sensible! Thick gloves +woolly hat+ hot coffee...the next not-bucketing-down weekend.
