Newly diagnosed Coeliac on the hunt for survival tips 🌾
Bought @sarahmiguel.bsky.social 'Sagrada' board game for Christmas. Halfway through we learnt what 'Orthogonal' meant (as used a lot in the rules). The game got a lot easier after that...

Am watching: Top Hat (1935)

Really enjoying this mistaken identity caper!

I love that "I fits I sits" is so accurate...

So we're officially going with the 'women must look a certain way' route are we. Jaysus we've sunk low, and all for hysteria over a danger that is beyond minimal.This is all just a distraction from the male violence epidemic. Divide and conquer. A tale as old as time.

I was hashtag influenced into buying a microwave toastie maker & I'm so pleased with my life choices. I can't shut up telling everyone about it ...

Spent my weekend painting this. Sanded, primed & gloss painted a pine chest from a charity shop & then decorated with canal style roses. About 6 months in the planning, feels good to have 'done the thing'

Behold interwebs. My amazing boyo @mrtimnewman.bsky.social made the most incredible GF Yorkshire puddings today. The man's a wizard...🤯

Channelling my inner @boakandbailey.bsky.social to share my beer. Wasn't hugely fussed about beer pre Coeliac diagnosis but I guess you always want what you can't have so GF beer has become exciting in it's scarcity. This one's from a lovely Tapas bar on Gloucester Quays.

Finally finished this one. Took me pretty much 2 months on & off! Phewph #embroidery

17 years old but still abides by "I fits - I sits" rules 🐾

The man opposite me on the train is reading this absolutely chunderous book. His other book is a Dan Brown. Those two literary choices are quite revealing...he's been chuckling along to this one and clearly loving it.

Mixed feelings about a recent visit to Blackpool. A complicated place & not somewhere I felt naturally 'at home'. Fascinated by this Beatles bar though. Couldn't tell if it was still operating or not...

Ummm....🤔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔

It's obviously a farmer from Taunton. But the vision of it being Mark. Or even the author 🤭
