Let's all go back 50 years ago, I'll start by reading this

Book haul from yesterday. The Irish libraries have the kind of books that suggest they get properly funded

So anyway while I read this you can all fill me in on what the latest news is.

Jealous?

Well, no Margaret. We can go to the library and drink alcohol too.

You're jealous

Call that chaos? I've seen bookshops you people won't believe. Keats and Chapman on the shoulder of the Cathedral Quarter. I've dug under the arches in the dark near Kelvinhall subway.

That is a rare photo of Maggie Simpson
signed by Nancy Cartwright.
It is worth $150.

This was the must have ice treat toy of the 1980's/90s in the UK. My brother never got one. He bought one in his 20s, say it was the worse thing he's ever bought and was glad that mum said no.

I bought new glasses but I'm worried I look too much like @drmatthewsweet.bsky.social in them. I don't want people confusing us

So @alomshaha.bsky.social this is what it looks like after several hours in the slow cooker. Very mushy but probably a good thing and the browness is the garam masala. I've had a taste, wow... How can three little chillies pack so much heat

In the slow cooker. I've used half the water because it's a slow cooker and very little evaporates

She did this version of Oscar Wilde a quarter of a century earlier. What were they expecting from her, they already knew what her work was like.

I bought this chonky boi out Lidl. That's too good just for carving

Oh noes, another picture that I'm going to have to argue about @bendorgrosvenor.bsky.social
That's not a birthing chair. I have a similar sized chair to craft on. Also her head is resting on the wall, asleep. It's a chair for an attic space.
