Morning folks. I'm running one of the @Weirdos_Queerdos DnD sessions today and thankfully, I am not feeling rough after my vaccinations yesterday. I am doing half an hour on a bus to get there though (it is 7 mins away by car...) in a wheelchair whose brakes are not bus safe.

Afternoon, Twters! My friend got me this AMAZING mug for Halloween this year, it's just been filled with hot chocolate and mini marshmallows. Had my flu jab this morning, so I think I've earned a little treat. Happy Autumn, all!

A halloween mug: looks like a witch with a removable witch's hat on it to keep hot drinks hot in the cooler months. It's mostly black with an orange and white collar, orange shoes, and a black and white striped handle.
