Art class. Tomatoes are my favourite thing in the world (sorry Bruce) so today made me very happy.

17yo said how cold it’s going to be tomorrow morning. I said I can put the heating on but it’ll be her main Christmas present.

There hasn't been much reporting about the impacts on wildlife of the Tyneside nurdle spill, but this is a brief article about a series of necropsies being carried out on seabirds from the coast, plus reports of "samples from contents of stomachs of suspected regurgitation which contain nurdles."

Necropsies are being carried out on seabirds to find out the effects of microplastic pollutants.

Still feeling a bit rough after the flu jab. Lasted 7 minutes on the cross trainer. I'm thinking a very strong g&t will see me right. And I'm having chips soon.

The Christmas pudding mix is infusing in rum and stout. It smells like my gran's and I can see her gnarled hands grating apple and nutmeg and I miss her so much.

I'm still in bed but Sainsbury's are bringing all the Christmas cake and pudding ingredients this morning. The house scent this week will be Cinnamon Nostalgia. If Tom Ford made it, I'd buy the big bottle.

PSA Germany: Saturday is a public holiday. All the shops will be shut. That includes supermarkets. If you are visiting Germany this weekend, do your grocery shopping tomorrow! But be aware it’ll be utter chaos as everyone panic buys like in a pandemic cause the shops will shut for two days.

#RNLI merch arrived when I was away. The bear's name is Ronnie, which is short for "LEAVE THE RNLI ALONE YOU FUCKING RACISTS." Cute 😍.
A navy desk diary, a monthly calendar,  a coin purse with RNLI logo,  a super-cute teddy in an RNLI jumper and a Santa hat.

Last day of the holiday so breakfast was whatever we could scavenge out of the bin- a fizzy peach, an out of date bit of ham, old yoghurt, and toast. You can't go far wrong with toast.

I'm making a documentary about the RLNI situation and I am contacting various organisations. However I thought I'd turn to bluesky as well, I'm looking to interview people either connected to the RNLI, to refugees/those working with refugees and also with counter-protestors. Please share.

Nativity Play.Tussle between Mary & Joseph about who got to hold the baby. Mary shouts "Miss, the Baby Jesus's heads come off!" It clattered across the floor like an aristo's guillotining. I had to crawl across the stage, retrieve it, slam it back on and smile. My arse was on every family's video.

I've just been to a second-hand bookshop in a rainy #Norfolk village. Cat on the counter, owner in an armchair finishing her book. She said "You don't mind if I don't come over do you? Only I'm getting to the bit where you find out whodunnit." That's the ideal life for me.

I've just read something on the BBC news app about someone moving to Illinois and cutting her commute from a 15 minute drive to a one minute. I've read it half a dozen times and I can't get it to make sense. Surely that's about half a mile tops?
