Does this genius realise “Gym” is from the Greek word for a place people did formal exercise at least 2500 years ago?

I had a long chat about this with the chap who runs the Misty Bottle whisky shop on Skye. He has some absolute horror stories about people thinking they can just walk up in the Cuillins as if it’s a stroll in the park. He was the last person to speak to one man who fell and died.

I saw a woman wearing the Liberté, Egalité, Sororité t-shirt that I have and I DID holler at her in delight. She just looked confused tbh.

Sitting next to the rude man who always pushes people out of the way to get on the train first. He’s reading a hardback book from which he has removed the dust jacket. But I can see his squalid reading material is about Nigel Farage. 😂

When they squish the bread or cakes is an immediate turn off for me. Any video that starts “did you know if you mix…?” Is turned off with extreme prejudice.

I fear we are likely cursed for having the wyrm-sight.

You are mistaken. That is surely a wyrm returning to its lair.

I wish to add another data point to this. My trains too and from Liverpool - different trains on different days also had this issue. I put it down to Euston clearly being a cursed site.

It’s possible you will. I am sorry but that’s just how it is right now. I am joyfully going up to the Wirral where it will be 20c and may rain!

It’s was the mid 80s at a girls’ grammar school in Buckinghamshire. Everyone kind of shrugged and moved on.

My A Level history teacher was a lovely woman but also an alcoholic who taught us the wrong syllabus so nobody got their predicted grades. Even the girl who was going to Oxford to do history got a C.

I miss getting the Puffin Post. Such a strong joyful memory of my book nerd magazine arriving so I could be quiet and read alone in my room; still my happy place.

Apologies for unwonted sincerity but my mum once said about my dad that she looked forward to him coming home as she knew he would make her laugh. It really stayed with me that mutual laughter was necessary for a good relationship.

They also have a floating sauna there and you climb down a ladder into the loch. We did it in November and survived. It wasn’t that much warmer in May tbh 😂

My pal has a cabin on Loch Tay and it’s one of my favourite places. We are visiting the crannog centre next time we meet up as well as the (now traditional) floating sauna ☺️

I simply do not understand how Glen Powell got to this point. He is at the level of Christmas rom com heroine’s big city fiancé who she realises is wrong for her when she inherits her great aunts B&B in rural Vermont.

A screenshot of a tumblr post by user “reggiemess” featuring a classical-style painting of a woman reclining and reading a small red book. The woman is shown in profile, with dark hair and pale clothing, against a muted brown background.

Overlaid white text on the image reads:

“Before, writers didn't use AI, they stole their wife's work and claimed it was theirs.”

More in the occasional series “slightly bonkers things I do at work”. Today is bagging up medicinal herbs for a quiz. Nobody makes me do these things but they do let me.
Little muslin bags with numbers attached surrounded by packets of herbs that you might find in a monastery garden.

Fun things at the PWR semi-final yesterday. Someone gave Emma Wassell a post-match Tunnock’s, I was complemented on my Magic Meg t-shirt by Meg Jones, beloved discovered they sell beer in 2 pints (his hobbit joy was immense), and we won! Away. Against 3 times champions Gloucester Hartpury.
The outside of Kingsholm stadium in Gloucester. Huge sign on the side of the building has Kings crossed out and corrected to Queensholm.
