Very happy with the winner of Fat Bear Week. On the radio this morning they said that the judges considered “size, skill, snack acquisition and strategic loafing”. Am I a bear too?

Show up to a job interview with a full sunday dinner. Don't explain yourself. Tear into that chicken. Complain about what your aunt said. Share your feelings about how the local football team is going to do this year. Get into a fight about what someone said ten years ago at at Easter.

Nothing like cutting down an alley with Kiddo when he stops, puts his fingers to his lips and in a whisper says ‘Shh mammy, there’s a monster over there’. Thankfully he also did a lion roar which seemed effective in scaring it away. My hero.

My potentially unpopular opinion is *deep breath* a PG story of goodies & baddies playing a cat & mouse game across space & time with plenty of larks/monsters, suitable for kids, that doesn’t require an MCU-level knowledge of 60 odd years of intricate plotting to understand every 45 minute episode…
