We did the midnight sun in June last time and it was bizarre - and beautiful. I took this picture out of our hotel window at midnight!

We are off to Tromso for Christmas. We’ve been before and loved it there. I’d happily live somewhere like that. To me it’s the most beautiful place I have ever seen . . . .

Harvey isn’t keen on the heat either. He has his cool hidey hole spots under the ferns and bushes by next door’s pond. I might have to try that myself next year. But for now I’m just pleased it’s getting chilly again. Norway here we come!

I do occasionally bump it up a little bit but the house is generally warm in winter and cool in summer. My maxim is usually what does the cat want? And then I follow that

We got on famously with everyone until just after the pandemical. Then the husband threw a wobbly out of the blue and then we fell out. Not that I cared. At least we have a life

Ours came on last night too for the first time. But I’m of an age where I couldn’t give a shiny shite. The thermostat stays on 20 and that’s that - like it or lump it. And I am unanimous in that

Kudos to #beck for releasing his latest LP with a pukka record company label - and not the usual blank or clueless, rubbishy label designs that most artistes do these days. Innit. #capitolrecords #ridelonesome

And even if it does I don’t think any of us need 3 day’s worth of ready meals to survive 3 inches 🙄

Oh FFS - it has snowed here before you know. I’m not panic buying for a dusting ❄️ A formal weekly shop would cover it. Let’s face it biatches - it’s just crap click bait Good evening 💅🏼

No thanks. Until that fat orange idiot is history I’d rather spend two weeks on a lilo up an Alp 🙄

We’re up the pub - and having dinner there as I CBA to cook. Food is nice but they have these weird cutlery design where they’re all wrong. What’s that all about ?? Eh???

Severe drought restrictions now increased for us by #southernwater & #southeastwater (unless you live in Hastings & Rye) Yet water leaks go unrepaired - like this one in Brede which has been pouring down the hill for months now. The government need to get a grip on these cowboys!

I always think of Benny with regard to Ms Bakewell. For a woman with so much culture she always seemed so bloody miserable. Maybe that’s what your mum meant?? 🤔

Well it’ll be similar to the pandemic. We have a dairy in the village, bakers, fishmonger, grocer & two pubs. The chip shop might struggle a bit but we can get fish from the river. Our local train is a steam train too. We can connect with neighbouring villages. It’ll be like Passport To Pimlico☺️

She really was. A complete eccentric she somehow managed to battle through in a male dominated profession to bring her amazing talent for malapropisms & a real understanding of what made people laugh. I absolutely idolise her. And the audience laughter shows how much they loved her too.👏🏼👏🏼

I’d have thought you’d have been used to that dear??🤣🤣

Absolutely! It would similarly provide a link that should never have been severed. And I am unanimous in that . . .

Down our way the Marshlink should be electrified with 3rd rail as an infill to allow free movement of 375/377 stock between Hastings & Ashford. battery trains make no sense for this small section.

She really was. If ever I need a good laugh I’ll reach for Nearest & Dearest or Not On Your Nellie. Just glorious.

Ha ha ha ha - it’s not easy being potty mouthed with American software is it? Try typing ‘god’ It always changes it to something else. I couldn’t give a damn about their religious sensitivities. And I’m the last person you could call po-faced 💅🏼

It is isn’t it? What were they thinking? Although perhaps it’s better not to know?

The ‘new’ #Apple #Siri is utter rubbish. Actually even less responsive than the old one was. All I keep getting when in the car to almost any request is: ‘There has been a problem - please try again’ I’ve stopped using it.

New addition to the record collection yesterday. I bought it because it’s on Apple - and also because it’s weird. Isn’t it? I wouldn’t cuddle my brothers half naked. A handshake and a birthday card does us. That pair look like they’re about to have coitus. Disgraceful.

In London I blame the No. 38 Bus route - there are so many buses on this you could get on one at the back, tap in and simply walk from one bus through to the one in front until you reach your destination. You wont fall because none of them are moving. Thank you and kind regards 💅🏽

Have you ever been in SF when the fog rolls in in the autumn?? It’s like a horror film!! Although we have had fog banks in Hastings too 😶‍🌫️

Have Apple device users noticed that their software hates contracted words? It automatically mangles contracted or abbreviated words - as per my last post below. And I’m sick of it. Do you hear? SICK OF IT! Thank you.

It was too loud and the wrong sort of classical. And I am unanimous in that 💅🏼
