On the outside looking in. I do like to be beside the seaside. Pasta & plants. Food. And Naples stuff. 🇮🇹🇬🇧

Fvcking hell. Just had a quote for £10k for a gravel drive - the so-called cheap option. Trades are the way forward; anyone going to uni these days is mad.

I’m bored of meals - shopping for food, cooking it. I just feel uninspired 😢

Beverly Hills Cop is on. Must have watched it about 20 times. Along with Crocodile Dundee and Dirty Dancing, it’s a(‘ film I never tire of 😂

Not sure how i’d fare on Traitors. On the one hand i can sniff a bullshitter a mile off but on the other, my face comes with subtitles. And I can’t bear rejection so that would be a ‘mare.

I’m getting really annoyed with someone I follow on Instagram for probably entirely unjustified reasons. But they are a bit pleased with themselves. 😆🫣

Someone my husband used to know took their own life this week. Between us we know 11 people who have done that and 5 people who have been murdered. What a world.

The good news is I just got into a pair of trousers and shorts that haven’t fitted me for about 15 years. The bad news is I now regret chucking jeans and shorts on the basis “i’ll never fit into these again” 😡

I’ll tell you what’s infuriating (and baffling): when you type something into Google on the iphone, click ‘search’ and it deletes (for no apparent reason) all but the first word. Why the fvck does it do that?!?

I haven’t used my Nutribullet for about 8 years because the tabs got gummed up with sugar and so you couldn’t twist the cup on it. Managed to fix it with 99% alcohol thanks to YouTube!!

I asked Chat GPT why people look down on soap operas (because no-one who sneers at them has ever given me a reasoned, cogent answer). One thing it said was this….

I constantly have imaginary conversations in my head (for years I thought I was weird but apparently it’s an adhd thing). Tonight i’ve been arguing with imaginary people about tinned tomato brands 🤷🏽‍♀️ *I am weird

As I think I’ve said on here before, performatively hating the phrases “picky bits” and “hollibobs” has become far more annoying than people actually saying those things

I see the Guardian has now jumped onto the ‘picky bits’ hatred bandwagon. Lol. Do other nations get so aerated about mundane things like the Brits do?? I love a picky tea 😄
