Peeve report. Railway toilets. Why are the women's always the furthest away? Am collecting data. Also, the number of stations where they are locked all day is increasing. It's not a luxury but essential for travellers, especially when the onboard bogs are also either broken or disgusting.

It's not just Ed Sheeran gigs that are getting effected by the situation in the middle east.
A screen grab from the BBC news website which reads "Status quo at Jerusalem's holiest site under threat as Isreali nationalists flout rules". I did check online to see if I should have used effected or affected in my post, but still don't really know. Annoyingly I did know when I was younger but have used neither term regularly enough. I guessed and if I got it wrong please correct me.

Asterix Archiv 🐗 @comedix.de · 20/09/2026
Eine schöne Bastel- und Malarbeit. Manchmal trägt Obelix den Hinkelstein. Manchmal ist Obelix der Hinkelstein. Dürfte nicht leicht gewesen sein, diesen Stein zu finden. #Asterix #Fanart
Das Bild zeigt einen kleinen, länglichen und nach oben abgerundeten Stein, dessen Form an einen Hinkelstein erinnert. Der Stein wurde rundherum so bemalt, dass er selbst zum Körper von Obelix wird.
Auf der Vorderseite sind Obelix’ Gesicht mit den roten Zöpfen, sein nackter Oberkörper sowie der grüne Gürtel mit großer gelber Schnalle zu sehen. Darunter setzt sich seine typische blau-weiß gestreifte Hose bis zum unteren Rand des Steins fort. Seine Füße stehen auf einer kleinen grünen Wiese, die mit roten Pilzen und Blumen verziert ist. Der obere, dunkelgraue Teil des Steins bleibt weitgehend unbemalt und wirkt dadurch wie ein Hinkelstein, der hinter Obelix aufragt.
Die Rückseite löst den kleinen optischen Scherz auf: Dort fehlen Kopf und Oberkörper völlig. Stattdessen sieht man nur Obelix’ Arme, die sich von beiden Seiten um den grauen Stein legen. Seine Hände greifen hinter dem „Hinkelstein“ ineinander. Darunter sind wiederum die gestreifte Hose und seine Füße auf der Wiese zu erkennen.

I keep having to remind myself that going back to work tomorrow will be fine. Taking time off to go on holiday in the previous job would make me morose way beyond reason on a Sunday. But the feeling hasn't caught up with now.

My weekend started with an assignation in the car park of one of the poshest restaurants in this area. A French lady unlocked her car and passed me something long and very well upholstered. I paid her money and spoke a little French to her before she disappeared.

'Bap Tap' would be a great new game. A local name for a bread roll is given and you have to point to where that name is used. Just involves a map of the UK North of Coventry.

A picture of David Suchet as Poirot, but I've drawn over it in MS Paint so he's got the standard blue Mario dungarees but an an orange top underneath the dungarees and an orange hat with P logo similar to Mario and Luigi's.

Basically I just thought the moustache was similar to Mario's so thought he should be the third brother.

I am in a book town and have bought books. I have also been accused of being 'unhelpful' because, although it's my first time in this town EVER, I had the audacity to not know where a coffee shop was. Pensioners ffs

First very long walk on my own with Hooper today. Been looking forward to being able to do this walk from home with him. He was so good. He stopped and stared ALOT at new things as this walk extends a common walk for him. But, after allowing him to look and absorb, he trusts in me to set off again.
