KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Does it end on a cliffhanger though, in anticipation of a second series that never came? I do hate to watch something that ends like that. 100
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 29/08/2026I’m a huge fan of the Maria Nila range you can get online. The 1l bottles are particularly good because you only need one pump of product so they last months. The True Soft conditioner is perfect for my fine, straight, easily tangled hair. Also, the range is cruelty free and vegan. 040
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Just doing NYT puzzles. This seems a little, ummm, on-the-nose? It’s increasingly how the rest of us are starting to view the US. 001
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 13/08/2026For kitchen? Quartz is tougher for everyday hard usage. Marble needs sealing and treating. My plan for next home (…!!) is to have a marble section or island for dough/pastry: you can pick up gorgeous and unusual offcuts at stonemasons for a fraction of the cost of fitting out a whole kitchen. 000
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 31/07/2026Bernie will continue his lifelong dream of axing all civilians. He screwed up the Met and now he’s ready to destroy everything else. 000
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 30/07/2026I’m so jealous! My weather app was showing rain here overnight but now - just two hours later - the icons have disappeared 😢 100
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 28/07/2026It’s making me so miserable 😞 oh how I miss rain!! 000
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 26/07/2026I am now regularly seeing things on Temu that are visually identical to things on Etsy, but for a fraction of the cost. But which is it - are the Temu items crude copies of actual handmade Etsy items? Or are people mis-selling Temu stuff as “handmade” on Etsy for a massively inflated price 🤷🏼♀️ 4222
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Brit here. This is genuinely terrifying. I do not understand why so many Americans worship that man. It’s incomprehensible to most of us. 000
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Clever girl!!! We recently learned that our ‘innocent angel’ Freya has learned how to open the locked cat flap. And it appears she is willing to share this talent with her siblings…… releasing them from captivity (no doubt for a price) 😉😂 050
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Couldn’t agree more 😂 Just thought I’d pop on for a quick scroll to see what’s going on in the world, and there is nothing but football in my feeds 🤦♀️ 010
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 09/07/2026Cat themed you say….. I’m a huge fan of the gorgeous 50s style dresses from Dolly and Dotty. They do traditional styles but also fun, quirky prints. Confession, I have most of the cat ones…… 040
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 09/07/2026Genuinely confused - I thought Burnham was the saviour, the one candidate they could all get behind? 300
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 09/07/2026I’m glad the BBC picked this story up, because it needs to be hammered home to Lowe’s constituents, who are at risk of never even hearing about it. Information silos are how the far right are ‘winning’. This abhorrent behaviour needs to be relentlessly pointed out, in every conceivable media arena. 061
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 08/07/2026How did Rutte get that job and what is the mechanism for replacing him? He is an absolute disgrace and does not represent the majority of European opinion. 140
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 08/07/2026First time I couldn’t make out any words. After seeing the words, I ‘heard’ them clearly. So I’m going to assume this was my brain being tricked 🫣 020
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 07/07/2026I also was angered by temp.prom. talk implying *the problem* is those who fail the promotion process are still allowed to continue as temp.prom. But the *real* issue is why proven evidence of fulfilling role/doing job well, doesn’t guarantee promotion. It’s utter madness, the system is broken. 010
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 07/07/2026I felt like there is still too much emphasis on graduate/academic qualities being ‘necessary’ for leadership. Policing should be a vocation. There is definitely a place for high-flyer academics, but the value of instinctual old-fashioned police experts shouldn’t be denied. 010
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 07/07/2026The talk of recreating Bramshill made me chuckle. Round and round the circle goes 🤦♀️ 010
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 07/07/2026It read to me like it had been written by the College of Policing themselves, trying to justify their existence and/or expand their empire. That quote about the ‘front line leaders training’ being popular is a joke. 100
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 30/06/2026So wonderful 😂 I could listen to / watch Randy all day 🤩 040
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 27/06/2026So glad someone else feels the same!! Thought it was just me. That film absolutely traumatised me 🫣 020
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 24/06/202610pm and it’s still 30 degrees in my bedroom 😱 I’m a lady of a certain age and frankly any nighttime temperature over 10 degrees is unacceptable 🥵😂 000
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 10/06/2026Based on gorgeous photos, went excitedly to view a cottage. We exited rapidly, nicknamed it ‘The Death House’. Dead bird on stairs, shower cubicle encased in spider webs, mound of dead ants in lounge, “annex” missing half the roof, bed covered in dead flies. So you think, what else are they hiding 🫣 120
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 08/06/2026All my cats have been named after mythological figures. The grandiose effect is somewhat ruined however when Loki becomes “Who’s Mummy’s liccle Loki-Loo-Loos den”. 😂 010
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 07/06/2026My partner and I still shudder when recalling a similar catastrophe, nicknamed ‘Garlicgate’ 😉😂 010
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Is that a plant on top? Don’t fancy its chances. Limited life expectancy 😼😼 000
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 25/05/2026I have an electric cat water fountain inside and a bowl of water outside. But the only thing my oldest cat seems to enjoy is drinking from my glass (stealing) or slurping from the bucket of old fish tank water we use in the garden 🤷🏼♀️ 100
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 25/05/2026Thanks Gavin, have circulated. First I’ve heard of it. 010
Reposted by KJ HelbroughDogtor Approximate @dogtorapproximate.bsky.social · 19/05/2026Uk cat lovers- . Croquembouche's brother is owned by a lady who is helping someone who has just entered palliative care. She has 15 cats. Most are seniors. 5 are going to a charities home for life situation, it's reluctantly accepted some will be pts. If anyone can love one I can connect. 42239
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 13/05/2026“I want to come in. Until you actually open the door. Then I will sniff disdainfully and wander off. Unless you have the nerve to close the door, then of course I’ll be back with a vengeance”. 😼 020
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 06/05/2026And who will be measuring the fail rate of cases brought without all the evidence…… 010
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 26/04/2026Mum had steamed salmon, my cat Leto brazenly stole it off her plate, ate it right in front of her. So next time, Mum brought 2 salmon steaks, cooked them together, put one on her plate and one on a plate for Leto. Guess which one Leto wanted (and subsequently purloined). The stealing is the point 😼 060
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 09/04/2026I had to get a new work laptop today. Whilst waiting for it to update, I made a joke about missing the simpler days of pen, paper and typewriters. The young tech guy looked at me quizzically: “What’s a typewriter?” he enquired. I feel so old. 1190
KJ Helbrough @kjhelbrough.bsky.social · 06/04/2026I remember once trying desperately to explain at a very excited TTCG that they hadn’t ’cracked it’ with their postings…. There had been no robberies the day before because it snowed. And robbers don’t like getting cold and wet any more than they do. Sorry to burst your bubble and all that but…..🤷🏼♀️ 010
