Good morning All! I started my day chasing a dog traumatised by the poop hanging out of her bum. Luckily the lumps fell off onto the carpet and she wiped a lot on the sofa when she jumped up to tell me. How is your day going?

Old now but I really feel some people need reminding that with a vote for Reform, this is what they want to spend your council tax on, oh, and flags… Hilariously funny though www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Got chatting with the eBay seller with this #FrashFriday arrival. Opened to find Anti-Social along with a nice note too. Isn’t it amazing to get an unexpected reminder that there are truly nice people out there? I was feeling down & this turned my day around❤️ #Anthrax #MetalSky #VinylCommunity

The thing I’m struggling with is that the law of averages states that at least a few reformers would have fact checked figures relating to immigrants and will know that their claims don’t add up, so why, other than practices aren’t they speaking up?

why do I watch Masked Singer? It's great guessing but then when they are revealed it's just cried of "who?" in the room when none of us have a clue who they are... The irritating song sums it up "Who are you, who are you..." except we are singing it AFTER the reveal

I have an idea. If the millionaires & billionaires can’t tell you exactly how much money they have in their bank accounts, (to the nearest £1000, the difference is given away. Do this daily at an unspecified time see how they like having to constantly check money.

Midweek roast to get us through Humpday. We don’t do Sunday lunch often so roasts are rare. Defo took its toll on my back cooking it, easier with two people. Gluten free yorkies were on form though. Have I mentioned (🤣) how chuffed I am that I’ve nailed them?

Having a go at gluten free bread. 🥖 to go with the soup I made earlier. Recipe says to put in fridge overnight before baking so with luck I can bake it fresh to have for lunch. Never heard of putting bread dough in the fridge after proving before but then I haven’t made bread 🤷‍♀️
