Today was spent on the Gower Peninsula. Glorious sunshine...

A selfie of me high up above a large sandy beach, with blue skies.

In the background, a small island connected to the mainland by a rocky causeway. In the foreground, a sign saying the times the island is accessible for.

The sun in the sky is shining off the sea.

Yeah I've given them some thought but I'd be worried I'd lose one of the million pieces.

I'm not getting a good impression of it, I'll be honest with you.

Welcome to the party 😉! Don't be shy. I have heard that but never remember to do it! Next time...

I'm not much of a coffee snob really. I don't mind instant for what it is, but I think those posh ones are trying to be something they're not.

I think they were the worst two we've had on DRUK. The song didn't do them any favours but ooft. Not a good week.

I don't like the ones that are meant to contain little bits of finely ground coffee much - the flavour is better but I find them a bit grainy or something.

Oh no, this kind of thing. They market it for iced coffee but there's nothing stopping you from putting hot water in it. I did think about a bialetti but ones that work on induction hobs seem quite pricey.

I'm trying out coffee concentrate as an alternative to instant and coffee bags when I'm away from home. Verdict: 4/10. Slightly better than cheap instant. Not worth the extra cost.

Blimey. I don't think I could last that long on a call with anyone!

I know your pain. I managed to sleep until 8 a couple of months ago and that was my treat for the year.

How long were you on facetime for?!

Oh but a proper tropical thunderstorm is so fun too. Just not when you're on a beach.

Scott @scottnotscot.bsky.social · 18h

Not so cosy now, is it 🥶?

Just put an ice block in your pyjamas then.

I just send him indoors to bed first. He reads in my half of the bed to warm it up for me 🥰.

I did consider a joke along those lines.

Nothing gets past you!

Scott @scottnotscot.bsky.social · 20h

I get everywhere. Ish. Well, not really.

Scott @scottnotscot.bsky.social · 20h

Oh amazing. Have a good time! Is there a risk it won't be OK?

Scott @scottnotscot.bsky.social · 22h

It wasn't busy at all. Maybe 10 other visitors in the whole place.

Scott @scottnotscot.bsky.social · 22h

Oh really? We've moved on to somewhere north of Swansea. And thank you! Quite scenic so far.

Scott @scottnotscot.bsky.social · 22h

It's far too cold for me!

Scott @scottnotscot.bsky.social · 23h

Alas not, but there is a funny story with this. My dad Googled "where can I buy Caerphilly cheese" and started reading carefully about a cheesemongers in... London 🤦.

I should've brought more suitable gear, for sure.
