Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Someone knocked my cat down and left her convulsing and dying on the end of my drive. Now every time I think of her I see her little black body lying there. She was the best cat. 100
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 29/06/2026Totally agree. I don’t read present-tense books. I also don’t like hearing people talk about things that they have already done in the present tense. That has to be endured though 000

Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 06/06/2026They are causing even more distress to his family who particularly asked for this not to happen. They are utterly disgusting 010
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Average of 300 words to a page (my small writing) so a 3000 word assignment meant writing 10 pages, by hand, and no internet to look things up easily. 010
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 02/06/2026They obviously haven’t heard of London’s pea soupers that caused so many respiratory illnesses 240
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 02/06/2026How do Lowe’s Restore policies compare? There’s a lot of “news” about Farrage but Lowe seems to be making headway and I feel he’s as bad, if not worse than Farage 😧 030
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 31/05/2026He obviously hasn’t had “a good look into” anything he’s advocating. He’s just gone with the politics of hate and envy 020
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 31/05/2026Apologies if I’m being ignorant. I’ve never read any analysis of the poem but learned it some years back so I could keep it in my head! 100
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 31/05/2026Why is Boots a portmanteau for Bonnets and Hoods? Wouldn’t it be Boods? He can’t have included the Beaver as a hunter (although it does go with the Butcher) as he says about the Butcher “the last of the crew” and then the Beaver as a pet, “a tame one he had as his own” 200
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 30/05/2026I’ve got around 2000 and I still regret the ones I got rid of when I moved 010
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 29/05/2026Mary Wesley published her first book aged 70 (she started writing at 68). Christian Lamb travelled to every continent in her 80s and 90s and started writing and publishing books in her 80s. Grandma Moses started painting in her late 70s. My mother started a degree in her mid 60s and graduated at 71. 020

Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 29/04/2026Where would their money go? Into the pockets of more billionaires, the ones we don’t hear about (the likes of Thiel and Musk in America, the Farages and Lowes in the UK). Who could guarantee that that money would go to the people who really need it? At least we know where it is 010
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 29/04/2026If we didn’t have a royal family Thatcher would have sold off all those historic buildings to China, India and the Arab states. We would have no access to a big part of our history. The general public would have no benefit from the money, only billionaires. 100
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 29/04/2026There are bookcases in all my six rooms (not the bathroom). I have 11 bookcases, seven of them are floor to ceiling. 010

Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 14/04/2026People want to turn everything a public figure that they don’t agree does, into something to be outraged about. You are so right about respect and decency 020
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 14/04/2026“had to do Red Cross”. Didn’t know Red Cross was an action: hang in there I’ll just Red Cross you. 020
Talpa @shedspace.bsky.social · 14/04/2026Gives with one hand (for the camera), takes away with the other. Strange there happened to be a camera just for this moment 🤔 000
