Post someone who looks great in a hat

Age yourself with gaming.

I don’t want to go to my next meeting, it’s going to suck balls (and not in the good way)

Theme of today, 🍎 != 🍊 “But why not?!”

The face / the scent

This was not what I thought it would be, exceptionally dark but utterly superb!

Spent the morning finishing the last of the Wayward Pines books in bed, now post-bacon roll, Christmas shopping & watching quiz shows. Off to the village fireworks display later. Chilled Saturday

Oldest selfie on your phone Not really a selfie, but the oldest pic I have (October 2006, explains the hair 🤣)

I decided to wrap up Friday at work by firing off a load of angry (yet 100% professional) emails for people who’d already buggered off for the weekend. Enjoy you Monday inboxes bitches 😂😂😂

This week has taken its toll, but it’s #Friday, nearly time for a rest & reset

She’s so cute, but how is this comfortable! #dogdad

Ru seems bored, and I have to agree #DragRaceUK

Thanks John Lewis for actually putting a banger in the Christmas ad for once. Does this now make it a Christmas song?!

In-person, all day meetings are completely pointless. Repetition of topics, circular conversations, overrunning sessions, not to mention the time to commute to a “central” location for staff spread across 6 counties. 85% of the content could have been an email

So today I had to tell my team that 1 of them (4 people in my team) will be made redundant before Christmas, I’ve been on and off calls all day with them in tears. Timing is atrocious and a horrible decision to have to make. Send hugs

This week is going to suck, can’t be fixed by positive thinking or distractions. It’s just going to suck

Drinks with the bestie. Honestly a fucking weird evening. Never had so many instances of people pushing boundaries

Drinking this evening for the first time in two weeks, my liver has needed this long to recover after Chester. But I feel gin o’clock rapidly approaching

Without question (closely followed by I Swear)

A movie you’ve seen more than 7 times with a gif.

Happy “Pigs in Blankets” season for everyone who celebrates. Yes they are now acceptable as a snack and side dish (to any meal)

So it’s 1st November now, that means it’s #Christmas right?!

Wrong choice, I know the lip sync was weak, but, wrong… #DragRaceUK

Feels like it should be Friday, but it’s not… 😭😭😭

Slow Horses is just perfection, I’m tempted to read the books.

Previously I’ve been criticised at work for being “too focused on the detail”, it aggravates me every single time. I’m the Data Quality Manager, being “focused on the detail” is LITERALLY my job 🤬🤬

18 months I’ve been trying to get something done at work, I’m so close, but now someone throws a spanner in the works as they don’t think it’s their job and there’s not a service desk ticket. Working with other IT people is infuriating

Logging on every morning (work and just life in general)

Queer BlueSky: how old were you when you came out and how old are you now? It was a process, friends knew I was gay from 18 (probably even before I did), wasn’t out to family & work until I was 24 after I met my now husband. I’m now 43

I need a haircut, shave and some dinner. Too comfy to move, how is it only Tuesday?

I wish I’d have seen this in person. Don’t live in Clacton, but close enough, and have family who do, who I’m adamant voted Reform (although they deny it). Tempted to show them at Christmas… 🤣

No pain, no Gaines!

Quote post with your favourite reaction gif of all time (I use this way too much, even more when someone irritates me by telling me how much I use it)

At this point I’m just a bit bored with it all. It’s become a farce now #DoctorWho

Tuesday… that’s all 🫩

Everyone in the UK for the next week…

Besides daylight savings being rubbish, I do enjoy one element of this time of year. Judging people for using the “big light” in their living room on my post work dog walks!

Looks a bit gay outside

While everyone’s watching spooky movies, I’m watching this… (gave up on TV, needed something stupid)

Sound like the new Lily Allen album is going to make my Stranger Things rewatch hit a bit different… (also the “Smells like Jim Hopper” candle in my house might end up in the bin) 🤣

I’ve finally sat down and now I can’t be bothered to move

Just seen an advert for wills allowing boomers to transfer assets to family so they don’t have to sell their home to pay for elder care or pay inheritance tax “Why should the local authority get our hard earned money?!” So just make your kids rich & burden the state with your costs instead?! Wow

It’s nearly time to log off for the weekend 🙌🏻😍 Happy #Weekend peeps

Decisions for this evenings viewing, do I watch: Nobody Wants This Alien Earth Boots House of Guinness Andor I’m going to watch them all but torn on where to start

Can someone please come and do all my work for me?! I don’t wanna 😭😭😭

Payday used to mean running to a pub after work, a Saturday frivolously shopping and a Sunday surrounded by purchases, hungover, wondering how I’m going to afford to live for the next 4 weeks. Tonight will be Netflix, a cuppa tea and an early night! #old

What's it like inside your head?

This is Wilson. He's attempting to lick the peanut butter off his nose. Just hasn't figured out how his tongue works yet. 12/10 (TT: fitler.furry.friends)

Chester Boys Weekend 2025

I think I’ve finally recovered from the antics of the weekend… 🤕
