Yes, you are correct. Super Furry Animals are the second best British band of the 21st Century and I am very excited to see them. Let’s go.

Let the cat outside in my new place after 3 weeks of confinement. Followed all the usual advice but she’s an explorer and is off out exploring.. praying she doesn’t go too far. Cat people will know how stressful this is!

My mother has discovered Temu. And is subsequently buying me all kinds of random shit that I don’t need. As I’m working all day every day everything is getting delivered to my lovely new neighbours. I bet they hate me already! I’ve only been here ten days and they’ve taken in 7.

Screen Time: Penda’s Fen
“They won’t spot it,” says the elderly ghost of Sir Edward Elgar, genially pontificating from an iron wheelchair in a derelict 1970s farm building. “They have no demon for counterpoint…”…

I’m normally a big Aldi advocate, but this is one of the foulest ales I’ve had the misfortune to slurp. It tastes more like gasoline than grapefruit. Revolting. 1/10
