Apparently there are concerns about being torpedoed on the Kenner and Avon…

@tokyosexwhale.bsky.social had to be done!

Time for this again… Car packed, just lunch and a shower then and hour or so drive 🤞

Making new friends as an adult is tough because the people I’d click with are also staying home in sweatpants

All 4 screws sheared on the bottom bracket, extra bracket added and all screws replaced. Several more had sheered when I took them out. Dodgy DIY complete.

Digging in the front garden is always an adventure, seems like the builders dumped a load of rubble under there and covered it with topsoil. This is one of the bigger lumps to come out so far. Thankfully the back gardens fine.

Airfix were feeling generous, only ordered a single brush to meet the free shipping threshold.

I always forget the before pic but there’s been a big cut back at the front of the house. Just on done now then maybe some new plants to go in. Working in the garden seems to be helping in my recovery.

Unusual flyover for us this evening - presume it’s an A400 Atlas as second pic. Maybe with drop tanks fitted.

Been quiet lately due to health issues but despite waking up far too early I did get to watch a couple of our house martin nests take their first flights this morning while it did some yoga outside in the cool.

@nedboulting.bsky.social see attached for something to chat about with Pete on a slow day.

Very familiar…

Nice little tangent to go off on and actually read rather than listened to this one.

A bit more gardening yesterday and some pinks in flower.

Watched the first couple of episodes of Murderbot and enjoyed it enough to go looking for the books it’s based on. Really enjoyed it so that’ll be a nice diversion from my usual history consumption.

Nice to see somewhere local pop up.

Today was a struggle but there has been gardening at least.

Gave me a chuckle anyway

Well… Andor was a bit good. Nice to see my fav character finally turn up too.

Video explanations are far too slow… …might be caused by a neaurodivergent brain.

When something trips your pattern recognition… Never mind they’re the wrong planes on the left but the look like they’ve been lifted from the image on the right as well.

Productive weekend…

Pillbox of the day

Got an email about a forthcoming audible price increase followed by realising the cost of buying additional credits is now more expensive than just buying the audiobooks… 🤔

Not had the best day but had a quiet evening reading @robinince.bsky.social new book. Decided to mark all the bits that resonated… only halfway though. It’s a thoroughly excellent, accessible and informative read.

Mid build on my first big stompy knight and they go and reveal a new one.

"Regular" people conforming to social standards is like having to wear a slightly uncomfortable suit or dress to a fancy event. Neurodivergent people conforming is like being forced into a straight jacket that restricts your breathing and being expected to smile like everything's fine.

Happy Star Wars day. This always makes me chuckle

Spare magnets = somewhere to hang the instructions up

Had these a while and been feeling a bit intimidated by the thought of painting them but thought I’d start the build at least. Plan is to spray the armour plates one colour and the rest something like boltgun metal.

Had a funny, thought provoking and, at times, emotional evening seeing @robinince.bsky.social talk about his new book thanks to @hungerfordbookshop.bsky.social Thank you for the thoughtful dedication and directions to the loo before the gig.

Study History. 100%. Absolutely. Study History.

@almurray.bsky.social again last night, this time in historian mode. Really good talk, great to get my hands on the actual book after listening to it over the weekend.

Well that was a good listen, just got to wait until Monday to see the authors and get a hard copy. @almurray.bsky.social @hungerfordbookshop.bsky.social

First 3 episodes of Andor season 2 were a bit good.

@davegorman.bsky.social when worlds collide, Star Wars Andor has a planet full of Gormans it appears.

Seems to be more helicopters about recently, 3 Apaches (?) flew over earlier.

First one I ever read, got the space marine army list photocopied.

Actually started building some of my purchases the day after salute for a change. Chucked the freebie Quar together to test the speed paint pens I acquired.

What can I say but whoops… #salute52 #salute2025
