Rocket is enjoying #caturday

The feijoaning!

He almost fits into some of Piper’s old clothes. (Bit surprised how little he is when the floof is contained) #MemphisTheMalshi

Heard through the ceiling of my apartment tonight: (cat wailing) Person: No!! (cat wails some more) Person: You do not want that! Spit it out! (even louder wailing) Person: That is a potato! You are an obligate carnivore!! #ahcats #lifeinapartments

Turns and re-enters the garden "And another thing..." Removes final egg, best-hidden, egg

Wander round garden distractedly, comment on the flowers in a rambling anecdote, amble to the gate, turn back and then unerringly scoop up every egg?

Miss Marple: Your nephew Raymond's wife gossips to you about her neighbor's romantic affair. This will be the key to deducing that one of the eggs contains an emerald that was stolen from the squire's aunt, The Viscountess. Explain in metaphor while knitting a baby blanket for the vicar's niece.

Hercule Poirot would be frustrated that the eggs aren't all the exact same size and colour.

Inspector Rebus: find a pub that sells pickled eggs. Job done. 🍺

bad news

Then & Now: View of Kikyomon in the Imperial Palace Gardens in Tokyo In 2022 - My 🇯🇵sales director: “Nice, where is that?” Me: “Eh, look out your window!”🤣 In 1929 - by Hasui, Kawase. This, my original version has “European style clouds”, later version has “Japanese Clouds”

I saw so many pitcher plants

Athena just made this charcuterie board for a get together tonight. You can be jealous.

The White House put up Cadbury decorations for Easter.

Sir, a second bird is at the feeder

A weird thing happened post marriage my address was changed on the electoral roll. They changed my address to my husband’s place! Straight away I changed it back! I have been on the Māori for the last two elections. #NZpol Reminder if you want to change rolls need to before August!

ooops ☺️

Dan Rather represents an era when journalism wasn't as polarized into political groups. I miss those days. 😭

today’s swim at Langland

Originally, of course, it was Storm UK Gold Classics.

This election season, I'll pretend to be interested in Amanda Luxon's opinions on any subject the instant she gets her name on a ballot line. Until then... #nzpol

When people say "save the bees," in the US we really need to include native bees, which do not include honeybees. Honeybees are invasive. They are not the worst invasive species out there; they have positive effects as well as negative. But they're invasive.

Honestly I think this is the most devastating paragraph in all of Pratchett (if only the relevant people would read it...)

Discworld QOTD, from Going Postal

The author is a professor of history here at Purdue and he just came out with a book on the Japanese space program, which I’ll also have to check out. www.sup.org/books/asian-...

Ahhhh, all self respecting young lads had a crush on Janet Ellis and her bizarrely slim torso, dislocated shoulders, and 8” long fingers…

St Agnes, Kennington Park: the new fire at the Easter vigil. Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!

the farmers co-op on harris has marigolds and now so do i. this is so important for my mental well being.

Update

Then how about not trying to rape a person if you find the consequences too ‘huge’. Ffs. “Mr Luca Richards is in a position where the mere fact of a conviction for assault with intent to rape is a huge punishment.” #nzpol

My brain is hilariously bad at holding a pattern right through a page, but the quiet of this is relaxing all the same.

Judas Iscariot was paid 30 pieces of silver for turning Jesus Christ in to the Roman authorities. But he made nearly 10 times that amount by placing a Polymarket bet accurately predicting the day of Christ’s death.

Eurostar's main services run straight through the battlefields of the Great War, which goes some way to explain their attitude towards spicy souvenirs

Daisy (who bought my old house) is running the London Marathon in a week's time, raising money for RASASC Guildford, which supports people who have been through rape/sexual abuse. An amazing cause, now as much as ever, so bung them a few quid: www.justgiving.com/page/daisy-a... www.rasasc.org

Pekapeka’s favourite game is losing things under the fridge. There’s at least one peg wedged under there so firmly we cannot move it.
