Just seen an episode of Bluey I’ve not seen before. Had no idea this was possible

I tried reading a book about locksmiths but I couldn’t get into it

Who else up since 5.30 playing Brio

Never read beyond the first sentence of the blurb on the back of a book. They’ll casually mention a plot twist that doesn’t happen until page 140: THEY JUST DGAF

Me in a previous era 2004 during an unfulfilling and brief financial services phase (a friend got me the job and I made pretty okay money for six months basically printing weekly reports & putting them in envelopes). At the top of the gherkin on a disappointingly gloomy day

I can tell autumn has fully arrived as nextdoor are hoovering their lawn daily

In bed before nine. What of it? Fight me.

£8 absolute bargain in the chazza shop today. Bit of palaver loading it into the car admittedly but still a ste

Every single reply to this is an American thinking it's about the US. There are massive context clues in the post which show it's obviously not about the US.

Rented Sinners from Amazon as a little treat to myself. Couldn’t stay awake on evening 1, evening 2 was busy, and I forgot about the 48 hour rule didn’t I

This evening is testing my no heating till October half term resolve

Anyhow briefly in Winchester. When I was a teen, the Buttercross was the scheduled meeting place, or there was always someone just there for a chat. Sometimes you couldn’t even get a step to perch on, but I notice hardly anyone sits there anymore. They’ve all got phones now you see: it’s redundant

I watched someone get bullied off here today for trying to consider other people’s perspectives. My personal rule is to steer clear of self-proclaimed Good People, because they’re usually trying to mask personality defects which ooze hate

My son has been invited to the class tough boy’s birthday party, so I’m in the toy shop looking for suitably violent bit of tat for a present

Just had a Stilton toastie, if anyone’s wondering what that smell is

One of those mornings where putting my contacts in is like trying to balance a dinner plate on a WD40ed snooker ball

I know this is a massive ick giver, but a nice big glass of milk with my dinner. I drink it up.

Me and who tho

Someone in this house who is not me regularly (but not regular enough that I learn) changes the setting on the toaster and doesn’t change it back afterwards #ECHR

No colonoscopy chat yet this week, but there’s been a lot of flu jab discourse

Great weather day to catch up with the Anglesey fam. From Mynydd Parys could clearly see the hills on the Isle of Man for the first ever time (55 miles) and a hint of the southern Fells (75 miles). At Bull Bay here panning round to Amlwch (little glimpse of the bromine plant tower, chemicals fans)

being awoken by geese is like a gaggle of clowns honking outside my bedroom window, signifying the beginning of life’s daily horrors but it’s ok

Just noticed Cher’s track name on my iPod has changed to, Yes I Did Turn Back Time. The crazy bitch finally did it!

It were a mad old summer that the larger dahlias are only now throwing up enough blooms for the there to be enough for indoors without leaving the plant bare. Some only just about to flower at all

House prices are INSANE

Rare cinema trip tonight. Important to put the unfortunateness of 28 Years Later behind me

Just seen my annoying neighbour has been in a non-serious but probably car-totalling collision

Not saying that there are no young people on Bluesky, but in recent weeks five people I follow have mentioned upcoming colonoscopies

Love subscribing to Daddit on Reddit, because every day there’s a post like this, and I read them whilst laughing manically like the religious guy in a war movie who goes mad

Your dad is doing laps on the bypass again

13 months apart, waiting for ma off the train

keeping it on the low down that I’m broadly fine with an ID card

What are we thinking about houses with their external Hallowe’en decs already up?

Amongst all this, 5.50 this morning I’m lying in bed, awake but gathering my thoughts in the dark as a child chatters pottering around. “I want this machine on,” as he fiddles with the dehumidifier. Go for it, it’s off at the wall though. Then a loud splash as he pulls out the 3/4 full drip tray

Had a dream that nextdoor had had a fresh dump of gravel on their driveway, making mine in comparison look really threadbare and I was really irked as a result. It’s my most bourgeoisie one yet

Spent the last hour thinking about the child voice actors on an episode of Hey Duggee, and the complex family dynamics for two siblings to have a triple barrelled surname, but the third to merely be double barrelled. THIS IS WHY I CANT GET ANYTHING DONE

The anxious cat is polishing his ample belly until it gleams

Coating an outside wall with Stormdry, which depending on who you speak to is either a really good idea or a massive waste of time, so I feel very ambivalent about losing my morning to doing this

Made a gardening pal

Eat the rainbow (rate my plate)

“Daddy look at her bum, look at her wiggly bum, it’s wiggling! Daddy!”

Wallop. Happy equinox everyone.

For every like this post gets I will be unnecessarily unpleasant about a song I don’t care for.

I’ve been wandering about on a 4th century BC hillfort (Blackbury Camp, Devon) on this very mellow autumn equinox.

A year ago, hundreds of House Martins preparing to fly south

The cat is on a diet - much to his chagrin - after a humiliating revelation at the vet last month, and fair play to him after zero confirmed kills so far this year has started mousing with vengeance

Hi guys, which should I read next please?

Been up since 5.45 as I thought I heard the doorbell and briefly got up to investigate before deciding it was probably a dream. But no, there’s an Evri parcel on the doorstep. HE RANG THE FUCKING BELL.

Guess where I am this afternoon
