Winter stick with Kilroy

For this year 2026. Mark and I will have lived together for 25 years, been married for 20 and will be his 60th birthday and the trip to Japan in September.

What was 2025? I started by finding cancer had spread. It got removed by magic wire. Then probably didn't have cancer.That sent me into a bit of a downer. Had a trip to Italy with Mum, who as aged a lot this the year of her 90th birthday. Confuzzled was fun. We booked our trip to Japan next year.

Seems I got to 10 Mm on my bike without noticing.

Decided to move the fox and squirrel upstairs. Squirrel is standing on Henry’s ashes.

We might have bought something from a very old n soon to be closed art shop in Cambridge.

BY THE WAY If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2. There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security. Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation." TURN IT OFF.

I hate to admit this was really well done. But this was really well done.

Brain melting week. So , curry.

In discussion with a computer scientist from the University of Cambridge last night: Me: "you've described some of the things that AI is good at. How would you describe the category of things it's not good at? **pause** Him: "Anything where it has to be right".

I know a fae trap when I see one

I’ve wanted to see a Prevost squirrel for about twenty years. Now I have at Shepreth Wildlife Park.

Sticktember

Not as hard as expected. Even managed to reconstruct bin.

August sticks.

Sterling makes fantastic avatars for VRchat and has been a friend since I first stepped foot in the Train Station attending my first Leeds meet back in 2013. I looked like a lost sheep trying to find faces I didn't know, but Sterling was there with a smile. <3 @sterlinggryph.bsky.social

I should have posted this good news earlier. No chemotherapy and back in three months for scan. Text Satisfactory appearance of the segment 7 ablation zone. Normal appearance of the remainder of the liver with no liver metastases. No concerning findings within the remaining solid abdominal viscera

Hot sticks

Actually managed a countryside walk with a very good Dutch friend. This made me very happy.

Fursuit Friday for a change @kadei.net

Goodbye @confuzzled.org.uk and thank you. It’s been a blast. Love you all.

Draw me like one of your French squirrels.

We are on our way. Tradition maintained

RIP, Norm.

Took me far too long to realise the American “squirrel” rhymes with “girl” and just thought @ryannorth.ca had gone mad

I now have a date... so can be more public about this. Next Thu I will be going into day surgery at Addenbrookes to get a metastatic tumour removed from my liver by ablation (literally burning it away). Only micro surgery via a wire, so recovery shouldn't be too bad.
