That's effing outrageous and just does not add up. How on earth can the council justify those charges. I'm so sorry that your friend is being out under this stress. He's very lucky to have friends like you to help advocate, I hope you get a resolution soon

Was it a fail, or was it a much needed self-care/rest day?

A bit early for Trick and Treat isn't it? #swans

The image shows a gang of swans approaching the pale green front door of a red brick house. It looks like they're arguing about who is going to knock on the door and demand treats...

Ah, husband did flute and trombone and played in a brass band. I did recorder like most kids. Haven't tried to play in years, would need to tune the violin now, never had enough coordination to manage anything else (e.g. guitar or piano). I envy your skills

Exciting!! I still have mine from playing as a child (until I left school at 18). I can go look what make it is if that helps? I got to about grade 5 but was never good-good, I didn't practice enough, but I loved being part of an orchestra 🎻

The image shows a small black cat standing on a desk in between the researcher (wearing a green sweater and glasses) and their laptop.

It was Bill Bailey doing the first series, sounds like they should have kept him on for series 2...

or even some of the books he wrote for younger audiences like the Bromeliad trilogy or the Johnny series... For DA you could try the Dirk Gently books (weird detective agency shenanigans).

Let me know how you get on if you do try something :)

Addie - inky, pinky, thinky 😉 @addiebabe.bsky.social · 6d

If you want to try them (and you don't have to, the need/geek world is vast and wonderful) then I'd suggest maybe looking outside of the traditional DiscWorld / Hitchhiker's... So for TP you might want to try Strata or Dark Side of the Sun (both more sci-fi fantasy and less comedy)

Great thread and lots of valuable insight for other ND and non-ND people to reflect on. Wishing you find more people that you can be alone together with x

I'm delighted with mine! It changes colour and it has glitter!! What's not to love - everyone should have one!!

The image shows a black and multi-coloured star-patterned lanyard lying across a wooden desk. On the lanyard are some pins/badges, the most recent being a colour-changing pronoun pin from Robin. My pronouns are she/her. Other pins include "girly swot" and "this is what a scientist looks like". I also have alumni pins from the Open University and the University of Portsmouth.

I pre-registered my scoping review protocol on the OSF, there's a specific template for that - not too tricky and helped create a plan for me to follow when I actually started the review...

Yikes! Sending you a virtual coffee and hope you get to recoup your sleep at a later date!
