I rang the bank to inform them of my mum's death and got "Hope you have a lovely day!" as a goodbye.

Just had a roast dinner with all the trimmings. I had beef with pom poms, tassels, bobbles and fringes.

One can only hope that the whole AI business (apart perhaps from the medical applications that seem to be working for some screening progs) crashes and burns.

As long as coach trips aren't on the job description, I'd be grand.

Written in 1983 but still true.

A reference of Alexa: She is clever. She is in Maths Division 1 and French Division1. She plays the flute. She is good but she quite often plays when she's not supposed to. She is good at music and a good singer. She is quite small. She has a weak stomach if something horrible is done. She is sick on coach trips. she has nice hair. She should not have much trouble getting a job or doing O' levels. Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Fiona Lowdon.

I've asked them why. I don't suspect they'll reply.

Alexa Wilson @alexadwilson.bsky.social · 4h

They say it's a slur and yet...

BTW, your Alt description is brilliant.

That's beautiful and very unusual. I've found a tapestry Mummy started in Africa but never finished. They moved back to the UK in 1964! I'm going to see if I can find the wool to finish it.

It's not been repeated on the BBC as far as I know and it's not on iPlayer.

Alexa Wilson @alexadwilson.bsky.social · 5h

I wonder why they didn't blank out the ableist slur?

Alexa Wilson @alexadwilson.bsky.social · 5h

YES! It was just brilliant and breath-taking at times.

15th October. Another day, another male Blackcap bathing.
The dustbin lid hidden away in the Blackthorn is the favoured spot of these birds.
