Columbo is included in Prine and I’m hooked again. Watching it with the 8 yr old who is blown away that everyone smokes. Weird how that leaps out over the fashion, cars or the fact everyone who is supposed to be 35 looks 105. Peter Falk is 40 in this photo and he looks like my dad. I’m 48 😂

I started to watch Amsterdam Empire and it's really good. There are subtitles and a dubbed version for non-Dutch speakers

Mr Socks has been missing for a whole week. I’m gutted, pretty sure he’s gone for good but got a little tiny bit of hope in my heart still. He was a very good boy 💔

A weekend of storms led to Christmas crafts to get ahead of the game. I usually start worrying about Xmas on 20 December so this is unusual to say the least. 🎄

Ordered curry sauce in a Dutch chippy. My hopes were not high but wtf is this? Tastes like HP with tandoori seasoning stirred in. It’s not offensive but it’s not curry sauce

Attempting to learn Tunisian crochet. It’s like starting again, like the last years of normal crochet counts for nothing. Hold and tension totally different and my hands already hurt. And I love it, it’s brilliant. Wish I’d started with this 🧶 #tunisiancrochet

I’ve started to make a jumper and I’m not feeling it. Should I put it down and start something else or keep on keeping on until I do like it/frog it in frustration? 🧶

I am planning a sweater but this is one of the first multicolour things I have made where the yarn isn't a colour changing one (so no decisions needed). I feel like I've forgotten anything vaguely related to colour theory. Does this all look ok? Brown main colour, others in stripes. 🧶

Had a day trip to Ephesus, it’s an incredible place. Over the last 8000 years it’s seen at least 5 civilisations and mentioned in Bible. Worth all your efforts to visit it.

I hate that someone graffitied the war memorial but also, they’re not wrong. Never Again is right now.
