There’s Romans to smash
She’s going to reduce

I can’t stress enough how much I love reading anything written by Donal Ryan, even if he is cracking my heart in two with it

I enjoyed the new contractor looking at the previous work done in the flat & saying ‘last guy was clearly a ‘why do a job when you can do half a one’ type’ - I mean, I don’t even think he did half a one to be honest!

Ah another massive problem in my flat - what fun!! Renting an ancient flat in Bath brings discoveries every day 😳

Please all lend me your luck for a lottery win tonight!!

I’ve just seen the whole series 4 of My Brilliant Friend is eventually on Now tv, so that’s changed how the next week of my life is going to look!!

@nigelslater.bsky.social hello! I’m thinking about Christmas dinner very early (first time hosting 😊) would your parsnip loaf be one you could prep the night before, ready to just be put in the oven? Thank you! Santa 🧑‍🎄

Ok being from Newcastle & living in the south I often get people asking me to say stuff like ‘ha’way’ & ‘wey aye man’, but a girl overheard me talking tonight, said she loved my accent & asked me to say ‘beans on toast’?!!

I mean, I did & she was very happy, but I don’t understand!

You see it, you share it. Them's the rules.
The Other Place had a number of traditions which hopefully will make it over to BlueSky. On an entirely unrelated note, I saw this, and had to share. ☔😄

Why can I hear drumming in the village right now?! & not in a band type drumming, this is marching drumming, who is coming under the cover of darkness?!

Well, it hasn’t taken me long until first moaning message (what do we say instead of tweet?!)

My stupid listed building/ancient wooden frame/single pane windows have struck again - another pane of glass sunk into the wood, can push an envelope straight through the gap to outside!

So are we all committing? Is this the place that’s won from all the other options to be where we migrate too?

I basically want the other place turned off so I don’t have to jump between the two!
