They’re not good here in Norfolk nowadays unfortunately. Overstretched and papering over the cracks.
I don’t know the ins and outs of what you’ve been through but it sounds completely out of order to expect a victim to take responsibility for their abuser. Anything to pass the buck.

So glad to see you back here. I’ve missed you. I thought you’d like to ‘share’ the alstromerias my mum bought me last weekend. X

It’s tough isn’t it. I just wish I’d known sooner.

Trying to get help for a mental health issue or neurodevelopmental condition (which are not the same things, Mr Streeting) is already practically impossible. I don’t trust this government to improve on this.

Nope, not here in Norfolk. It is wet and windy and not really light at all.

The #FirstBirdOfMyDay was just a silhouette this morning in the half light: A very large lone gull, buffeted by the wind, either a Great Black Backed or Herring.

What a glorious hedgerow.

Not only that, it is ‘FEWER calories’ FFS!!!🤬

Wow, that’s proper blue! It’s proper grey here. 🤣

The sky was filled with 100s (1000’s?) of pink footed geese this morning trailing in long skeins heading inland. The sound of their calls was a wonderful cacophony. It gave me goosepimples! Maybe that’s where they got their name? #FirstBirdOfMyDay

A few have us as Great Britain between Ghana and Greece OR at the beginning of the G’s. I’ve often lost the will to live by the time I’ve found where I live. 🤬

I hate dropdown lists, especially countries. In the UK, most sites list us as United Kingdom, after United Arab Emirates and before United States, some list us as UK, between Uganda or Ukraine OR at the beginning of the U’s between UAE and USA….

Oh no. Now you’ve gone and given me an idea. I must go and taste mine. Hope I don’t taste too much. 🥴

That’s great for three reasons: Sharing
Avoiding waste
You really don’t want holly in your compost. 😖😂

That would stick in my head too.

I’d like to think it was an ironic gesture but I suspect not.
