Cats, books, motorways, leftie views...all my own.
This is the face of a cat who is trying to guilt-trip me into a second helping of Dreamies. So far, he has been unsuccessful.

I was scrolling through Borrowbox looking for my next audiobook, and I noticed that Virginia Guiffre's book is reserved until November 2031...that's SIX years of folk getting 20 days per loan.

I mind that; it was a terrible time for us followers, so can't imagine how bad it was for you and Philippa.

I was looking through a storage box for a couple of documents I needed, and discovered a file full of my O, A, and S level papers. Here are the maths A-level ones...I looked through them and now feel a) old and b) stupid. I passed this one in 1983.

@craftycow.bsky.social hmm, have made a rod for my own back here. Every time I sit down, Archie wants up on my lap, and if I don't have the lap mat ready he just stares at me.

I just made chocolate shortbread rounds - not gonna lie, they are scrumptious. Yes, I ate one almost straight out of the oven. I may have eaten a second one just to, y'know, check...
