I’d have been happy with Brains, but it was a Fullers pub, so not available.
What a perfect nest.
In a lilac tree too if I’m not mistaken.
In rather short supply generally of late, from what I’ve seen.
Poor Birdie…

I just had to make do wiv other delicious Beer.
Talking of which,
There seems to have been disruption of the rain supply chain

Morning all
That looks blackbird nest like
I had one in an ornamental box tree last year
Such clever wee things our garden birds are…
Bacon butties ready
Just been told that the baked goods salem I was going to bake for today id cancelled
With 4 cases of corvids in a ten mile radius from ABI office and day facility and the 2 residential homes for those not able to cope in the community form a number of reasons it would seem rather silly to expose the folk like me who depend on the charity to a nasty new disease
Very wise, Twellsy

Sooo I am off shopping on wheels
With an interesting list of things NOT to buy as we are rallying this weekend and I am on a freeezer and fridge clear out to give em a good once a year type of clean
After shopping Bulu will be finished and I will ask B to knit him an ABI t shirt
She is waaaay better than me at making up a pattern
Though it will be a remote speaking to each other as she is determined NOT to pass any gerrrummms my way
That’s a good friend - one who puts your welfare in front of desires to sit and chat and make things together
I feel so lucky to have her as a friend
Should you be going out at all, Twellsy?

Oh, I say, this is Jolly Well Not On.
How can I prudently stock up when every other bugger has panic-bought the contents of Lidl? Aye, it’s one of those irregular ones: I am a prudent housewife, you panic buy, she is a Hoarder and wants locking up.
No pasta. At all (except the very fancy giant fusilli from Italian week). No corned beef. Six sad cans of tuna. Oil - olive and other - almost gone. All handwashes (not that I wanted any) gone. Deodorant almost gone, ditto toothpaste. Bog roll virtually stripped. Rather a lot of canned soup left, from which I deduce that it is Nasty.
Plenty of frozen peas, though Also fresh produce.
But is there cat food? Enquiring moggies want to know.
That’s a Bugga, Gus
I use liquid hand wash, & topped up my bottle from a refill pack yesterday
We have a Noo Lidl, which I haven’t yet steeled myself to visit

In the shop? I didn’t look. In Oaf’s current stash - c.160 pouches and 50+ tiny tins, plus a full pack of biscuits. He is rather better provided for than I am
In a worst case scenario, therefore, I shall have to fatten him up as much as possible and then cook him, pore little fellow.
Or train him to keep you fed by bringing a constant supply of mice, small birds, neighbourhood children, etc.
(Yes, I know, but in tough times you have to relax your food standards a bit and not worry about what the children have been eating.)
Tsk. The Very Idea, Sparrer.
Actually, I am very happy to say that he has never brought me anything, alive or less so. Whereas Pidgelump did bring in very lively mice. I think she felt the exercise was good for me.
Loud Swearing & Foul Oaths
I have caught my hand inna sliding door & have bruised 3 of me fingers.
Sigh
Had taken me gloves orff to wash them
An Medicinal might help, I suppose…

Oh Bluddy Hell, Dahlink. Ouch. Unfair to Chatelaines, that sort of thing. Down with it!
Oh, and in an entirely different sense, down with the vodotchka!
