@Notonthestairs

Does you have the mark upon thy ead? If so, ye may pass. If nay, thou must be thrown into the river to test if thou be a leftist. If thou float, thou shalt be a Guardian reader.

If thou drown, ye shall be pure.

😅

I’m quite buoyant 🧙 😂

The scaffolding is going up on Friday around my house for roof repairs.

Gorgeous cake @ilovesooty

My favourite dish this summer has been pasta al limone. Delicious.

Thanks for starting the new thread DuncinToffee, I was really disheartened to see my area now has flags hanging limply from lampposts, I thought it wouldn't happen.

Ilovesooty, very nice looking cake. I can't afford cake as I am saving my money for taxes, there be rumours of an education tax...

Probably good I missed it then!

That looks awful.

I was joking when I said white dogs should watch their backs but it's only a matter of time.

Nick Eardley is desperate. BBC.

😬

Not just dogs. Bald men of a sleepy disposition in the sun and saddleback pigs need to take care

Perhaps I should hide mine 😱 especially as she is a Labour voter, best keep the little white cat in too!

Very cute.

Twats 😞

Doing the rounds after airing on Sky.

Drunk racists interrupt her interview in Nuneaton. Twitter and blue sky mystified why they had their faces blurred out

I wish you a fortnight free of Weather. The capital W sort of Weather. We had a blizzard when our roof was done 😂

What? Not even the Kernow flag?

Oh my word she is gorgeous ☺️

Well I had my first proper cluster attack a few hours ago in weeks. So I’ve been awake and catching up and reading.

AR has a court order saying she can’t discuss the tax affair (doesn’t state why just she’s been told not to discuss it) but it clearly states she owns one home.

Telegraph has a good interview with Starmer and even they couldn’t make it negative because he’s actually really good at comms 1:1.

David Warburton was found dead last week - unexpected but not suspicious. Read into that what you like after his resignation 2 years ago.

I want caramel cake with fruit - best one of my 5 a day I can think of!

pointy that’s great re cats fundraiser. I’m GF and was very jealous to miss out on your GF treats!

DS has gone off to training (thank goodness it’s not my run this morning!) and will be back about 7.30.

Has anyone watched a the Thursday Murder club? Watched it yesterday and loved it!

I’m going to try and get some rest.

I am awake after having a weird dream about my horrible ex, in which we were back together. Very glad to wake up from that! Having a cup of tea.

I wonder if the court order is related to Rayner's divorce? Legitimate reason or not, she will be crucified over it, as per.

Hope you feel better soon @itsgettingweird. I'm going back to bed.

Yeah I wondered the same about being related to the divorce. It explained she couldn’t make a public comment because she’s court ordered not to.

But that won’t stop the vultures unfortunately.

Sorry to hear of vivid dreams. I get them with clusters and have had some odd ones last night but luckily none about horrid ex!

managed to doze for 30 minutes but it’s like my eyes can’t stay shut - it’s very hard to explain!

so now I’m awake and up but knackered and typically I’ve got loads to do today as back to school tomorrow. Thankfully it’s an inset day and I’m just doing training whereas Thursday inset I’m leading it all day. I should be back to some kinda alert by then!

Morning all. Very long time lurker delurking… @Lalgarh we saw that Sky piece yesterday; utterly horrified and so, so angry with the people at the top driving this.

@itsgettingweird gentle hugs. Hope you manage to rest a bit today.

pic of Boss Cat for tax…

Haha ‘sensitive image’ ! Well he is a bit lefty; I wouldn’t say woke though 😅 Have another one; quite relaxed, I would say!

That's horrendous.

Faces blurred because of the small kids?
