She is being Akward not thinking about her children at all.

Ok, thought I would try to get to the bottom of this after @PotteryChuck and @AngelinaFibres decided to involve the Bison.🤬
Done some digging around and apparently the Bison is called Brian which is how the confusion came about.😱 Have been speaking to him (Mrs now identifies are Brian the Bison) and he does indeed contain hand washing facilities. He is available for parties, weddings, festivals etc but not on Tuesdays & Wednesdays as he has his hair (fur?) done on a Tuesday and goes to the pictures on a Wednesday (this week he is also having his worming treatment and a troublesome tick removed so won't be at his best).

We have been chatting and we are going out for a meal the following week (well, a graze I suppose) and if all goes well he is going to introduce me to the rest of the herd.

So, all's well that ends well so let's hear no more about the salad strainer.🙄

It was her idea to have the show introduced by her own daughter dressed as a toilet brush. I think that tells us all we need to know.

Aiden is that you, hope you're ok and still working M and S.

Is this anything to do with the Royal Family?

So much for the foolproof code, foiled at the first hurdle.☹️

I admit it, I am Camilla.👸

Sorry its taken me so long to reply OP, I've just flown to Rome to scream in the Cistine Chapel on your behalf.

This always makes me laugh when it happens:

Ohhh...

Autofill.

MrBlobbyScaresMe · 01/02/2026 05:35

Have you tried turning it off and on again?
If that fails, put it in a tub of rice 🤞🤌

HelenaWaiting · 01/02/2026 06:38

I find eating live yoghurt clears it up.

Billybagpuss · 01/02/2026 06:48

But did you turn off the WiFi?

Nourishinghandcream · 31/01/2026 19:02

That happened to us as well........ nasty cheap rubbish ☹️

We repaired ours with a washing up liquid bottle and some sticky backed plastic, we then jazzed it up with some wallpaper.
Down Shep!🐶

Would wood chip work
If I don't have any anaglypta?🤔

I agree.

I think.

HenceWhy · 01/02/2026 16:00

Sigh - we've lost sight of what a normal level of Akward is.

Missmarplesknittingbuddy · 01/02/2026 16:27

I was going to guess it's cycling ( it's always cycling), but then I read a bison may be involved and they are known for their lack of balance and inability to brake in time .

WaitingfortheThingtoHappen · 01/02/2026 17:05

I blame the dog. If she hadn't swallowed the rubber ball, the vet wouldn't have got involved and none of this would have happened.

HenceWhy · 01/02/2026 17:48

FFS - can we stop with the spoilers. Some of us are watching on catch up.

How many vets are qualified to treat bison though?

Not many in Chipping Camden. That's the problem.

I think the dusty pink is a more flattering colour on him tbh.
