Well, that's self-explanatory, I think.

@ifIwerenotanandroid yes have a right job, in the borders with my heels its i nightmare, and my tights make me all sweaty.

Plus my dress drags through the mud.

Luckily i have a change of dress in the van and plenty of wipes so by the time i get home am looking good for the husband.

Not

Fine!

< stomps off to shop>

<stomps back from shop stopping to sit on a wall and eat a snowball>

There was only one box of 6 left and someone had already eaten one. So these five will have to suffice.

<wipes coconut flakes off top>

And yes they are slightly squashed I may have accidentally sat on them when I stopped for a quick breather on my way back

@Boiledbeetle 😂😂😂

I think that I have worked out where all the American Christian Alt-right money is going. Every time that I get a drink or something to eat, I am presented with a chit. The chit has a vague description of what I have ordered (drinks or food) and I scribble JLG across the bottom. I have been doing this for several weeks but nobody has asked me to settle my chits. Is @Boiledbeetle settling all our bills with this mysterious funding? The TRAs need to know.

I scribble 'cake' on mine. Then I get a cake given to me 😃 I love confusing the gerbils.

The trees on the slopes of Peak Woo are slipping into their Autumn colours.

It's lovely to sit by a window, cuddling a quokka or one of the Spartacats, sipping wine, mulled cider or hot chocolate, listening to the fire crackle. Reading a book with your feet resting on a sleepy pig.

I should probably pop outside to have a look for this comet but there's no rush. If I miss it, it'll be back in 800 years.

All bills are miraculously settled the second you leave the pub. It has nothing to do with using the pub to launder money!

I'm also raking in a fortune getting people to fall for my telephone and email scams to give generously after receiving my begging calls and emails raising money on behalf of poor mistreated crickets!I

Oh and yeah I still haven't got around to sending everyone their cut of the far right wonga we get every time we denounce gender ideology! Must get that sorted!

I've just looked at the weather app instead, from which I deduce I'd see bugger all except thick raincloud. Shame.

If Tunnock's supply can't keep up with the demand, the wondrous Snowcreams (made in Co Offaly donchaknow) are now available.

No Mumsnet, it is not a sensitive image

It's a very sensitive image for me. On a diet.
Waaaaaahhhhh....

I must get a gluten-free scone out of the freezer so the pub can give me 'the same thing' as everyone who gathers for elevenses later. I hope the Bluestocking doesn't need its customers to bring their own grub.

Of course not, though some like doing so hence there are no rules here against BYO.

I'm shopping, saw this and thought of you lot.

This is Chocolate Week, you know (14-20 Oct) - 'chocolate flavour coating' is iffy at any time, but during Chocolate Week?!

Ummmm... distinguishable from the other 51, like, how?

@MarieDeGournay Good point. However, that won't stop me next week saying, "How could you? So soon after Chocolate Week!". I've learned well - don't ask me who from.😉

Btw, the Baroness has written a letter. About a 'Butlins Bang Face Weekender'.

Trying to get the AI to illustrate Emma's letter is hilarious. This is her doing Northern soul dancing, apparently.

More attempts...

And this is her in a mosh pit.

I've given up chocolate for now, partly to lose weight and partly to support DH, newly diagnosed with diabetes. Strangely, I'm.not missing it as much as I expected, but think Christmas will be difficult as chocolate is usually better then!

Happy Birthday to the Baroness!

83 today!

I hope she's a life member of the Bluestocking.

Many happy returns Baroness 😊

Gosh her letter is totally hilarious can we invite her here for a cola?

Update on the Terf Tumblers. Lettering going on now, onto my prototype.
