Honestly for the love of Jesus do these transport police have nothing better to do with their time than prosecuting people for wearing a freaking roller skate. They took some poor guy to court for rolling into a station and fined him £580. Surely arresting the platform announcers for being impossible to understand would be a more worthwhile use of their time.

I’ve got a problem
I can’t go into any shop that sells dog toys and come out without at least one. Result is plain to see. We have more than one mountain going on here.

Weekend fun.
Thought I had Covid yesterday. Had three larger whiskeys last night and today I’m full of beans. Irish medicine is the best ever. Anyway had a go at cleaning the downstairs. Not bad even if I say so myself.



The folding mountain
Okay so I’ve tackled my nemesis and now I’m faced with the next challenge. The gawd forsaken folding mountain. No rest for the wicked!

The ironing mountain
For the past month I have been avoiding all ironing duties resulting in the largest ironing mountain in south Reading. To say I’ve been procrastinating to an industrial scale would bean understatement. Anyway today I shall tackle it or throw it all in the bin and go out to buy a new wardrobe.

So while I was on a break from the fabulous trailer trailer at Electric Picnic this year I ran into this guy and his friends took a photo. Today one of my friends shared it in our WhatsApp group as it turns out he’s a friend of her daughters. Totes hillare. Such a small world (which is why I left Ireland in the first place 🤣🤣)
Not an open book
They may be known for selling them but Amazon were more of a closed book with tight lips this week after a data centre issue in Virginia took the internet down. Even I was blocked from posting to my beloved blog (gasp). Between alphabet Amazon and Microsoft the whole internet is tied up. Most people don’t fully understand how catastrophic it would be if they were all to go down. banking, utilities, hospitals would all go offline and I wouldn’t be able to upload pics to my site. Total disaster basically.
Interior design masters

I absolutely love what they’ve done with the place. Really opened it up!
