Improbable juxtaposition of businesses near Hitchin station:
The First Steps Day Nursery and... NO MERCY BOXING GYM. I feel like one of you is in the wrong place.
But special mention for Belgium because he really reminds me of the fireman from Monaco on 30 Rock who puts out fires with a bucket of money #Eurovision

The little one is a hardback recovering of my very tatty copy of Tina Fey's Bossypants and the big one is a lay-flat sketchbook. The fabric from both are donations from my mother's quilting stash 🥰

Is there a word for the compulsion I feel to respond when I hear the phrase "It gave me pause..." With "Well, they look like hands to me!"

Appa.
Extremely old soul. Has seen many many things across the ages. Gentle, sweet, kind, with a core of steel. Prone to slapstick comedy.
Loves: snuggles, the radiator, greek yoghurt
Hates: the vacuum cleaner, the doorbell, suitcases with wheels

Momo.
Beautiful silly boy with the grace of a runway model and the voice of a foghorn.
Loves: Obsessively licking my head during important Teams meetings, small fluffy mice toys, playing fetch
Hates: Being in a car, any kind of mild inconvenience

The French word pamplemousse (one of my all-time favourites) derives from the Dutch ‘pompelmoes,’ probably constructed from pompel (‘big’ or ‘swollen’) + limoes (‘lemons’). So a French grapefruit is essentially a ‘fat lemon’ or, as the kids these days would say, a ‘chonky citrus’

The residents of the Spanish village Villar de Corneja, where the average age is 75, toast the New Year 12 hours before the rest of their country in a collective decision to get to bed at a decent hour.
This village has no idiot.
