    Doing a donation of items to the shelter I got Toby from this weekend. I prefer to donate physical items, so reached out to them to see what they needed. Have got some rabbit food, kong toys to stuff and freeze, cooling mats, will go out tomorrow and buy some blankets and basic training treats. Am preparing myself for the waterworks from myself.

      Some of those pets will be very grateful, maybe even taking their toys and blankets with them to new homes

    Looking forward to the nearby house parties they’re known to do 🤘

        It needs to be washed. There’s brown patches where he’s wiped arse unless he’s gotten into the Vegemite.

      I get the fresh one ready to go and when the pet gets up I swap them over lightning fast

    Well that was a disaster. I tried to heat up a container of purchased fried rice for din dins. Something in it had a hard shell, and esploded all over the microwave. Not on my bucket list for Thursday night - cleaning the microwave including picking rice out of the ventilation grids. The less said about the state of the turntable the better. I didn’t know takeaway food containers could actually melt but this one did. Will not be purchasing from that outlet again. On the plus side - I now have a spotlessly clean microwave oven. And every reason to do something in the airfryer for dins.

    One great thing about getting older is my memory seems to be going… what’s the positive you say? Well, tonight it means that I realised I totally forgot I love Spoon and that seeing them play this live and the whole crowd just going nuts is a pretty fucking good memory. Hardest Cut

      I came here to say that! It’s nice now the sun has moved around a bit for summer I can see the sunset from my loungeroom window. The bit where the sun drops down low enough to try and sear my eyeballs out is less nice, but the sunset is definitely appreciated.

    nearly all today’s garden tasks done, just didn’t move a big pot, too heavy, and couldn’t repot another because the plant is too big for the pot I had for it. But so much cleaning up done, filled the two garden bins again!

    Tomorrow I have to shop for some Australiana for the Young Seagoons and friends. I am excite. :) 😊😭

    All I’ve been doing these days is drinking tea and trying to get the uni shit done. Have made plans for next week to leave the house for reasons other than work so I have to get shit done faster. Let’s see if this works. Spoiler: it won’t.

    Listening to the documentary of BBC Radio I have heard many interviews, many voices, many real time recordings of events I have never heard before.

    On side 3 I heard Howard Carter interviewed, Hitler and Mussolini speaking, the first Bing Crosby, the Announcement of War by Chamberlain, real sound recordings and reporting of the Blitz of London, Vera Lynn speaking on the radio, Churchill’s announcement of the fall of France.

    It was fascinating and engrossing.

    Chill day. Bit quiet because the guy I’m eventually taking over from has been under the pump.

    BBQ after work tomorrow is pretty chill though.

      iirc where you live doesn’t have a train line? Is it realistic to move somewhere closer with better transport? Might have to sacrifice space though.
