I hope you have plans to see the musical (for Christmas I bought my sister tickets so we could both go)

Everyone has one of Those predecessors.

people who need to claim asylum should be able to claim it, the process should be swift, easy and humane, and because we as a nation are a safe country, we should provide asylum to to people who need it.

That's the bit I don't know and am now very keen for someone to tell us!

For a long time WW1 was "the Great War".

Archives drinks was both lovely and possibly slightly too much wine for a Wednesday. But let’s all do it again, yes?

I did the tomato sauce spill a week after we moved in, by which time we already knew it was going!

Same! On the same day we ditched the carpet tiles in the kitchen for vinyl.

This is amazing!

My former boss said that it was something that couldn't be taken away from him even when job changes etc made everything else harder. So not the most cheering reason to do it, but something nonetheless.

It's been nearly ten years and I still instantly recognise this room and exactly what everything on those shelves is (the banners are new and are lovely though).

A martini glass with a frothy cocktail in it and a little measuring beaker sitting beside it.

A busy week with uncertain news this evening but a French Martini (later than usual due to shopping necessity) after a lovely day out at Punchdrunk then lunch #ConfinedCocktails

Hunter Square, should be so nice. Never is.

Re-upping this to say we now have a plan, I think I’ve DMd everyone who said they were keen but please wave if I’ve missed you out or you want to come!

I've had to ask people not to do that while looking at archive material. Just ewww.

Plus side: you are now extremely awake.
Down side: literally everything else about this.

I think it both is and isn’t, there’s sometimes an undercurrent that if you’re not pro-independence then you’re not a proper Scot. But it’s much more diverse than it used to be as a country which helps.

I live in the south London one - can confirm usually not as lovely a colour.

I actually went to the supermarket to buy orgeat, they didn't have any and I bought this instead to give it a go. It works with the rum and citrus really well!

Patterned glass in my hand, kitchen hob in the background. Pattern makes it hard to see glass contents, but there’s half a lime in there as well as rum.

Starting #ConfinedCocktails with a spiced mai tai (gingerbread syrup sounded nice so subbed in for orgeat).

One of the other reports says she had an emergency blanket and bivouac bag with her but never took them out of her bag. He didn't help her take them out and leave her as safely as possible.

Scotland doesn’t have leasehold, so it’s a freehold share. That in no way explains how it actually works though.

There were two of them, but the other one was off ahead with their human instead of being delayed by adoration!

Beautiful Bernese mountain dog with black fur with white nose and brown markings on his eyebrows and cheeks.

Got to go through the park for a meeting today and met a Bernese mountain dog who was happily out greeting his fans.

That’s a real “not angry, just disappointed” face.

I think I would genuinely be happy to pay for this.

Wearing jeans today was definitely an error #soggy

I have a family member who briefly lived in a castle subdivided into flats (this has never been a barrier to the mocking)

More than earned it then!

Strong offering from M&S this year (duck!). And plans for Sicily by train, so careful optimism on some fronts.
