I like that the chopping board and the colander tone in with all the glorious red. It all looks amazing.

Fried eggs on toast for me.

Wotcha having?

It’s vodka and white rum. Tastes reasonably legit.

Snap, got mine yesterday too. I’ve been fine though.

As far as I know I’ve never had influenza and I’d like to keep it that way.

Oooh, NGV’s bringing out a heap of cool Ancient Egyptian stuff for their winter exhibition. That’ll be fun.

Product review: Lime Mojito in a cask, from Aldi.

I got carded buying this for the first time in many years. This is classy stuff. Not sure I’ve ever actually purchased a cask before?

First sip: is this just lime cordial?

Several gulps later: oh there’s the kick, this is really quite strong isn’t it.

Verdict: goes ok. Pretty tasty. Would be better in a fancy glass with some mint and fruit and shit but I couldn’t be bothered. 3.5/5 🍸🍸🍸, a solid almost-holiday in a cask.

I’m holding out out of stubbornness for now. The electric throw blanket is out though.

Lombards? They have lots of costume hats.

Oh my goodness, adorable 😍

Ouch, I’m so sorry ❤️

It’s so dark 😓

I almost want to turn the heater on for emotional support. But it’s 19 degrees inside so I will refrain. But it looks cold.

It really doesn’t help that I’ve just returned from 10 days in a tropical island resort. It’s like being plunged into winter all at once.

I’m sure it makes me Officially Old but Extraordinary Escapes with Sandi Toksvig is one of my favourite tv shows. I would love to go on a gentle and beautiful holiday with Sandi.

It looks like The Nappy Collective have a few collection points right near me so I’ll run with that. Hopefully somebody didn’t need them too desperately tonight!

My Woolies order arrived three hours late and turned out not to be mine at all. So I still don’t have any useful groceries and I need to find somewhere to donate a big box of nappies.

A Parade of Nasty Things? Were there giant politicians too?

There’s no such thing as time at the end of daylight savings, it’s all out the window. Go bananas.

Sleep well!

Angry cats are so adorable. Not that that helps. What a naughty boy!

Gorgeous colours.

I can’t get my photo to work. Which might be to do with the buy-one-get-one-free cocktails. But please know I have a spectacular view tonight.
