Yes! Let’s do that - WhatsApp or here?
Definitely finishing DYPOTBOTD* tonight and was planning on starting K&C next
*Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead (I just like using the initialism because it is fun)
Why do people keep going on about self isolation as though it’s now mandatory for everyone? And all the memes etc
(Not on here)
in the uk, people probably trying to survive by acting as if the Tories actually give any semblance of a shit
Either’s good! That is an amazing initialism. One of those where I’d use the initialism for a while, but then, if I got bored of it, I could then use the full title which is also hooftastic
Watching Judge John Deed
We all know there is and there’s some kind of patent tribunal on standby in case @weeber infringes his trademark.
Evening all!
Wor Lass is in overnight but they seem to think she might get an operation tomorrow. I’m not convinced yet.
Haven’t checked my work email to see if I need to be in the building tomorrow.
Might drink wine.
Fucking hell, Jimbo’s bedtime was painful. I run out of options as time goes on, and it got to the point where he was asking me to make up stories
Sorry you’re having such a shit time at the moment, Mrs Keith’s operation goes well.
Start making up stories from stuff you’ve heard on here. Epimer the Poo Monster could be a good character
Oh, I had one of those super rare moments of parenting genius earlier after hoovering the front room and moving all the toys and etc to get to places: I got R to enthusiastically help me tidy things up by calling it ‘rearranging’ instead.
That’s my favourite bit!
She knows to go to bed once she’s heard the story of Walter the Otter’s Unexpected Tax Bill.
I’ll be happy if it goes at all.
There are plenty of people bringing up kids on their own in poorer heath or circumstances than mine. I just moan about it on here more often.
Thanks though!
Would read.
R only gets ‘The Little Chick Who Couldn’t Get to Sleep’ from me (spoiler: the chick gets to sleep in the end), no stories beyond that or it’d never end.
I don’t know if kids have evolved out of this particular trick yet, but my parents used to do the old “I bet you can’t do (x) in (y amount of) seconds”
Still do tbh
Ah, that’s a great one, reckon I could definitely catch R in that for some difficult tasks!
Having a race is good too. Bry I can get my shoes/clothes etc on quicker than you, then deliberately put them on backwards etc.
It doesn’t matter if there’s people worse off that you, you can still be having a crap time! If you’re free one lunchtime I’ll buy you lunch if you want.
