Not a Happy Mondays fan then, clearly..... and jeez me and cave dweller no way in hell!Either you're oversharing or I've learned a new phrase. Wasn't Sunday a 2nd virtual date? - went well then or do you and cave dweller need to update your staui?
I agree - it is brilliant. Today I tried out the new instructions that my brain had worked out while I was sleeping for the arm exercise l couldn't teach properly last week. The new instructions were absolutely spot on and everyone in the class this morning did it 100% correctly.
@RFSMarch I have heard of Bez - that's as far as it goes. Sorry if I've planted something distressing in your mind. So, how many mealy mouthed euphemisms for poor and exploited do we need? It is always dangerous if not wrong to look for patterns or rules in history but boy does it look like our buccaneering, new Elizabethan age heroes have proved this a truism "like Saturn, the Revolution devours its children," (Jacques Mallet du Pan) either side of "the pond"
Good morning everyone from a Jack Frost of a start in the dark and dangerous north
The wonder wheel of venison steaks with the last of the pea shoots and some green beans came in at 5.1 this am
Wonderful day yesterday - spent a good hour round the park before it got too busy. An RSPCA man was rescuing a swan that had got caught up in some netting that may have been brought down by the flood water last week. We didn’t hang around but when we did another turn past the spot, the swan was stood on one of the islands and the RSPCA man had left.
I have just vented my kimchi and the aroma has spread throughout the kitchen - smells like a good batch - I did add 6 tablespoons of gochugaru (red chilli powder) this time. Yesterday I had a go at fermenting turmeric root - will see.
Quick sketch of a bunch of skinny storks this morning - an idea for some further work. The sparse clouds have a red tinge to them as the sun comes up over the sea so hope that everyone has a good day. Koffy time.
Addendum: Happy Burns Night to those who will be hunting haggis (easier than hunting snarks) and slurping whisky.

I'll just go to the freezer rather than all that faff but each to their own Derek.I must put on my up to arm waders, cross to Annan at low tide with a 12 bore and shoot me a brace of low flying haggis, fo ma tee!
I never had any because i was going to have breakfast so just took less insulin x
I bet he has never heard of a toilet brush?I actually saw them before they really got big in my first year of uni.... iconic song!
Hahah given my moaning about Cave-dweller's habits - I have to say I prefer someone who cleans up after themselves. Remains to be seen if this other guy matches that bill and I would have said you would hope at 54 he could, but cave-dweller is in his 30s and seems incapable of wiping a surface down!
Some people have an aversion to Jelly Babies, Alf!Good Afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen and all who struggle with blood sugar levels.
A 6.1 this morning.
A strange old day here.
So you never had any jelly babies.
I like your method of dealing with low blood sugars, sometimes I use that method as well, but it doesn't always work for me when I am very active.
Take care and stay well.
I have one hanging in the garage all ready to go into the oven tonight.I must put on my up to arm waders, cross to Annan at low tide with a 12 bore and shoot me a brace of low flying haggis, fo ma tee!
I look forward to your reading Feb 8th. Mahomes is a whizz-kid and when he was with The Patriots I couldn't warm to Brady (Belichik?) but c'mon at 43 and still playing that game at the top, have to be rooting for him.Afternoon.
7.6..trust me, very, very self inflicted.
Nephew's lads have taken me under their wing and guided me through the NFL of late.

And as a final note, if they make a musical of TRUMP, this guy's got a great shot of being the finale song..well worth a listen if you haven't seen him before.

A sigh for the relief there @gennepher ..let's hope there's no more danger.
Hated it before, but one legged & on crutches..public enemy No.#1 for me
Brady and JJ - which one is GOATYeah, he's their teddy sheringham.
Great game for both last night.
Lads went all in last night, beers AND homemade cocktails. .
Not sure I'll survive SUPERBOWL if they go all out..
Thank youBeautiful!
Magnificent tree @Muddy Cyclist
Thank you. Both your pieces of art are very good. I agree the watercolour turned our very good, a different style for you distant hills and I do like it.good afternoon all
5.1 yesterday
and 4.7 today
much nicer day here today, a whole 3 degrees above freezingso we had a pleasant sunny walk around the village today lots of icy bits where the snow from yesterday had thawed and frozen overnight though.
Spent a few minutes watching the oystercatchers picking around the frozen seaweed down near the harbour, very natty little outfits they have
No post yesterday, for some reason I find it difficult to post if I'm not pleased with my fbg. I'll try to do better. (I know it's not that high , it's just high for me). On the obverse side I don't think I'm quite as cold sensitive at this level. Who knows? it's the mystery of T2D.
Hope your day is treating you well
@Krystyna23040 - good for Archie and big relief for you
@dunelm - I love your birds. your big crane is impressive and the line of birds has so many different little charactersYour group of cranes is a pleasing composition and your brush work is strong
@gennepher - I'm so glad your daughter is safe
Yesterday's picture has a lovely arching arcade of trees towards the glow of the rising light, and the fluid silvery quality of the light you have managed in today's is impressive
@Muddy Cyclist - hope you got out and back safely with mrs MC. it looks much worse where you are than in our locality
Your chestnut tree is majestic, a very fine tree study
art bit catch up -
no 1 - a quick study I did whilst we were waiting for mum to collect her pension it's of a chimney on a local bank building, perspective's a bit suspect I think

no 2 - this was me trying out the paper in a sketchbook I found to see if it was watercolour paper - aaand no it's notdon't think it turned out too badly though.
