On the subject of who is what, some peeps do not know that I am a "she".

Well, if you will name yourself using a masculine noun...

Also it's hard to tell from your photo.

I will send a letter suggesting we have an international standard for bread sizes.

Forget all this Covid and climate change nonsense. We need action on this important matter.

There is an EU one, however they felt the weight was more important.

I leave one finger nail long.I’ll leave it to you to guess why

The only reason I know of, learnt because one of my students had a single long finger nail, has to do with a certain white powdery substance

yes, oh dear!

Maybe @Speicher needs this as her avatar instead

Morning .
Georgie doesn't seem to be himself this morning .
He didn't come in for his breakfast so I eventually went up the garden to look for him . I found him sitting upright on a mound of grass. He seemed sleepy . He blinked at me several times to say he was alright but he seemed to be moving slowly . I picked him up to carry him indoors for some food . I had to put him down halfway on the lawn . I lay down next to him and stroked his ears. I picked him up again and carried him into the kitchen for some biscuit treats. He has gone back up the garden again .

Three mile walk to Wilko to purchase some timer thingies.. 3 for a tenner. Can't complain at that 👍

I'm sure he will raise a toast at the first banquet! 🥂

I almost cut the finger off one of my gardening gloves with my secateurs when I was tidying the garden up. It was hanging by a thread..
Luckily, my finger didn't reach the end!!

At one time the "Toffs" had 2 long fingernails for picking up and dipping asparagus without getting ones fingers soiled.

Had a lovely luncheon of two slices of wholemeal toast, one with sliced avocado, one with the last of the manchego cheese, plus a nectarine, some pineapple and two

Chutney is on the go. If you can smell chillies and ginger, that'll be me.

Well i caught him trying to claim extra discount on low discount items

Turned out not too bad today. Went out for a short trike run at 1000 when temp had risen to 14.1C.
Spring/Autumn outfit with winter jacket, bikester long trousers and full finger gloves.
I used to wear shorts from about April till October but this year I can count the number of times I have been out with shorts on the fingers of one hand.
Calmac seem to excel at being nasty. A patient transfer ambulance was told to try again next week to get a patient from Oban to Mull.
OTOH touroid have booked the boats solid months ago so there could be some excuse. There are always "no shows" which a private individual can take a chance on but not an organisation with other commitments.
The local staff and ferry crew are unfailingly helpful but their hands are tied on this one. The patient is obviously bed bound and being transferred home is not a good sign.

In the days when I maintained teleprinters, nail length was critical for picking up screws, nuts & washers I dropped on the floor.

Incidentally, it was remarkable how often said object managed to secrete itself in trouser turn ups.

Georgie has come in . He walked straight past me and has gone up to bed .

I will go up in a while and see if he wants a chin rubs .
