The children, with all the telly to choose from, were engrossed in penguins and one in particular who escaped a lion seal.
It was amazing though

Seeing a ragdoll in the "wild"

The nightly murders have begun. The cat and the puppy spend a good 30 minutes every evening absolutely killing each other! It is highly entertaining because they practically rugby tackle one another around the room! Then they get hurt and go off to sulk for a little while. Silly little things! But they're so cute!

Yup, absolute beauty of a kitty but at the same time, I can't believe the owner would leave a ragdoll out and about.

Not having to commute to work the last few weeks has been a very pleasant side effect of this terrible virus.

Saving a small fortune on diesel too.

Just in from the back garden, where I was smoking a pipe and having a beer under the stars.

Penguins are class.

You've reminded me of an old th.

The man who knits penguin jumpers. Just realised he passed away nice story, though. At that time, he was Australia's oldest man.

I'd wear some of them myself.

I wouldn't be letting them out of my sight and put up a fence so they could go out to the garden

Planning a day in the garden. The sound of nature going about its business in place of the normal racket of cars and vans on the road. I never thought such a thing would put a smile on my face, but it does.

My mother's homemade bread

My computer headset broke last week - I should have known better than to use it all the time even when I didn't need the mic. I checked with Mme Storkeuse and the Storkettes and as it happened we were all "headphonically embarrassed". As a kind of cheer-up-the-lockdown thing I ordered new headphones for everyone and a headset for me and they all arrived today. Smiling faces all round. Again, it's the little things.

(How our youngest gets the leads as badly tangled as she does is a mystery to me...)

I'm feeling trivially happy after another day of volunteering locally. It's very different from my regular job but very rewarding. Hard not to smile when one of the clients called me their "guardian angel" as I was leaving this evening. I'm already looking forward to going back in again tomorrow.

Having a sly 3 in 1 from the chinese.Its the little things.

I just planted a red gooseberry plant that I bought recently. I don't like gooseberries but we used to have one in the back garden when I was a child, so I planted this in the front garden (at the front) so people can help themselves (since I won't be eating them). And it's sort of in memory of my father who died last year.

Even digging the hole to plant it felt good.

And this was all I could think of...

Ever eaten gooseberry jam, BDB?
I think thats a lovely thing you did, and letting people have some fruit is nice.

TH the photos of roundabouts and grass verges being left grow a bit wilder and sown with wildflowers.

That's such a lovely thing to do, Badly Drunk Boy!


I'm happy because after an insane working week I have nothing to do for the weekend except work through a couple of new books and spend a bit of tiem with the madra.

I don't like jam in general so I probably won't make the jam. But others are welcome to...

I just turned on Nationwide on RTÉ1+1 and there was footage of an American female astronaut (Cady Coleman) playing the flute and tin whistle in space, that she got from The Chieftains. Since then, she had done a few guest performances with the band.

New Home

I had my glasses on top of my head, they fell off and landed on the tiles, but the lenses didn't break. They're glass, too.
