As far as strawberry cheesecake goes, I'm pretty impressed by my efforts. Candles and singing later, I just made sure it survived the trip out of the tin.

Rehearsal at my place was awesome!!!
Was nice having people over which doesn't happen a lot because of where I live.
Awesome night!
We got new disco lights. It's hard to take a pic cos it's going fast. They are wicked.
Seemed to go ok! I’ve made it to the next round!!!!
Which is case study (nice way of saying roleplay) with 2 senior staff acting like clients.
Odd but will be interesting.
Alrighty.
On my way now. Will be almost an hour early but that’s my standard MO. Can sit around and have a coffee and mess around on my iPad before hand.
Fingers crossed!
Just went outside on this glorious day for a break - and met a bloke walking his new golden retriever puppy. 16 weeks old and all paws and ears and goodwill to all mankind. Made my day.
Your day is made, it can't get any better!
Good job Mr Byte, you've been doing great with the posting lately. Keep this up and your next performance review will be very positive.
“Attendance - Above average” ✅
Mickey has been way more cuddly and needy than usual, somehow. I think he knows something is happening soon (out trip and his stay in the cattery).
I don't want to leave my big baby 😭😭
Half the band are coming over to practice because the drummer hurt his hand. Be nice to have people over!
And of course,
Cheers🍻
I took a photo of a green sea anemone in a rock pool , it was about 10 cm big. Pretty sure the anemones in this pool are normally a light gold colour, I think it was green from eating all the chlorophyl from the sea lettuce washed up in the storm.
I'm not sure this post reproduces how beautifully translucent green this creature was.
Wow I have to give this beach a visit one day. The biodiversity is great. Maybe I just never paid enough attention to it at other beaches.
Rank the following types of potato preparation methods and give a justification for full marks:
- shoestring fries
- wedges
- mashed potato
- roasted potato
- boiled potato 🫣
- scallop potato 🫣
- potato gratin
- potato chips (crisps)
Oh and you forgot baked and croquettes and...
I have this one from across the ditch
There maybe more.
Impossible. I'd give a different answer depending on my hunger level, hormones, companion, or it just being a Tuesday.
S'cuse me teacher, I do not understand your question. Can you please explain your question in more detail regarding ranking?
Get to work early, a bit of work, long training session, bit of work, Balatro toilet time, lunch, more training.
Then a bit of work, finish early, father's day time at the childcare centre. A nice write-off of a day productivity-wise.
@Duenan - toes are all the rage right now come back
spoiler
that's giving me motion sickness ....lol
I put it in a spoiler for you 👍
Feels like -3.2^o^ outside. I am informed all cars in the carpark are covered in ice. Which means I have to sit in my car defrosting for a while before I can go home 😭
It appears I have upset / made a lot of people hungry with my potato ranking question.
I am upset at the question because I have run out of potatoes. Reminding me of this terrible turn of events is cruel and unusual punishment.
they will be back after second dinner
Attempting to make possum cages for my plants out of chook wire. They look shit and I look like I've been dragged through a blackberry farm
There’s an Imgur blackout protesting the banning of nsfw and also they were removing political content?
Also they’re going to be purging old unused content not associated with an account so please go grab anything you’d miss if it hasn’t already happened. (It began at least a week ago maybe.)
There are some old pics of Melbcat on there that will go… I do have the originals and don’t remember where I wrote the links to the post but it’s still sad to think about.
I refused to make an account because they were demanding a phone number. I guess if I ever do Drawabox I have to find an alternative for that reason alone…
