I heard some of those NI rioters being interviewed the last time this sort of thing kicked off, and they were going "There's too many immigrants! But the Polish family next door are ok, decent people, and the Khans across the road too..." The people they were talking about had to board up their windows and barricade the door. How can you keep both those ideas in your head?

I had a lady in Cairo working my breasts like she was taking the lids off jars. Hornk hornk hornk. All behind a curtain so my modesty was protected.

I visited the cockpit once on an international flight. JAL Tokyo-London. Just asked if I could, and sure of course.

No, I'm a beekeeper, and did a course in microscopy earlier this year. I make slides of pollen and bits of bee. I have another microscope for dissecting bees. It is beyond thrilling to have my own wee lab, with bottles of chemicals and petrie dishes and dissecting tools.

The first one was wild for me. I knew it was happening, but it happened that it happened at the very moment I was on holiday in Welsh Wales, busy navigating my way around a small town. My phone is bluetoothed to my hearing aids, so very abruptly I had a voice shouting inside my head in Welsh. The message was repeated in English, but by that time I'd died of my heart attack, lol.

I bought a new fridge freezer recently. It was tricky because of limited width, but I'm happy with the Bosch I chose (it was on special). Freezer's at the bottom, with drawers, which I've grown to appreciate. I was also dubious about the bigger veggie drawer, but actually it's great.

I use a usb mug warmer to heat microscope slides.

It's Scotland, you cannot take their freedom.

 

Thrilled to have found a Lemmy knitting group! I'm a sock obsessive, I just love knitting socks, so I've ended up with an staggering amount of "scrap" yarn. The solution - blankets. This is my second Cosiest Memories project and this time I have a Plan. The first one was truly random, with lots of placement errors. When it was finished I did a dark icord edge, and suddenly it was smart!

So for the second one I'm adding an inner border of that same colour and (eventually) will finish with icord. I might even knit some more socks!

 

I'm a Reddit refugee and in all the years I was there I never made a single post. I'm very much enjoying the Fediverse, especially Lemmy, and thought I'd share my happy place with you all.
