@catnip@mastodon.online avatar

Went to a board game cafe for the first time and it was a lot of fun. We played:

• Mysterium Park: Meh, wouldn’t bother playing again.

• Poetry for Neanderthals: Absolutely tears-rolling-down-face can’t-breathe hilarious. Funniest utterances “tastes like brown” and “wet cheese”. Will buy this one for the niblings.

No one uses the word "mauve" any more, do they ...

@fkamiah17 There are fashions in everything including colour names. I remember when mustard was used a lot, now it’s ochre!

My lilac is flowering! Must remember to smell it every day because the blossom is so fleeting. 💜

My fur baby has been in the animal hospital for a few days, but now he’s hoooooome! And back to his normal self 🙏

catnip,
@catnip@mastodon.online avatar

He’s home again after a second visit.

“Just take his paper leg bandage off when he gets home”

It had LOADS of tape on it, really could have done with someone to hold him.

Still, got it off with a team effort. Him biting it off and me with scissors. It’s hard being a single fur parent sometimes 😂

It’s tulip-tastic in my garden right now!

Pot with forget-me-nots, red tulips and lilac tulips.
Three red tulips and a pink double tulip. With some dandelions keeping it real.
A pot of three tall pink double tulips.

does anyone remember Morrisons' vapour sneezeguards? Appeared all of a sudden some years ago and made the veg section look all sci-fi with constant flowing vapour. Disappeared completely a month or so later.

@llamasoft_ox I’ve seen them in Spanish supermarkets.

    I know this may look bad...

    But this is how it has ended up.

    Should be an interesting couple of weeks to get in to the swing of things.

    @revk I find it second nature now. Makes sense to me to sort it immediately after use rather after it’s all mixed up together.

    I house-sat for my brother whose system was to chuck all the recycling in one bin, then separate it into the correct bins the night before collection. Insanity! After the first time of handling everything twice (the second time a lot dirtier than the first), I set up my own system!

    There’s a petition to save the Electric Cinema in Birmingham. It’s the UK’s oldest working cinema.

    ads these days are not about "look at how good I am" anymore but rather "look at how bad the other side is"

    Kinda sad and it seems very easy and lazy 🤷

    @stux Has been for a long time. It’s one of the main things that puts me off politics.

    Random musing about language and labels.

    What if we discover there are more ND folk than NT folk. Will we have to switch the labels? 🙃

    I am likely ND, but not officially diagnosed yet.

    Birmingham, where should I be to fully enjoy the local beer culture in your wonderful city? Asking for a friend, obviously.

    @tastingcraftbeer @beersofmastodon I’m not a beer drinker myself, but there are three breweries in Stirchley: Birmingham Brewery Company, Attic Brew Co, Glass house.

    Treated myself to this when I was sick last week. I can’t afford the bigger packs, but was glad to discover a smaller pack of cherry blossom, which I love 🩷 🌸 🍒

    For everyone else who struggles with grey days, this from False Knees cheered me slightly.
