Not conducive to my good mental health are things like spotting a superfluous space between words after posting! *does an eye twitch*
Devon Dympsy@devondympsy.bsky.social · 18h agoI'm headed across the Shire later on... Get to spend time with the little fam people today, and then tomorrow is a group gathering of all the fam people. These are definitely things that are conducive to good mental health for me! ❤️ #WorldMentalHealthDay

I'm definitely gonna treat myself to a bottle of this for the festive season... I mean, who wouldn't like a "gooseberry led" beveragino! 🙂 (the little vid is cute too) www.sipello.com
Absolutely love this image! 😍 So many great details, plus I have always been enamoured of the H&W cranes.

Is Bluesky being an arse again? New posts do seem to be coming through now, but if any of you said anything interesting/amusing/philosophical/stupid* earlier on, then I can't see that. *we all know which of those it will have been.
Another in the occasional series "Halloween is stupid but..." #27
At the time it was made I was completely unaware of this series that I recently discovered was on YouTube. It's from the Covid era and it's called "Housebound" It features little clips of actors pretending to be various characters/types that I am sure we all recognise from that time. 1/2

More pretty tins that I'll no doubt wash out and keep, whilst telling myself I will use them for something or other...I won't tho'! 😁
Impossible to say which one for sure, but it would have come from this list: Roman Holiday High Society A Star Is Born The Shop Around The Corner On The Town It's A Wonderful Life Kiss Me Kate Meet Me In St Louis Easter Parade Brief Encounter

Managed to find a photo of the original Auntie Badger... Any similarities to me are purely coincidental. Tho, I would draw your attention to the fact that her outfit and accessories are all colour coordinated! 😁 (FYI - the one in blue is Granny Diz (they were sisters)) #BadgerDay

I seem to have developed a liking for Scottish comedies. After being nagged for ages, I watched and throughly enjoyed "Still Game" Then I was also very late to the party with "Two Doors Down" And I've recently finished "Dinosaur" which was excellent. So, any others I should know about/seek out?
Sometimes a sight, sound or smell hits you with a memory so forcefully that you can almost feel it physically... That just happened to me when I saw this album cover. Music, eh!
WHAT A FUCKING RECORD@whatafuckingrecord.bsky.social · 6d ago45
You know how sometimes a cinema or a TV channel will show a load of horror films and call it "Fright Night"? Well, I'd like to see a collection of films about people who suffer with sleep issues and they can call it "Shite Night"!!

You can't go to Instow without going to Johns Deli. And you can't go to John's Deli without buying a Scotch Egg. And you can't have a Scotch Egg without having some overpriced Celeriac Remoulade to go with it! 😋😁
