He is pretty fast, tbf. He ran away once - was missing for 3 weeks. I say βranβ; in reality he dug under a raised garden shed 1 metre away until he had finished a nice long nap, then came out for sunshine.
Today on Easter Sunday, I wonder why the stone was rolled away from Jesusβ tomb. If he was raised from the dead, surely he could walk through a bit of rock. And then it dawned on me that the stone was rolled away not so that He could get out, but so that we can see in. π
He is risen. Happy Easter!
I read that as βparentsβ at first, and wondered who asks their parents to make an appointment! π€£

Ah, sorry. Long thread and I didnβt go back far enough.
In which case Iβm not sure. What I do know is that it is proving hugely effective. Sorry I canβt really help. Best wishes
Hi - sorry; been asleep at the wheel over Christmas. If you are eligible you can book one through the NHS app. The pharmacy where you usually pick up asthma meds will, Iβd hope, just give you a flu vaccine on request.
Practice with small amounts. A good local roaster will help you understand what you like. Speciality coffee has a huge range of flavours and you will have a huge range of tastes and it depends on your day, your mood, and more besides.
Enjoy trying, and donβt give up. We all mess up π.
Most importantly, donβt blame yourself. Find out what works by experimenting. Grind too coarse and push through after 1-2 minutes will taste sour. Too fine, and leave too long and it will taste bitter. You canβt fix either with sugar/ sweetener.
French press is reliable. Coffee in, add water just off the boil (97-93Β°C).
Stir well for 10s. Rest for 4min. Scoop grounds of the top and bin. Just what scoops out - no need to be too meticulous.
Press slowly, then drink promptly. Any left in for much longer will taste bitter.
Freshly ground if you can (no more than 5 min for espresso, half an hour for French press)
If no grinder, keep ground coffee in the dark in the fridge (can you be certain the light goes out when you close the door? π)
60g of coffee / litre of water - and filter the water if your supply is hard
Well, having been touted as being able to help, Iβll suggest these steps:
Can you find good coffee beans nearby? Maybe a local roaster. Talk to them about what you like and dislike.
Freshly roast (no more than a month or so)
First Christmas after getting married I got something functional for the kitchen as a Christmas present for my wife.
That was what I later learned was called a learning moment! I never made that mistake again π
Nadolig Llawen I bawb. Wishing everyone a merry Christmas. Hope you are having a good day. Thanks to all those needing to work - you are appreciated.
A gull enjoying the beach β¦
Sunrise at Maroubra beach NSW - I guess the beach isnβt visible so Iβll add that next.
Six months on, Iβm indoors whilst the wind and the rain pound against our house, remembering that this short video I took in Maroubra NSW was in the middle of winter.
Diolch!
Croeso i pawb sydd wedi penderfyny fy nilyn.
Gobeithio gwneud ffrindiau newydd π
Dβwi heb bostio llawer, hyd yn hyn.
I have only engaged a little with Bluesky but Iβve suddenly started getting lots of new followers. Anyone know whatβs going on?
Lot o ddilynwyr/wragedd newydd dros y pythefnos diwetha - oes rhywun un gwybod pam?
All bets off for a rare limited. I got bored of the guy after a couple of minutes. No spindle marks? No, you wonβt find them on my vinyl either π
2-300?
Original version - maybe 50-60. There was a re-issue a few years later which would be less. Great album.
Just tried to revive a bee, offering warm sugar water. I was rewarded by being stung, which I donβt mind but that leaves the poor π worse off π’
Not helpful- know you are loved and valued. Hoping you get all the help you need.
First new song by Billy Joel in many years released this week - have a listen; I like it.
Did I just take my amplifiers to the shop for a service?
Yes. Yes, I did. π€¦

In what city would you be happy to get on a bus that is only going halfway? IYKYK
Did you paint it? Itβs beautiful.

Had a nice weekend in Edinburgh. The B&B we stay in has expanded its numbers quite a bit π
Two million on Bluesky - please post a photo of a celebratory bird.
If they wont give their food to a hungry person, you have your answer.
Welcome, Les π
