No lifeline, but thankfully it's very sticky Shetland wool so the stitches weren't going anywhere!

No, need to pop to shop tomorrow to get a new tip, but plenty of other WIPs to get on with in the meantime!

Going into town tomorrow to buy a new one, stitches are on a spare DPN for now!

Same.

Oh that is awful.

Portrait of Miguel Anxo, former mayor of Pontevedra, standing outdoors in front of blurred greenery. A large white serif quote appears on the left side of the image reading: “It’s not my duty as mayor to make sure you have a parking spot. For me, it’s the same as if you bought a cow, or a refrigerator, and then asked me where you’re going to put them.” His name and title appear below the quote.

It is not the government’s job to provide storage space for your private property. Cars are no different.

Roads exist to move people and goods, not to store private vehicles. Governments at all levels need to start calling out and enforcing that reality.

Me: I have ADHD which affects my ability to control and maintain focus.

NHS: Great. Every 6 months you must self-administer a blood pressure and pulse check through an obscure online portal.

My partner uses one of those to darn socks and jeans, they're great.

Calling this movement ‘feminist’ is so utterly misleading.

Just watched the first two eps, really liking so far.

It's something I really miss having moved from Wales to England. I used to be able to press the button to use a cash machine in Welsh!

A screen reader can read alt-text aloud for people with sight issues. It can't read the image.

I've put mine in the attic. Not sure I'm ready to junk, but don't need them where I can see them.

The beginning of a stranded colourwork knitted vest, mostly green, with a broad ribbing then about two inches of colourwork, still on the needle.

This is a different, still in progress piece of knitting.
