I've just looked at our new bin collection and recycling rules, coming in in June. I have absolutely no idea where, what or how often except we'll have to find room for four bins now. OK...
It may be just an old building but it's important - and close to my heart.

I still have my first email address at btinternet. And my one and only mobile number. Had both probably longer than that squirt has been alive 😂
Note to self. Eating 40-plus grams of fibre in a day probably isn't going to end well.
"Why do you want to have a 1970s music pavilion at the Shakespeare festival?"
"It features wine made by the chairman of the Chinese Communist Party!"
"But how does that make it anything to do with Shakespeare?"
"Mao is the vintner of our disco tent!"

It's like a bunch of school boys showing off. They don't see the real effect of it, it's all a game to them. Despicable specimens, all of them.
No but I think I probably should!
One of my favourite TV shows of all time. That slap. Milly and Egg. Anna being just so cool while totally dysfunctional. I've watched the whole thing many times 😎
The current crop of insults and 'green menace' headlines just means they are scared 😂
Every time I see your Bluesky handle it makes me chuckle, so thank you for cheering up a dreary timeline 😉
Operation Epic Fury? Was that named by the same people who name storms things like 'Bert'?
I'm s sick of hearing that orange swamp waffle boasting about how many people he's killed, and how amazing he is. I loathe him.
This is Bruiser. He died very suddenly. We thought he was a she until he started crowing 😂
There's someone on our Nextdoor app complaining that he can hear a cockerel at midnight. Are you going to tell him he's hallucinating, or shall I?
We had one once, he was beautiful. We built him his own sound-insulated bedroom & kept him in it until 7am because of people who don't like bird noise!

Please tell me it's not just me who has an insanely strong and very childish urge to do this in front of the TV whenever the Orange Menace is on it, wanging on about how great he is...
My very own over-positive friend, my pocket cheerleader, my ever-present reminder to get up off of the office chair. And it's driving me mad!
Shall we take a bet on the chances of it ever stopping raining in England in 2026?
Could #Ipswich have been a great seat of learning? We'll never know what might have happened if Thomas Wolsey had lived, and not fallen out with Henry VIII. open.substack.com/pub/chicksng...
Anyone who says #mounjaro is cheating, when I've just done three hours in the gym in two days, a swim, and rather a lot of walking, is asking to be walloped with a kettlebell, quite honestly... 💪 #weightloss #wegovy #ozempic
It's sleeted a bit here, and been quite horrid, but the snow-mageddon seems to have been averted!
My phone just beeped with a Met Office yellow snow warning (nobody likes yellow snow), Netweather.tv says we're in for rain, and Weather Bug is predicting thunderstorms later. Well I suppose one of them will be right.
Murder at Midnight - it’s riotously funny, well done and a good night out. open.substack.com/pub/chicksng... #TheNewWolsey #theatre #culture #Ipswich 😀
They are incredibly cute 😘
*even.
When will they introduce a post edit function? 🙄

Silkies. Utterly cute, a bit barmy and definitely worth saving from euthanasia-friendly vets. Een when it takes six months of TLC. #backyardchickens #chickens #hens

There's an 'Ipswich Window'? Who knew?
And who knows where it is?

It's an amazing win, when after eight months of #mounjaro you realise that you can finally wear the ring your late dad left you over ten years ago. He would have been so happy to see me finally manage to get healthy again. 💔🥰

I've seen some really daft #mounjaro related questions on Facebook support groups. So I wrote my own little guide to what you need to know. Enjoy! open.substack.com/pub/chicksng...
