Wrong way, Sasha! 🐶
Yesterday I visited my little buddy Leo, who has a play loft he likes to hang out in. Even though he’s an old boy now he’s nimble on the ladder. 🐈
Halfway I considered skipping ahead to see who the culprit was, but I persevered to the end. Buried Identity by Rosaleen Flanagan just wasn’t my thing. I found it unfocused, with too many characters, locations, dates, times and sub plots. Confusing, and I didn’t care enough. 📚
Oh, this is new: Kindle Rewards Beta. I buy a lot of Kindle books, most for less than $5. This could add up though.
More conscious than ever that Sasha’s time with us is dwindling I’m trying to remember to take more photos. We no longer have ‘walks’ as such, but this from this morning’s outing. 🐶
I must be learning … It’s unusually early in the season for me to realise that no, I’m not getting a cold, but instead have the start of hayfever symptoms. Sigh. Foggy head, slight headache, scratchy throat, feeling kind of blah.
So here I was waiting for my toast to pop when I read the packet on the “Canadian” Brunswick sardines that would go on the top. Turns out these were “Made in Poland”! ‘Made in’? Huh?
Three of the 4 chooks I’m looking after for a few days. They’re a bit grumpy that I haven’t let them out yet I think. 🐓
The sunset became even better. By the time I returned the chooks were all tucked up on their roosts. 🐓
I’m looking after a friend’s chooks, and I’m supposed to shut them up for the night. Unfortunately the two who were in bed got out of bed again when I arrived. Now watching the Sunset for a few minutes. That’s a really nice trade off actually.
It’s baby rabbit time of year. 🐰
Oops.
It’s likely my lack of knowledge or understanding of Indian culture coloured my response, but I found this book melodramatic and overdone. It was somewhat annoying, but I did read to the end. Kiss of Salt (Darya Nandkarni’s Misadventures Book 1). 📚
The Spinoff (news site) consistently reminds me of its excellence. Who is the new British prime minister? This month: Rishi Sunak is factual. Funny. Brilliantly written.
The highlight: a 405 word sentence under the heading “A quick recap”. Followed by a single word: “Simple.”
Heh,
“WARNING
STRANGE DOG”.
🐶
Yay, Pages 116 & following of Take Control of Ventura – Take Control Books actually explain in a way I can understand what Passkeys are and how they work. At last!
Take Control Books are the best and worth every cent! 📚
Nice to get a mention in macOS Ventura - New Features:
Autocorrect supports three new languages: English (New Zealand)…
All I can say is it’s a good thing there wasn’t any oncoming traffic. 😆 s l o w r o a d s
Very much enjoying watching S10 of Doc Martin 📺:
The villagers eventually discover his fear of blood, and the frequent and debilitating bouts of nausea and vomiting it causes. In spite of this handicap, Ellingham … gradually gains grudging respect from his neighbours.
The Man Who Died Twice: (The Thursday Murder Club 2) by Richard Osman continues the adventures of the Thursday Murder Club. Still amusing, its novelty has lost a little lustre, so all the way through I felt a little sceptical. 📚
