Please don’t be awful, you’re better than that.:
I cannot stress this enough - wilful stupidity is not interesting. Stop it. Just don’t.
I can usually be found:

We rarely let Dottie off the lead as she’s not got much recall response. Today the beach at Easington was totally empty so she had some free time. She really is a beautiful creature. #BGS_HullAdventure
There’s a stretch of road on the way out of our town where there are loads of daffodils. I walked along there today and took this picture because they’re so cheerful.
I’m rather pleased with today’s work, and with the tulip colour combination.
Walking from the hotel to the restaurant. Rather nice views here, no? #BGS_HullAdventure
The husband is mixing tunes, I’m making lasagne, and we’ve opened a bottle of rosé. Happy Saturday y’all!

@NorcalGma2@sfba.social You two are a real pair of sweethearts and reading this has warmed my heart. Keep on keeping on!
Anyway, Dottie's been walked, I've done the grocery shopping, had my breakfast and will be off for a haircut in a bit. Going to run a few errands afterwards and then head to the husband's workplace to sort out the tropical aquarium. After that? We'll see what the weather brings and will either go drone flying or for a walk.
I have gone through the pantry cupboards and removed any out of date items. Getting older is a true rollercoaster ride.

@ElleGray Yup. I scrolled past this pic then came back as I was seriously puzzled at the ocean and boat configuration. Also, I now want cheesecake.

I just learned that the Gelmer Funicular/Gelmerbahn is a thing and I am both enchanted and horrified. It's like the slowest and so the most unsettling ride. There are videos of it going up and down, and going up you get to look where you came from.

I see people in my area are as stupid as I suspected. Ten years on from Brexit and nobody has learned anything.
Bravo, morons.

@NorcalGma2@sfba.social She sure is. She’s put on all the 22lbs of weight she lost when she was ill and looks chunky again. And she LOVED the beach!

@dillyd@turtleisland.social A belated welcome to the UK! I hope you have a grand time visiting and get to see all the places you have on your list.
Replying to
@dillyd@turtleisland.social Haha! Well, as long as you get to see some of them that’s a start, and you’ll just have to come back at some time to see more. I live here and have yet to see all the places I want to! 😊

@maxleibman@beige.party You're appreciated too Max; it's good to have you in my timeline, pride month or not.

@alysonsee@sunny.garden You're doing a great job with this, and I really hope today will have some down time to catch your breath. I know how all this feels and am sending supportive thoughts and vibes your way. One step at a time is how to go.

@sundogplanets@mastodon.social This has been an adventure for you and us too. Thanks for sharing!

@tc_morekindness@c.im Hey. She’s a greyhound and was a rescue. She’s had no training to return when called (recall) so isn’t good off the lead as she doesn’t come back.
Replying to
@tc_morekindness@c.im Haha! I can see why. Yeah, she was a racer and wasn’t treated well or trained at all. She’s well ahead of where she was, but not when it comes to being called back when there’s anything else to be involved with!

@czarbucks@vmst.io Isn’t it just! It really marks the start of spring here, and makes me smile each time I pass by. I love the idea of day lilies filling highway medians! What a delightful thing to enjoy in the middle of summer; sunshine and bright cheerful flowers. Perfect!

@tamami@sfba.social I don’t have a story for you - sorry - but I too enjoy those stories. There’s a podcast by Danny Robbins which has plenty of these which you might enjoy. It’s called Uncanny and has all manner of odd happening related by those who experienced them. I really like it and hope you will too.

@Mafalda@toot.wales You’re welcome. Not seen them in our area but have seen them before and they’re beautiful. Enjoy!
