My solar light animal collection sitting on our bar table is freaking me out. Is putting them away for the winter cruel?

@tomcat I'll speak for me. I always do. So ... I started off on mastodon.world because that's how it is on Blue Bird. But very quickly I found that the people I really wanted to get to know were mostly UK based. Only because there was more commonality than with others around the world. I'm slowly coaxing non UK friends to give Mastodon a go.

So I applied for an invite to Mastodon app.uk and am still waiting. No stress here as I've not got an agenda. I'll wait and see what happens.

I'm here because I was treated unkindly on Twitter and Facebook.

Loving life and all it throws at us.

The sun glints through the trees as Dougal and Lenny look back towards me down the leaf strewn path.

We are so lucky to have this woodland directly behind our house. This village is what we left London for.

Why, when replying to a toot, does the message default to a lower case letter? Am I mad?
@alyssa FFS Meltdown?

@QuiteFunnyGuy Here is my attempt at a complete list of things you should not do while making Pumpkin Soup:

Edit a document
Call a friend or enemy
Listen to the Today Programme on Radio 4
Poo
Throw darts at a picture of Liz Truss
Google "Why has America gone mad?"
Try and explain economics to a brexiteer
Play God Save The King on left over pumpkins.
Have sex alone or with someone
Dress up as a dinosaur and roam the local woodlands
Explain a dad joke to my dad

What have I missed?

@giagia what an interesting and lovely introduction. I am looking forward to hearing more for you as time passes.

@msocsci I use it all the time to communicate with my friends in Germany, France and Italy. It's very good in German and friends in Italy seem happy with it. . Just wish that Google added an English to American so I can understand what the **CK was going in over there..... 😂

Also .. surprised that the Apple keyboard does not have similar feature. I've always been an android guy so take these kind of things as granted...

@cranky_tracy What a lovely picture. Made me Thank you. ❤️.
