Not half the man he used to be.

My avatar is a selfie, lying on the grass in Glastonbury, wearing a flowery £2 charity shop blouse and some £5 sunglasses.

Hobbies: expensive designer couture, obvs. Home automation. Jigsaws. Seething. Wokeflake.

Passion: cooking. From a 65-dish Georgian (the period) Christmas dinner to a deep dive into Georgian (the country) cuisine sparked by a random mention of khmeli suneli.

Work: Project management.

I have only been to #Veeraswamy #restaurant (apparently the oldest surviving #IndianRestaurant in the #UK) twice, but because I am on the mailing list of a restaurant chain with the same owners, I got this today because their landlord wants them out:-

"Please sign a petition to King Charles III and our landlords, the Crown Estate, to renew the lease of Veeraswamy at its current premises where it has operated with distinction for 99 years."

YOUR MAJESTY, PLEASE HELP VEERASWAMY STAY WHERE IT HAS BEEN FOR 99 YEARS

The new ‘Bone Collector’ caterpillar wears the remains of its prey – and we have the footage to prove it | BBC Science Focus Magazine

A newly discovered caterpillar species, dubbed the 'Bone Collector', has a macabre fashion sense to say the least.

Bone collector caterpillar adorns itself in insect body parts
The caterpillars even tailor the body parts, nibbling away at excess material to ensure a proper fit.

I just remembered I thought that "Camden Hells AF" beer stood for Hells As Fuck, not Hells Alcohol Free.
Instead of GPS saying "rerouting" when you deviate from the path it should do the R2D2 scream.

Here's a close-up of the mac & cheese. Am definitely going to make this again but likely adding lobster. #food #cooking

whenever i see a restaurant advertising “po’ boys” i don’t think about the actual food but instead start thinking about an Edgar Allen Poe based street gang that go around in a modern street version of edwardian garb.

Po’ boy 1 *standing over a rival Coleridge based gang member*: “yo, this motherfucker’s foot-falls tinkled on our tufted floor.”

Po’ boys 2 *pulling gun and shooting* : “fuckin’ nevermore, you ancient ass mariner.”

A dog was drowning in a pond, luckily a German man walked past and pulled it from the water to try and save it. I asked the man: Are you a vet? The man replied: Am I vet? I'm bloody soaking.
