Go you! Our housemate, who is a library and archive student, comes back from school all excited about catalogues and document collections. It’s so great to see the joy. I’m currently on my own quest to see an inquest report and the records office and coroner’s office have been brilliantly helpful.
Oh no! He was very kind to me on Twitter when I was working for Brighton Housing Trust.
I associate Ibiza with more colour: blue sea, red faced drunken Brits.
The kids were watching a property show on Belgian TV, where participants agree to buy something with potential sight-unseen and the experts do it up. Apparently “Ibiza style” is a thing, at least in Dutch and appears to mean …. beige everywhere?
Are they in league with the makers of paper towel dispensers?
Obviously not a ghost, but also yes.
I’ve had a first ghost at cleaning the kitchen, then taken my coffee back to bed. Mustn’t. Fall. Asleep.
Great news!
I eventually got a couple more hours but now feeling like a zombie. I have an appointment at 11 that I’m stressed about, so maybe that’s why, but I wasn’t (consciously) worrying at 4am so who knows?
Lying in the dark trying not to disturb the cat, who doesn’t give a toss.
BBC Sports Personality of the Year. LMFAO.
See also footballers on celebrity quizzes. Toby Alderweireld may be amazing on the pitch but he was a complete charisma vacuum on De Slimste Mens Ter Wereld, which is generally very funny.
Bollocks. Wide awake 3 hours earlier than planned.
Perfect
This book saved me from despair and defeat. This book made me into a novelist. I love this book so much that I translated it and got it published in English. I owe everything to this book.

Now busily counting on my fingers. I probably eat a couple of eggs a week, but not every week, but also sometimes carbonara so however many @anthonyzach.be puts into that, divided by 4.
Yup.
And then there’s chai latte coffee (or is it café latte chai??) Anyway, coffee-tea-milk. Truly the end times.
My kids are really freaked out that I can happily watch the gory stuff while eating.
I loved the Pitt, though there were difficult moments and one storyline in particular that prompted me to have an anxiety attack.
That’s about what I thought. Mind you, swimming pools are surprisingly popular here in Belgium, which has a similar climate.
Brrrrr 🥶
Ha! Maybe. He was tbf relatively calm the one time I had a full-on panic attack in the airport.
I’m team ETTA because I hate being late, hate rushing and have anxiety. I rarely fly but when I do, I’m hanging round the airport for hours, which is totally miserable, but prevents me from panicking.
Husband is team LTTA but I’m glad I didn’t filter him out.
You’re right of course, I should have.
I was just so taken aback (and wondered if I’d misheard because wtaf) that jumping up and moving seemed the best option.
Well, that’s a first: Just moved seats in the cinema because the man next to me made a homophobic comment to his companion during the trailer for “Love Me Tender”.
I think we had a couple of books like that for our kids. Seem to remember one with penguins in the title, or was it polar bears?
Is it ever warm enough in Berkshire to use an outdoor pool?
Same for peanut butter. No option for yuck, no.
I NEED HELP!
Please take this quick, meaningless 19 question survey so I can get data for my students to learn stats!
I did a similar version a few months ago but missed an important question type. Even if you did the old one, please do it again!
Please circulate widely!
Fun!
That does help a bit. Though I doubt @anthonyzach.be would be persuadable. Also, we don’t have that kind of money.
