OK first attempt at posting a photo…

This is Clyde, one half of the local pair with Bonnie. Been visiting us for years and always bring their juvenile offspring to meet us.

I should probably inform you that this is not an owl. Nor does it appear to run on electricity, but I can’t be 100% certain of that.

When I first got my dog people would say “oh he’s your boy” and I’m like “no he’s my buddy”. Now I’m like “come here to mummy. Tell me what you want”. I even do baby talk with him which I never did with my own child. I love hearing him crunching on food yet hate it when humans do it.

Ha this is me too. Just a few weeks ago finished a big four-zone system all done in about 120m of buried 19mm pipe.

Thankfully it’s all phone-controllable, so we’ve just been able to hit ‘defer’ and not have it come on in the rain… but the defer button has been getting a workout :|

I was going to put in sprinklers etc as I’d planted a lot, but the weather has been most helpful thus far. Was worried about planting early summer due to El Niño.

You are better off buying components and setting up and building your experience in the good times, rather than when shtf and everything is sold out/expensive and people are more desperate :)

ain’t nothing like a facebook rando threatening to do very real physical violence to you because you pointed out Doctor Who has always been a bit camp.

I thought most people (myself included) were into Doctor Who because it was camp…

I think this arsehole is one of the old guard who’s all ITs SeRioUs ScIfI

yes, it is on occasion. It’s also camp. And if he’s gonna try and anorak me I’ll fucking eat his head 'cos I’m equally old school and nerdy (40+ years)…I’ve just also got social skills and a sex life.

I’m in that demographic. Tell him Amos Burden is also a bit camp.

I’ve not seen the latest lot (because fuck subscriptions), but I’ll gleefully join you and eat his liver & lights.

to be totally fair, Its gone from a bit more subtle to… drastically less so with Ncuti. I’m not complaining, but for the more oblivious viewers it might’ve been a bit of a shock.

nah, it’s just actually moved with the times. Very gen Z aimed, but it’s a TV show, what do you expect?
