I'm watching Australian urban exploration videos tonight and none of them seem adequately concerned about deadly wildlife when poking about abandoned buildings and theme parks and the like.
Ashley Madison story on NetflixDoes anyone have good recommendations for a TV series or film to stream? I'm bored.
Not a fan of violence or gore.
Got any interesting humanist stories to suggest?
Hotescat appears at the rustle of a packet!I don’t understand those videos you see on social media of people waking up their sleeping cats by waving a prawn in front of them. I only have nudge a cat treat of any sort and hear the THUD of boy cat jumping off the bed.
If either of us goes within a five mile radius of the cat food cupboard, we find ourselves being tripped up by one or both of the teapot cats.I don’t understand those videos you see on social media of people waking up their sleeping cats by waving a prawn in front of them.

I grew up next to a creek, we were always down there catching yabbies and lizards. It's pretty rare in most suburban areas to see a snake in the wild. Except for the family next door who found a Brown Snek (super deadly despite the boring name) curled up on their back step.I'm watching Australian urban exploration videos tonight and none of them seem adequately concerned about deadly wildlife when poking about abandoned buildings and theme parks and the like.

I love watching those. They’re so gentle and wholesome.Most of Michael Palin's back catalogue is on BBC iPlayer and we've recently been working our way through them in order.
It's quite interesting seeing him travel 30 odd years ago, it's silly but it really emphasises how completely different the world is. Pole to Pole is particularly interesting because he goes through late stage Soviet Union (and then only a few days after leaving, the August coup happened).
I can’t find the danish one to watch. It was the American version, and I liked it a lot. No idea what I put on last night, I fell into the Kate and William thread out of boredom.I loved The Killing. (The Danish one.)
Love a police procedural. Have binge-watched Rebus and Blue Lights recently which I rate highly. Also The Gathering was really good. All BBC.
Will check out Deadloch, thanks.
Not laughing at your pain, tenderhead. I'm laughing because nobody does stink face like a cat.View attachment 2959726
I’m in quite a lot of pain again today and worrying about dry sockets.
I think girl cat is trying to make me feel better but this face is pure Mean Girl![]()
Regularly find myself in awe at his ability to connect with strangers (and also harness the power of physical comedy to bridge language barriers)I love watching those. They’re so gentle and wholesome.
If you eat cheese, mixing leftover veg and mash with huge amounts of cheese and baking is my number one comfort food.Hello Fraus,
I’m very hungover today. It’s 1:15pm in the UK, we’re still in bed. I’ve got a glass of San Pelegrino limonata for some energy and all I can think of is stodgy food. I want something like pie and mash but I don’t have any and SHANT be going outside today so will have to find something else to satisfy me. Maybe I’ll make some fried rice.
what’s your perfect veggie comfort food?
That sounds amazing 🩷🤌mixing leftover veg and mash with huge amounts of cheese and baking is my number one comfort food.
You could add a beaten egg or two into your mash and veg before baking too. Makes it souffle-ish.If you eat cheese, mixing leftover veg and mash with huge amounts of cheese and baking is my number one comfort food.
But…Risotto would be nice as you have rice.
Strata, using a very basic ancient recipe (actually on paper torn from The Guardian inthe 1980s, Richard Ehrlich's column) - basically just bread pudding with cheese and onion, eggs and milk.Hello Fraus,
