Ah that's good then. Are you off to see Jasmine? That will wake you up. =)

I'm at work this morning then going for a walk this evening with my friend.

Cat seems better today, putting a tiny bit of weight on his foot and has cleaned his own wounds up nicely so no emergency vet trip for us today.

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 10:07 AM

I am indeed!
Just waiting for my brother to message with a time

Hope work is ok! And the walk sounds nice

Aww that's good. Hopefully he'll be on the mend now

tamobhuuta 18-10-2020 11:22 AM

I'm glad your kitty is getting better np.

I hope you have fun Cacoethes.

nonperson 18-10-2020 11:26 AM

Have fun Beckie.

Work is fine, just a little bit more to do. I'm not fully looking forward to the walk, I think the conversation is going to be a bit intense and serious. =/

Hey Tamo. How're you today?

one_step_closer 18-10-2020 11:29 AM

*sends love to all*

tamobhuuta 18-10-2020 12:01 PM

Tired. Thinking of having a pj day. Or a shower.

tamobhuuta 18-10-2020 12:29 PM

I am dressed! Now for a little pray.

nonperson 18-10-2020 01:12 PM

Sending love to you too, Lindsay. <3

Well done for getting dressed, Tamo.

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 01:23 PM

My mum got me a cuddly rabbit for my birthday! But not just any cuddly rabbit! It's identical to the one I lost in 1995 that I took backwards and forwards to my dad's. He got lost in transit back then.
And he's exactly the same one and they stopped making them in 2005!

nonperson 18-10-2020 01:29 PM

How did she manage to find one? =o

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 02:03 PM

I don't know!

yoyogirl 18-10-2020 02:12 PM

stuck down an awful rabbit hole trying to get myself motivated to look at assignments finding it really difficult at the moment. i need some ideas to get me flowing again

nonperson 18-10-2020 02:22 PM

A study planner, yoyo?

Don't lose this one, Beckie. =P

tamobhuuta 18-10-2020 02:48 PM

Aw that's adorable Cacoethes.

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 03:06 PM

I asked, she got it from ebay!

I know tamo, I was so touched!

nonperson 18-10-2020 03:24 PM

I found an old children's toy of mine on ebay too. They seriously sell everything.

not_so_insig 18-10-2020 03:29 PM

I had an bear when I was small and I thought that I had lost him in an house move. I bought one on ebay which was tricky because it was discontinued in 1982 and most of them was for sale in America. Which meant that I would have had to pay ransom tax. Anyway I eventually found one for sale in the UK and so I bought it. I had him for about 18 months when one day my mum commented that there was an identical bear on my brothers bed in my parents house. Turns out that he found my original bear in my parents attic (do bear in mind that my parents attic is bigger than my living room and bedroom combined). So now my replacement bear lives in my flat and my original bear lives in my bedroom in my parents house where he has always belonged.

not_so_insig 18-10-2020 03:35 PM

Nonperson I think that the only thing that you cant buy on ebay is alcohol and live pets (except for fish which are allowed on ebay).

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 03:39 PM

Ebay is great!

nonperson 18-10-2020 03:40 PM

And illegal drugs.

not_so_insig 18-10-2020 03:41 PM

I had an ebay parcel come yesterday.

nonperson 18-10-2020 03:43 PM

I'm waiting for one.

not_so_insig 18-10-2020 03:47 PM

Hope it's more interesting than mine nonperson. Mine was cooker knobs after the last one got accidentally broken by my mum.

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 03:52 PM

You can probably get illegal drugs off there if you know what to search for :p
(Not that I do, just saying!)

nonperson 18-10-2020 04:15 PM

Haha yeah probably! In which case alcohol and pets will be on there too.

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 04:19 PM

Yep! The Internet is both a blessing and a curse :p

not_so_insig 18-10-2020 04:21 PM

I ordered gin off amazon once. Came the next day because it was prime eligible.

nonperson 18-10-2020 04:57 PM

Good to know it can bought there in case of emergency.

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 05:09 PM

Yeah you can get alcohol off amazon

We're having a family N64 mario kart tournament!

nonperson 18-10-2020 06:11 PM

Who's winning? =P

nonperson 18-10-2020 06:15 PM

Maybe more importantly - Bill Bailey is doing Strictly this year. Amazing. XD

tamobhuuta 18-10-2020 06:44 PM

Bill Bailey rocks

nonperson 18-10-2020 06:46 PM

He absolutely does. =D

not_so_insig 18-10-2020 06:57 PM

I have washed and dried my hair, been to the shop via the park so far today. I am now the proud owner of a bottle of wine, a bottle of lemonade and a pasty. Only went for a bottle of wine.

not_so_insig 18-10-2020 07:02 PM

Some idiot is letting off fireworks. Grrr.

nonperson 18-10-2020 07:06 PM

Screw the wine, the pasty is the real prize there.

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 07:18 PM

I love Bill Bailey!
But hate strictly! What a dilemma!

nonperson 18-10-2020 07:27 PM

He's making me laugh so far. =P But he's got quite a scary intense dance face!

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 07:29 PM

I can imagine!

nonperson 18-10-2020 07:33 PM

He's also quite light on his feet!

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 07:37 PM

Does sound quite interesting!

nonperson 18-10-2020 07:39 PM

Probably worth a watch just for laughs. =P

My walk is cancelled. =/

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 07:50 PM

Strictly gives me the rage so I can't watch it!

Oh no! How come?

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 08:09 PM

Ooo the Greatest Showman is on!

nonperson 18-10-2020 08:13 PM

My friend's not well tonight so we've rearranged for tomorrow.

Never seen the Greatest Showman. Not sure if it's for me.

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 08:15 PM

Aw that's a shame.

It's a good film if you like this sort of thing!

nonperson 18-10-2020 08:16 PM

I'm not sure I do. =P But never having seen it, I'm not sure how I can make that judgement! I guess I don't tend to watch things like that generally.

Are you home now?

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 08:19 PM

Fair enough! We are all different!

Yes I am.
After a very long detour because one single road in the middle of nowhere was closed!

nonperson 18-10-2020 08:24 PM

I'm watching the Vicar of Dibley now. =)

Argh that's a ballache. Was it a good day despite that?

Cacoethes 18-10-2020 08:27 PM

Awesome choice!

Yes it was thanks :)
Lots of pizza and cake and dogs and chatting and laughing! And mario kart of course!
