Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Hi folks. I hope all is well. I'm going to have a look at some of the series recommended by you. I need something to watch - the only thing I'm invested in at the moment is Bake Off!
Had the most frustrating day at work. I worked really hard (honest) and have nothing to show for it. This was entirely due to one of the documents I opened having over 3400 pages! I am still reading it. It is a transcript of 36000 messages sent between two people. Not what you need on a Monday 🤣.
Apart from that no news - it's gone very cold tonight. Winter is coming.


Try the Farscape TV series out of Australia, I believe it's on Netflix or maybe I'm confusing with Amazon Prime's offerings. At first you're gonna' be like 🤨 but you'll slowly come to enjoy it's quirky Henson-like funkiness. Just think sci-fi Dark Crystal but with an adult slant, if you've ever seen that.
 
Good morning all on this black morning here .I hope all are well and have a fine day . All my small projects are done ,repairing a CD player ,service bits on the car etc so now I am making some flower shapes out of hot glue to decorate some outside lanterns as I am hoping they will be see throughish ,I was able to find the glue in seven colours if you count the clear one .A total experiment so we shall see . Have a great day all .COYB.

That sounds awesome. Thanks
 

Cal loved the TV series but didn't like the book. She was a fully signed up member of the Phillipa Gregory fan club and I think she thought Hilary Mantel was trying ti muscle in. And once you got on her badside...... 😀
I love Phillipa Gregory too, I’ve just finished reading her latest book Normal Women. I got it last Christmas but have only just been able to read it due to a certain High Street optician messing up my glasses. It’s a history of women over the last 900 years, fascinating but at times enough to make your blood boil.
 
Evening everyone, well I’ve just watched the first 3 episodes of series 1 Wolf Hall and quite enjoyed it - found it a bit slow but that wasn’t a bad thing as I could do my knitting at the same time - don’t know how I keep up with this rock and roll lifestyle
Yes it is a bit of a slow burn. It helps that I know the history as I think I would quite literally lose the plot.🤣
 

Morning all, foggy and grey today, that’s me and the weather. Not envious of Mrs J at all @jazzy .😆
Off to see my friend this morning for our weekly coffee and chinwag after the grandkids have been herded off to school, you’re not the only one with a rock and roll lifestyle @Val P!
Have a good day, all💙
Funnily enough G that , almost word for word , was my reply when she WhatsApped that to me!

Morning everyone.

Looks quite bright out although fog is forecast here too.

Pretty easy game of ping pong last night so a tougher gym session this morning that the warm down that I had envisaged.

Then a lot of leaf collecting - I do hate autumn.

Forgot to tell you all , Paddy didn't just cycle past our house 2 days ago but stopped at the village hall. Great turnout and he was lovely with the kids that turned up.

Anyway have a lovely day everyone.
 
Good morning. I had to de-ice my car this morning. The temperature said -2. Dropped Mr F off at work at 7am and then went swimming. This is my second visit. As last time, it was full of middle aged men who spent a lot of time on the sauna and steam room. I am now wondering if it is a gay dating meet up place! I shall continue to observe. 🤣
I'm having an ongoing row with Tui about our holiday compensation. After waiting patiently for two months because my previous two phone calls told me that they had 56 days to look into it, I phoned them yesterday. This time they told me they had no record of me and Mr F being on the delayed flight. This is in spite of them having our holiday booking reference and the flight numbers. My polite enquiry of how do you think we got home - walked, was met with, there's no need to be like that. Anyway I've had to resubmit my claim.
Love the Scottish, Irish and Portuguese photos.
No plans today. I've just watched last night's Bake Off.
