Dear @LittleBrownUK Your paperback copy of Instructions in Gardening for Ladies that I just bought off Amazon is only the first 6 chapters (of 12). Is this a deliberate con job?

If I say Khaby Lahme is Swifty Frisko, and you get one of the references, please let me know. If you get both of them, AND you agree with me, we should totally do a marriage.

Desert Island Discs - @KemiBadenoch on @BBCRadio4 says her dad bought her a ZX81 when she was 7. Poor thing. Two years after the Apple Macintosh (the year after Aldus Pagemaker) and in the year of the Intel 80386 and the Acorn, after her dad bought her a 6 year old 1kB machine

No grand adventures this week. Just laundry, reading, and planning some British Christmas food traditions and a Christmas nook Peak December contentment.

December at the Barracks Me: tidying, sawing wood, dreaming of British Christmas desserts Weather: murky grey soup (with occasional blue-sky grace) Pigs: sleeping & eating (as usual) Good enough.
