Thank faaaaaark tomorrow is Friday. It’s been a very long week.

I just tuned into the cricket. Holy snapping duck poop! Might go and wash my hair instead … 🙈

““I told my dog the vet is his girlfriend now he has a huge crush on her and always happy to go see the vet””

Blue Leader found wanting. Again. Thinking we should all be proud of the decision delivered by Winnie. What a complete knob. Couldn’t lead his way out of a paper bag with the end open.

I’ve become such a Ryder Cup fan. Not so much because Europe is giving the USA an absolute drubbing, but because DeChambeau is such a sore loser. Wishing Europe the best of luck tomorrow on the final day 🏌🏽

Ardie is totally the best captain. Heart of a lion. Well done ABs 🖤

This government has no balls. Winnie up there on the world stage reinforcing it. Shameful.

Driving into work this morning and there was a vehicle blocking left hand lane of SH2 as you come past Silverstream lights. No lights but looked like driver was asleep. I hope he’s okay. Called 105 and now can’t stop thinking about the driver. Hope it wasn’t medical event 😔

Oh, I see it’s happening to many others as well 😅 Now deleting DMs without opening links.

Okay, Tweeps. Some odd DMs from some of you are appearing in my DMs. I haven’t clicked on any of the links but they look like they come from Instagram. But not sure they do. Is this happening with anyone else?

I may have just had a fan girl moment … out the back tending to my garden and Cory Jane walks past with his two dogs. He says ‘Hello’ and ‘then ‘ Hi, Jack!’. Jack now thinks he’s the most well known dog in the street … I obviously miss so many dog walkers during the week 😂

When someone gives me grapefruit … first time marmalade maker - feeling very proud of myself ☺️ #laineyskitchen

The beginning of the Sunday morning grapefruit marmalade making session 💛 #laineyskitchen
