Holiday home to let
seaside village
Great for walks along precarious clifftop paths
No pets. (Unless you don't mind them being eaten)
Perfect honeymoon location
Fully booked until next summer

What's that when you tumble when repairing your thatch roof, get entangled in vines and have to wait for your wife to return from the village market to cut you free?

Quaint-um entanglement

( I have a whole set of these as unlisted replies to this post. )

His personality result: , said the print-out. A word dredged from history, neither prosaic enough to send for re-education, nor eccentric enough for escalation to the ruling classes.

To government service, they sent him then. There to steep in mundanity and either fall to the colourless lows of conformity - or rise, comet-like, to the glittering highs of madness.

Either way: a decision would be made.

The plant or , is a species of flowering plant endemic to eastern .

It is a woody climber with leaves that have three to nine egg-shaped leaflets, and white or pink trumpet-shaped flowers that are red and hairy inside.

You can see how the leaves are attached (stuck) to the side wall of this residential dwelling.

It is often grown as an ornamental.

The flowers are cute and eye catching.

I haven’t seen many of these around this summer. I really liked this!

That voice recognition software is deemed pie in the sky futuristic in this film tells you how far we have come as a civilisation.

As is the use of cheque books.

Riddle 58

Though writing was my full-time job,
My stories of the dark macabre,
My merciless critique of fiction,
Poetic style and careful diction,
And rumors of my drunken madness,
Were shadowed by one song of sadness:
The one I got nine dollars for,
Which named the bird above my door.

@dangillmor It’s still a social media network “with the morning dew on it” hereabouts
It is bracing to me to consider how much we have learned about mass access to publishing platforms with no barrier to entry in the past 15 years
Remember back then, when we were all obsessing with whether or not bloggers were journalists?

Morning all, it's a dry Saturday here so I think a bike ride into the village (not a village anymore but I still call it that out of habit and to feel quaint) (and it's an ebike so not too strenuous for a Saturday)

Some photos of a little wander around Bibury, supposedly the most photographed road in Britain.
