You have to wash your hands in the bathtub after going to the toilet because your sink is full of drinking cats.
Tard the grumpy cat
This one is full of win on so many levels :-)
My council tax dollars at work
We haven’t had bin pickups since before Christmas because our pickup days fell on the holidays. Last Wednesday, they picked up our green bin but didn’t touch the pile of excess recycling in carrier bags next to it. I put all the bags in the bin and phoned the council to complain. They told me that they had a second crew that was exclusively picking up the extra stuff but i had to leave it next to the bin or they’d miss it. Out I went to empty my green bin. That night, when no crew had come, I put everything back into the bin. The next morning, I phoned the council again to complain and they told me that the second crew actually didn’t come yesterday but was coming today, so I had to put the extra bags next to the bin again. I told the council lady that those bags had done more mileage than a small car, so zhe said that she’d log it as a missed pickup and a bin lorry would come in the next couple of days.
This morning, a bin lorry came and picked up not only our green bin, but also our black bin. Since there are no bin lorries with the capacity to collect both waste and recycling, this means that all the recycling we’ve been moaning about is now going to the tip.
Idiots.

The pork has been pulled
From a 6.5 pound pork shoilder that slow cooked for 7 hours, only dregs remain. The bbq sauce was a bit of improv work, but it turned out very nice.
Could this be it?
Could this be the inspiration for my next tattoo? I think it might be :)

A proper Christmas dinner for the child.
This afternoon, Bean’s dinner consisted of raw Brussels sprouts, chocolate rolls, custard, a banana, a roast potato and a packet of crisps. I love my bean.
Daddy! Daddy! I found your snake?
Hehe, Henry the snake is still around. That thing is older than the Bean.
