    Yesterday a car drove up and back down my court and stopped outside my front gate, would the window down and took a photo (from what I could see). He then realised I was there and left. Not feeling overly safe, didn’t get numberplate so calling cops would be useless?

    Dead end road in the sticks……

        I get that but the fact that they took off when they saw me - that’s dodgy af. Fortunately my big dog was barking from the house, hopefully a deterrent if it’s casing for a break in.

      Not good. Do you have cctv? Might still be worth reporting. The photo (?) sounds like might be casing the joint for robbery of tools/generator/copper piping etc. Which is a thing that’s increasing.

        Got them on my camera but just didn’t get the plate (they were trying to stay out of range methinks). Will realign a camera.

          The neighbours might’ve caught them. You could do a letter drop in the court saying someone was taking photos from their car on DATE and TIME.

      To be charming I think you need to learn the art of the schmooze. Basically telling people what they want to hear.

      Charm comes from being your authentic self. Sounds cliche but that whole “you could be the best, most delicious apple, but there will still be people who don’t like apples” saying.

      Be you, the whole of you. And you will attract and charm those who you like as well.

    god I want that KFC snack pack for lunch, but 6 nugs PLUS popcorn chicken and chips is way too much to tackle solo.

    TV review. Secrets of the Neanderthals on Netflix.

    A lovely documentary with good dramatic depictions of Neanderthals and Neanderthal life and the scientists who work to reveal their heritage. 3 hobbits

    If anyone is interested I can recommend the book Kindred by Rebecca Wragg Sykes on Neanderthals. Best book I read last year, it used science to bring Neanderthal people to life. The stories were very moving. https://www.rebeccawraggsykes.com/kindred

    I need to replace some elastic waistbands but I put all that away on a high shelf and stuff on top of it -_-

    Edit: I grabbed it down, and I had already done the worst of it for one pair of pants. (The elastic was folded over with the top of the pants and both sewn in together, probably for speed in a factory, meaning I had to unpick the entire waistband the whole way around. I had then handsewed it into a lazy but serviceable casing so the next time I need to replace or adjust the elastic I can undo a few stitches and just pull the old elastic out.)

    The new elastic is in that pair now but I haven’t sewn the hole up yet. I’m going to wear it around for a little while to be sure it’s a comfortable tightness and then close it.

    Time to start unpicking the next pair.

    I saw a kitty litter box with enter and exit doors and I wondered if kitty would care if it accidentally Dutch ovened it self.
