does what it says on the tin

  • Window is broken

  • No more No Ball Games

  • Lava song

    Most nights, small person wants a song. We have the Lava Song from Lava, which I think is the short which came with Moana, or Over The Rainbow by Israel “IZ” Kamakawiwo There are times when I wish we were doing something on my phone and I could record B’s reaction or what he’s doing.…

  • Strawberry Bank

    I posted this yesterday on Twitter but I’m uploading here with some context. Although it isn’t filled with as many lanes and back alleys as Glasgow or Edinburgh, there are some really old parts of Dundee like this. Strawberry Bank is a lane which passes from Perth Road to Magdalen Yard Road (Windsor Place). It…

  • Fancy

    Borrowed shirt, jacket, and bowtie off a mate as it’s the Education & Social Work Society Ball. It’s a black tie event, which is the first fail since fancy events just aren’t me. I feel stuffy but I like Ian’s…maroon (?) bowtie.

  • Trimming the hedge

    At the weekend, my neighbour came round to say he’d cut it as he has the tools and mentioned it before. I’ve posted the odd photo of it before but suffice to say the hedge needed a good trim. Keith went to it like a man possessed and I started piling the branches. This is…

  • Bookshelf

    Just spent at least 15 minutes sorting this out. By tomorrow it’ll be torn out again.

  • The Dundee Beano statues

    It is fitting that on the 65th anniversary of the Bash St Kids, I was instructed to take himself to the “dog statue”. (The HEIC version of this is funnier cos his foot is tapping) “I’m on his nose hahaha” no comment that he is hugging the one called Minx who is a trouble maker.…

  • One Day At A Time S03

    If you’ve not watched the most recent series, or even any, of One Day At A Time…GO! I really enjoyed this season, possibly more so than the first two. It felt like the writers this season really got in their groove, they had a story to tell, and really went for it. It’s streaming now…

  • Music Monday – Busted

    Yes. Not even gonna lie. I love this band. Busted came back in 2016 with the album Nigh Driver which was a departure from their original catchy radio-friendly pop-punk tingled pop of their first two albums. Well, now they’ve released their fourth studio album and I love it. Half Way There is a ten song…
