Mundane News

in other news, 1,000 Americans are dying from covid every day & lunatic morons are fighting over whether or not their kid can go mask-less at school. hello, the virus is worse this year & the kids still can't get vaccinated. entire colleges are in quarantine & these nut jobs want their "freedom". I say start a school w/ all the anti-maskers & anti-vaxxers; teachers, parents & students & let them do what they want, waaaaaay over there, away from me & my family

Cat and decorator could be a dodgy combination....

That unfortunately happened to some of the more interesting buildings in Leicester.

And Luton. They even pulled down the old library building which was a present for 'the people of Luton' from a certain Mr Carnegie. Apparently the council thought THEY were the people of Luton. The peasants never had a say in it.

They even made a film about their lovely 'modernisation' (it's on Youtube). Most of those buildings have been pulled down since.

Whenever I decorate at least one of the moggies (but often 2 or 3) end up with paint somewhere on them, Kizzy is the worst but then she loves 'helping' me whatever I do.

Spicy chicken & black bean enchiladas for supper. The world is a good place right now.

A Selkirk Rex would be better for this, as they have curly, lambswool type fur...

We had an Olympic sized open air swimming pool which they just filled in . It had a grass hill next to it on which people could sun bathe. I'm not a swimmer but I can appreciate the community spirit of people gathering there on sunny days in the summer relaxing , swimming or just sunbathing on the slope . They replaced the swimming pool with a large building with sports halls and a small indoor swimming pool .
The other thing I couldn't understand is that they put the swimming pool upstairs! The structure to support hundreds of tons of water must be huge and put the costs up .
