I am left-handed and teetotal. But partial to the odd doughnut.

I'm right-handed & teetotal and like a doughnut, too. 👍

One for @tyred - a character in the chapter I'm currently working on (not a major character, but background and recurring) is Irish, and I want to add a little "flavour" to his dialogue. My question is, what's the correct colloquialism for a young woman? He is referring to my main character, who in this particular segment of the story, is in her early 20s.

Reynard. It's "Colleen".

It's Black Bin Day today.

It's Black Bin Day today.

Seems to be blue bins here!
Have to look it up and see if that means it's also brown bin today.
Odd that the green bin is really not at all green.

Then there are the fox feeder bibs.
