@GoblinWriter I'm looking forward to this! It's been a couple of crazy months at work & I'm doing a short talk at a conference on the 29th. This will be my reward for not chickening out. :)

@GoblinWriter Great, I'm hoarding yoghurt and power boards. Just marvellous.

Slime in the gutter along the main street of a small rural Qld town. I won't say which one; they may not appreciate it! An early #tarmactuesday

@jemawi OMG, that's exactly where I was this morning, watching people trying to push into the lifts at the hospital!

[Queen of Sheba @langridgep]

If you're waiting for the lift, remember that people getting out of the lift have right of way. How are you going to get in the lift if it's full already!? #psa

#SickLeave crafting! Crochet lace might be tiny but it's not as heavy to carry around as a bulky project. The short rows & repetitive patterns also mean less for my muddled brain to remember.

[Queen of Sheba @langridgep]

I mean, really. There's just no words.

All that remains of my bouquet left over from the Books & Bubbles event at #WordsOutWest2025, a couple of weeks ago.

Summer is nearly over at last.

I was very brave and cast on for a sock. 😲
Never tried #knitting in the round, or double-pointed needles. I've already messed up the rib pattern but I'm pushing through. Scared of the heel but that's a problem for Future Me!

Summer colours! Pink & Red. 🩷❤️

I'm sure I've said it before, but the most time-consuming part of a crochet project is having to stop at the end of each row to admire the work.

[Queen of Sheba @langridgep]

I love this! Really, we should all be buying more flowers, more often, for more reasons!

I had to put a VR headset on this morning to fix it, and now my entire head smells like 10 year old boy. 🤢 #IJustWashedMyHairThisMorning

[Queen of Sheba @langridgep]

I need a Library Assistant whose sole job is to make sure all the gaming consoles & VR headsets are still working. Can someone get onto that for me, pls?

[Queen of Sheba @langridgep]

I was identified by a hawker today as "Lady with a scarf", which I'm not mad about.

I'm re-reading "Hunted (Flash Gold Chronicles #2)" by @GoblinWriter & just came across the word "absquatulate". Good one, Lindsay! 😂
