Bookseller, loves food, theatre, music and above all books. Slightly odd sense of humour, find my own jokes hilariously funny. All views my own.

New pastries in the cafe including pain au chocolat and pain aux raisins! Naturally, I taste tested them & have asked the cafe team not to sell them to me or they won’t be any for you 🤣

Spent the afternoon listening to episodes 50-55 of @LesWhoWrite whilst finishing my Lego build @ClareLydon @IHeartLesfic Funny listening to them talking about the start of the pandemic. I need a holiday to catch up with the rest of the series.

F/nb protagonists find love whilst competing in a reality cookery show. Made me laugh from the first page & rotting for them until the last. Loved it #netgalley #cookingcompetitions @daffodilly @headlinepg #love&otherdisasters #lovecows

Also go a couple of new hens. No names yet, just letting them settle in a bit first. They are very chatty!

@Se_Railway I appreciate your reply & the link for a formal complaint. Such an occurrence is rare on this line & I have had a long day & was looking forward to getting home as I was in time for the train, even having been held up on the DLR, so was annoyed it had gone already.

Grrr, really irritating 18.34 train to Bexleyheath left platform 4 @ 18.32, thanks for that @Se_Railway . Totally get the whole closing of doors 30 early, but leaving before the actual departure time is rubbish

Hello new friends! We are so excited for shops to open on 12th April... this will be me leaving my local... 📚

[Abigail Preston @liagibap1966]

Why announce that a train is delayed 4 minutes passed its leave time when all the other trains one could have got have also left? Poor announcement at Charing Cross station @Se_Railway
