@joynessthebrave I just read your Saturday missive, and I have pumpkin puree advice. Ocado online grocery store nearly always has it. I just bought 2 tins this evening. It's worth doing the odd big shop with them to get it through the autumn.
I will go to my grave screaming about how there are literally zero Muppet movies where the cast is made up of entirely Muppets, except for one human.
I beg for the sweet relief of death so I can stop yelling at people about this.
Shout out to our dungeon masters; shapers of the cosmos 🙌 …and to all the stout fighters, mighty magic-users, wily thieves and courageous clerics who made their mark in the magical world of Dungeons & Dragons this afternoon at Halton Lea Library🐉🎲

Coming soon! Join us for our new Dungeons and Dragons sessions at Widnes Library, every Thursday from 5.00-6.30pm. Launching Thursday 18th April, for ages 13 and over.
OWL SERVICE spotted the plates, seen as either owls or flowers, that inspired the Alan Garner novel, 1960, in @britishlibrary; In the MABINOGION, Gwydion creates a woman out of flowers, Blodeuedd, who becomes a flower-faced owl; the children find themselves reenacting this in the present
One of my favourite dictionary facts: the verb ‘go’ has always lacked a past tense based on itself. So we opted for the past tense of ‘wend’, as in ‘to wend one’s way’. Which means that instead of ‘I goed’, we say ‘I went’.
🧵'We shouldn't be bullied into believing people can be any sex they want to be', said Prime Minister @RishiSunak at @Conservatives conference yesterday.
@OED says the verb 'to bully' means 'seek to harm, intimidate, or coerce (someone perceived as vulnerable).'

Tonight's the night!
Our FM, Emma, is very excited about the return of @AllCreaturesTV.
Why not pop into @HaltonLibraries tomorrow to grab a copy of the books it's based on? Full of wit and wisdom, just like the show, they're sure to bring a smile to your face. EB
