Baking. Photos. Theatre. Reading. Films. Writing. Wrangler of Henry and Matilda the cats. Arsenal fan, so a bit up and down generally. She/her.

Well will you look at that - last posted exactly six months ago. Anyway, this is just the occasional post to keep the account alive - here’s Matilda helping me wind some yarn.

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

@sianrosserevans I know you will, and I’ll be thinking of you! Please give Damocles a hug from this woman on the internet he has never met but who is rooting for him! ❤️

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

Dimly remember reading something about having to post here occasionally to keep the account active - that may or may not be right but here is a nice picture of Henry.

@amolrajan I just wanted to say thank you for a brilliant season. You’ve created a warm, friendly atmosphere while retaining the rigour needed for this type of quiz, and you’ve allowed all the brilliant young people to shine. And I love how much you clearly enjoy it!

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

Honestly that made me so angry I forgot I don’t really post here anymore…

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

Well I’m over 50 and he can fuck right off. And take that patronising ‘Saga-generation’ bollocks with him.

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

@Cat_Stover And to you!

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

Popping in to say the very happiest of new years to the increasingly tiny number of people who might see this! In case it’s of interest I’m starting a ‘photo a day’ thing on Instagram, so if you’d like to keep up with the cats (plus other stuff, honest!) I’m mspaulameyer there!

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

Popped in to see how everything was on here and got an advert for a knuckleduster. An actual knuckleduster. So who needs Disney, obviously.😳

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

@MooseAllain Thank you so much for doing this! It’s joined the Christmas traditions in our house and I still really enjoy getting my colouring pencils out even though my daughter’s grown up!

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

@RosannaCrama Thank you! We are - it’s lovely for her because she did work really hard!

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

The daughter just finally got her degree result and she got a First! So there’s now someone in the family with a Double First from Cambridge, and that’s *weird*… Flashback to the summer, when she sort-of graduated but without a result because of the marking boycott!

They may not be the currency they once were, but I have three codes for 🔵sky if any mutuals would like one.

Hello! I have two free copies of the UK hardback of #SearchingforJuliet to give away! Like this post and I'll pick two accounts at random tomorrow. RTs much appreciated to give as many people a chance as possible! You don't need to be in the UK to join in.

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

Just popping back briefly to share a proud mum moment - the daughter matriculated in the rain today before starting her MPhil in Early Modern History @Catz_Cambridge. Think my rainbow brolly adds a cheerful touch!

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

@NickMotown Oh, I’m so sorry. The best of good boys.

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

As I pack my belongings and sweep the dust bunnies out of the corners, I would be delighted to see any of you over at that blue place with the sky, where I am @mspmeyer.bsky.social

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

Henry asks if I could look him in the eye if I gave that ridiculous Emerald Baby my credit card details. I could not, so I am beginning to pack up my little corner here…

[Paula @MsPMeyer]

@Jaynee_R Good idea! It would be so nice to have a proper front runner in the alternatives - at present I’m scattered about and more often than not post nothing at all. It makes it harder to break the habit of coming here!
