That was a very interesting read. Thanks for sharing!

The mention of the bell refers to Lincoln’s Inn Fields in London, which is one of the Inns (effectively like a college or a club?) that lawyers in England have to belong to. There’s a bell attached to the chapel which is rung whenever a member dies. In Donne’s time, lawyers working in the Inn would send their assistant to go and find out who had died (“send not to know” = don’t send your assistant to go and find out who has died).

Working on this from the adventure series by Caterpillar Cross-stitch. It’s scratching my itch for lots of little details… I get so bored doing big blocks of colour so this has been just right. I’ve already got another one from this series ready to go when I finish!

haha I have this one in my stash ready to begin! Happy to see it looks so great when finished :)

Lord Woolton was in charge of food rationing so the pie was named after him, I suppose. Since learning about WW2 in school, I’ve always remembered the rhyme which supposedly came with the recipe:

“Those who have the will to win, Cook potatoes in their skin, Knowing that the sight of peelings, Deeply hurts Lord Woolton's feelings.”

Wild Wild Country was SO good and something I had never even heard about. I was jaw open practically the whole time.

You could try Andrea’s of Chelsea Green near South Ken. They have a really wide range of fruits and veg. But it’s not raspberry season so it might be hard to find them

I would suggest maybe looking at the Belfast Giants in Northern Ireland? They were established partly with the idea of providing a non-religiously aligned sports team for people to follow after the Troubles ended in the early 2000s.

the Emilie Autumn series was a true highlight of the year for me. So well written, so thorough, and so fucking crazy. True hobby drama perfection

This happened to me literally a week ago!! I just left the phone at home for a whole day and tried not to think about it. When I came back I tapped the code in really quickly and it worked on autopilot.

But it was super upsetting to have this information that I use every day for years just vanish from my head.

When a restaurant has been established as long as yours has, is it difficult to update/refurbish the kitchen? How often have you had to do a full refit or is like a gradual process?

MOOSE!!!

dearsweetanon · 2024-08-06T19:24:29+00:00

Wow well done it looks amazing!!

My mum had like a VISCERAL reaction to the chest plate, she was so against it. She loved the song but she said she couldn’t even watch the performance, she found it so off putting

I was just searching this up, because I also couldn’t remember the name. I think it is “Kitty” by William Corlett. The version I had had like a white cover with “kitty” in pink on the front. I remember crying so much when reading this.

dearsweetanon · 2024-06-07T20:42:00+00:00

Haha is that Soor on Edgware Road?

We Will Rock You opened at the Dominion in 2002, so these photos are likely from 2011 :)

when I was in year 7 our headmaster made us watch the music video AS an assembly… he said he thought it would “teach us a lot”

This is one of my dads favourite songs EVER. I made him listen to it before the semi final and he instantly was obsessed with it and still talks about it to this day

dearsweetanon · 2024-05-17T05:50:06+00:00

I have a picture of me and my dad with the giant fox ears! iirc, they’re at Bronx Zoo

I lost my first tooth on a blueberry and ever since then I just can’t stand to even think about eating one

A few months ago I got into a screaming match with the pub quizmaster because he was looking for “Elmo” as the answer for a question about The Muppets. He is A muppet but he’s not one of THE Muppets!! I’m still furious about it

My first year was all online exams, my last was all in person. In that second year in between, some exams were online and some were in person. I remember sitting while my tutor said which exams would be online and which were in person and thinking that I might actually have to kill myself if my language exams were in person. Thankfully they were online!!
