In all my years I’ve never considered boozy milkshakes. This will be rectified.

Signed off a work email draft with “Mumm Ra The Ever Living” forgot to remove it before sending it. 🤷🏻‍♂️
No one said anything - so this is me now, I guess.

Perfect.

Well, I’ve run out of body parts for my experiments, so I guess I’ll call it a night.

This has me tittering. The referenced verse being about inner peace and calm is not helping things.

Your words give credence to a scene in The Witcher (tv series) where an owl attacks and kills a man. I kinda scoffed at it, but now that you say talons and arteries, it does bring it into reality.
Side note: The owl was actually a transformed witch - I had no problem believing that.

Good morning.

I reckon that the people on X need to hear The Green Party’s message more than anyone else.

One time, I disabled the nsfw filter cos you’re all pretty, and, well, fomo. The next day, on the bus home, I searched for “scent” and unwittingly presented the lady next to me an image of a guy sniffing a jockstrap which was attached to another guy’s crotch. 🫣

My eldest has started drinking water and then audibly burping in my face.
I’ve told him that it’s impolite, but he just meows happily and walks away.

It’s totally understandable - the world has lost its collective mind. Remember to switch off from time to time, it’s ok to pretend everything is fine for a while, to protect yourself.
For what it’s worth, I enjoy your posts, and look forward to them. ♥️

2/2 The dry down has a Louis Vuitton Ombré Nomade vibe to it, but no oud, less growl, more a snuggly hug from a strong but gentle, leather gloved gardener, who’s been knee deep in flowers and greenery all day. Perhaps one for next autumn or a balmy summer’s eve.

I have a sample of Tom Ford’s Ombré Leather. I was dubious, I don’t like leather generally. BUT, having said that, it’s soft, like suede, and the sweet floral heart gives it a comforting vibe that has me repeatedly sniffing. I don’t like florals, so this balance has me pleasantly surprised. 1/2

The scent world isn’t just about fine fragrance, and honestly, who knew about half of these things? Well, I do, now. Intriguing read:

The bottle I’m pouring is Vanille Fleur de Café with notes of Coffee Blossom, jasmine, and uses a vanilla tincture that has been aged for 2 years. This is a limited release production due to the time it takes to make the tincture, but I’m pretty sure it’s going to end up being your favorite vanilla.

If I cooked like I (try to) make perfume:

Stewed rhubarb with Demerara sugar - lovely.
Chunky crumble & added oats - perfect balance.
Madagascan vanilla custard & extra cream - divine.
Crushed green twigs from the garden & a sprinkling of iron-filings - so whimsical. 💁🏻‍♂️

Why does this taste so bad?

Love this. Imma go wake my cat up now - mandatory cuddles time. 🐈‍⬛

This is a line of work I could really get behind. I imagine it’s not just limited to theme parks.

These days I’m certain it was mostly Ethyl Maltol and a smattering of fruit oils. What I can’t figure out is whether the damp smell was geosmin, piped in on purpose, or just a consequence of having a warmish water ride in an enclosed space.

Fantastic. Any chance we can see a colour version? I love how the vibrant reds fade to dustier tones.

The one thing that has stuck with me from my one and only trip to Chessington World of Adventures, about 25 years ago, are the scents from Professor Burp’s Bubbleworks. I hope they had fun making them, and I hope you have fun in Florida!

Love this. Who is the model with such angles?

Get well soon!

Cupping a candle in her hands, a woman in pale blue robes stands on a rock strewn hill in an autumnal wooded scene. Her cheeks are flush in the glow of the flame. White cloth wraps her head, constraining red hair. The wrap drapes down her side falling with a shawl-like fringe. A Douglas fir rises behind her, an evergreen amid bare skeletal trees with barely any leaves. Golden leaves carpet the forest floor. Two white doves perch on the ground nearby.

Whenever it’s been a tough year, I’ve found a way to portray that quietly in my annual holiday card. 1/2

A cartoon depicting an anthropomorphised loaf of bread that has a worried expression on its face and is wringing its hands.

One time my Alexa shopping list (which I don’t use) contained the item “Existential Bread”.
There’s something wonderfully daft about that.

Urgh. I forgot how utterly bleak and harrowing the season finale of Doctor Who series 10 was. Inescapable post industrial dystopia. I rarely watch it because it messes me up, but the music just brought it screaming back. 😭😭

Glimpse of Freedom

Doctor Who Series 10 soundtrack finally released — eight years after the show aired. “A Glimpse of Freedom” unfolds into a layered thematic reprise, merging the 12th Doctor’s theme (A Good Man?) with echoes of Bill Potts’ suite. ❤️❤️❤️ I Love Murray Gold’s work.
