Hard ice on the car this morning. Hard to scrape. Hot water to the rescue.
@matigo 13th of December but no year specified. Must be 2022….but they look fine.
I have spied some mince pies from last year in a plastic box on top of a kitchen cupboard. Do you think they’ll be edible?

""Early in life I have noticed that no event is ever correctly reported in a newspaper, but in Spain, for the first time, I saw newspaper reports which did not bear any relation to the facts, not even the relationship which is implied in an ordinary lie. I saw great battles reported where there had been no fighting, and complete silence where hundreds of men had been killed. I saw troops who had fought bravely denounced as cowards and traitors, and others who had never seen a shot fired hailed as heroes of imaginary victories; and I saw newspapers in London retailing these lies and eager intellectuals building emotional superstructures over events that never happened. I saw, in fact, history being written not in terms of what happened but of what ought to have happened according to various 'party lines.'"

I’ve gone off my wireless charging stand. I think it looks clunky and unattractive. I want to switch to a flat pad. I liked one of the Ikea ones but its reviews are terrible.
@matigo The period partly explains why it looks so bad then. The outfits and make-up look rather silly.
