Toasters
Me: I have toast now. Toasters don't toast toast, people toast toast
Jenny: But the toaster helps.
Me: It does, if I just stared at the bread, it wouldn't toast itself. But also, if I just held the toaster with no bread in it, the bread would still not be toasted.
Jenny: No, but that's not the action of toasting. That's just holdig a random object and staring at the rain.
Me: Yes it is, but either way, it takes me, a human, to lift the bread and put it in the toaster, and push a button, for bread to become toast.
Jenny: It is weird to me that this is blowing your mind.
Me: I'm using it as a metaphor for guns
Jenny: I know Steph. lol

So today has been a good day so far! Had my first driving lesson which I think went quite well, didn’t crash or kill anyone and my instructor was nice and seemed pleased with how I did. So I shall book another one :-)
Came home, managed to plant out the cucumber, rocket and little gems from the cold frame, and planted two rows of lettuce, one of “Rein Du Glace” or “ice...

Going off on holiday now! Quick weekend in the London area seeing family and friends, and then as of Monday, if anyone needs me for a week I’ll be in the south of France.
So in other words, if anyone needs me, tough.
Laters ya’ll!

The dog won’t get on the sofa because the cat is there, and she is scared of him despite being about 5 times his side. She keeps coming up to me like I should move so she can have my seat.

So today I said “oh I need to get some nasturtium seeds” because I want to plant them near the cabbages to encourage the cabbage white butterflies to eat them instead. My bf’s mum says “I have those already”
So I had a little rummage in the seed box, which has all the ones I’ve bought this year, and a load that she’s had for a while. And I found them. The...
