The Official Nonsense Thread

[Caspin]

I was feeling somewhat inspired by Minty's efforts this week, so this morning I decided to wash one window of my flat. Yes, a whole window! I'm going to do one per weekend. This may sound as though I've set myself a rather easy target, but when you live in a flat that is not on the ground floor, washing the windows can be logistically challenging. Anyway, one down! In the process I dislodged two more spiders, who ran off screaming (well, they ran off and I did the screaming for them), to go with the three that I collected in a jar on Friday night. I swear there are dozens of them in here! There were also a lot of wasp husks, which would have pleased Minty, caught up in the old webs just outside the window. All is now tidy and I'm going to reward myself with some simming and a large cup of darjeeling.

Went out this morning to the Post Office and found that the whole street had been carpeted with conkers. The trees were hurling them off their branches and lots of kids were collecting them. Good autumnal fun (until one of them takes out an eye). I collected some specimens.




Yeah - get a load of my conkers!

I do love Autumn. Best season of them all.
