Thanks to Kathy I have a ready-made post here today. Very handy, as I have arrived in Germany and am now spending my time doing the “tech” organisation (anything involving the digital world) for my mum, as well as fiddly work like cleaning off the silicone residue in the bathroom. Best part of today: spray-painting a small garden table (originally owned by me, ca. 1985 – no lie) from bright red to sapphire blue… Anyway, Kathy left a couple of odes in the comments, and I am pairing them with an illustration.
Yep, that season of BS was BS…
Kathy – spot on. Thank you for sharing your odes with us.
PS: Apparently there is a release date for The Lodge in Germany now. Herba reports that it will open the “Fantasy Filmfest” which takes place across several German cities from 4th September. I’m definitely missing that.
Guylty Pleasure 
Kathy’s odes rock!! Always a pleasure to read them. Hope you are well and hustle and bustle of your mum’s move is progressing w/out too much stress. Do you have a pic of your garden table spray painting masterpiece?

I took a “Before” picture – and am currently stuck in the “during” 😂. Couldn’t finish properly because it started to rain yesterday – and I am spraying outside… Waiting for the weather to become dry again. The table only needs one more coat and then should be good to go…

LOL – and I promptly forgot. The project is finished – I managed to spray the last few coats when we had a sunny spell today. But then I took the table down to the new flat. I’ll take a picture there, to be included in tomorrow’s round-up 🙂

Kathy said it better than I could. I have the season, but I’ve yet to watch it and don’t think I want to. I’ve seen that man die enough.
Packing sucks.

Zee the whole season 3 sucks worse than Spooks S9 by far. Very little Daniel and stupid plot and subplots IMO. No happily ever after I am afraid..
Kathy’s Odes are fabulous and always brilliant!!She has a wonderful way with words and rhymes!
You are doing so good packing. A lot to be happy about especially Shady!!

Shady was an answer to prayer. It’s the exact same amount as the previous house I wanted and it’s MUCH bigger.
Way much bigger.

It was an answer to prayer. I wasn’t even looking at it, even tho I’d seen it a few times, because it was more than I wanted to pay (by 50.00!) but we’ll budget and stick to it!

Zee listen if you weigh all the options and Shady ticked off a lot of boxes for you then you minimize on other er stuff (ie you know what I mean and there’s housewarming gifts also to look forward to) so you adapt and make it work. You are resilient and strong and smart!! So proud of you!!

Kathy definitely expresses how we all feel. Seriously, what is RA trying to prove by dying at the end of his roles? He’s not Sean Bean.

Precisely. All this dying is meh. And Sean Bean has it covered.
