Lads, I don't know who isn't remembering Alt Text, but to drop to 66% is horrendous. If we don't sort this out we may end up with _consequences_ at the next "gathering" and none of us want that!!
You can sort your settings out so that it reminds you to Alt Text, and if you can't alttext please use the hashtag Alt4Me and someone will write you some alt text which you can then add to your post
Oh no. Good cheddar is a delight on a jacket potato.
It's such a shame you can't get a good strong cheddar over there
Right.
The freestyle snowboarding.
What they are doing is amazing, but can we have an old persons translation of the commentators please?
I am watching the curling,
I have no idea what is happening, despite my husband's best efforts.
Mostly, I just want a try of the slidy-grippy shoes combination. They look like so much fun.
Maybe I shall wear one grippy sock, and one normal sock next time I sweep the kitchen! That's got to be similar, right?
Hello folks that are here for the long tale of my recovery from my operation
It has now been a week (or will be in a few hours time). Today I am really struggling with it mentally, I am worn down by the pain and recovery process.
This has triggered a flare in my chronic pain too, which obviously isnt helping.
My poor longsuffering husband is having to put up with a very grumpy Petra.
For those keeping track,
I have had a rough couple of days, but now am feeling like I may actually get better from this operation and that I am not going to be like this forever
I am still exceedingly tender, but I am a little better than yesterday
Ohhh! So cute 
I wish to give them treats, their expressions are perfect!
I have just had occasion to use this sentence in a group chat and thought I would share my great wisdom with the assembled fediversians.
"I often use my shawl pin to wrap a blanket around my shoulders like a cape. Blanket cape superhero nonsense is a great way to get annoying tasks completed"
Then it isn't me doing the boring task, it is a superhero to the rescue and the novelty bumps my ADHD into action
The hospital I was in yesterday was not remotely autism friendly.
The lights in the rooms were bright and hurt, and I couldn't have my sunglasses
The admission process was confusing
People seemed reluctant to explain things properly in advance.
There were many beeps that were unexplained, and I couldn't have my earplugs
The exception to this was the anaesthetic team who were friendly, and suportive throughout, and the ward sister who, once asked, did come and talk me through things
Morning, Beige be with you!
My Good News for today
- My operation went well
- My husband is looking after me very well as I recuperate
- Tiny Dog is staying by my side to make sure I don't escape again
What is your good news for the day?
Good Morning, may all the blessings of Beige rain down upon you and your household.
My good news of the day:
- I am having a much needed operation that will hopefully have a positive knock on effect on my wider health
- Tiny Dog is enjoying her snuggles
- My Eldest child is still visiting
What is your good news for the day?
Ok my Beige buddies, in just over 12 hours my operation will take place.
I'm going to need you to be in top posting form so that when I come round I have a whole heap of cool stuff to read.
Could I perticularly request cute animals, silliness, funny tales and adorableness please.
Thanking you in all beigeness
Nope, hadn't heard of it
