turpsI'm meeting Kayleigh and Chris for sibs dinner later, only actual sibs this time as James and Lucy are both working and my brother's partner never comes to these meetups. It took me nearly an hour yesterday to actually get a booking anywhere as everywhere was full of people taking advantage of the eat out to help out scheme, which I don't blame them for as that's what we wanted too, but it wasn't to be. At one point it was looking like we'd have to meet at McDonald's, but then I found a local pub that does pretty nice food but isn't taking part in the scheme, so they had plenty of tables available. I'm looking forward to it, I haven't seen my brother since before lock up, so we'll have a lot to catch up on.
I saw on Insta that the new cat cafe in Durham is opening today. I was worried it had folded as last time we were in Durham it looked abandoned, but no, they must have been working away behind the boarded-up windows. It looks like they're going to have a handful of pedigree cats in the cafe with rotating foster cats that will be available for adoption, unlike Mog where all the cats are rescues that stay in the shop full time
More good news, there's a new Musketeer dragon story to read. The writer is prolific but posts each story in parts, usually two or three a week but I quickly learned not to read as WIPs as I would get impatient coming to the end of a part, especially when they ended on a cliffhanger. Typically, each story is four parts, but the last one was nine, that led to a lot of impatient waiting I'll tell you.
I saved the very pretty icon I'm using on DW from this post. I do like a twinkling star.
