What better tea-for-one set for me: it features a sheep, it says “woolly” and there are two and a three-dimensional. The sheep and woolly ties in with my last name 🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏 😃

DIY: Make Your Own Vortex
Just make sure it doesn’t swallow you up!
This “machine”, if you want to call it that, stands on a local playground. You operate the water propeller at the bottom with a crank and the water begins to swirl – creating a vortex.
The Ragtag Daily Prompt: Vortex
Whoop, Whoop! Opa!
When I was three years old I contracted whooping cough. At the time, the treatment consisted of symptomatic relief, and caregivers were advised to let patients into fresh air, preferably sea or mountain climate.
We neither had close to us but for six weeks my grandpa put me on his shoulders and walked up these hills until we reached the castle on the left, quite a lot of steep paths through the thick forest in wonderful, healthy air.
He was indefatigable.
The Ragtag Daily Prompt: Indefatigable
Nettles Don’t Burn This Month
Old chestnut of a joke to get somebody to touch the nettles and test the statement. It is, of course, always correct: nettles may sting a person but never a month.
The Ragtag Daily Prompt: Nettle
And this Is Why We Have a Flat Cat
NB: Next time, buy light covered desk chairs. Alternatively, change cat.
It’s Not Classic
Germans used to be quite Francophile but these days English rules. So petillant water is marketed as “medium”, as opposed to “classic” (i.e. highly effervescent).
Petillant water is moderately sparkling water. Lots of people like it. To me it could be labelled “used to be sparkling, now just stale”.
For FOWC with Fandango: Moderate and The Ragtag Daily Prompt: Petillant.
