The description says comfy, but they dont look particularly comfy to me. I don't really have much experience with heeled shoes though.

Oh man, using that would feel and look pretty pro, I'd imagine.

Lady T's dad has a special (well, 'ish') video editing computer set up, and it has a keyboard that has colour coded buttons and shortcut labels on it. But what you've got is next level. Nice.

I bought two (TWO!) extendable cobweb brushes, and a duster on an extendable pole. I let the kids choose the colours of the cobweb brushes so one is RED and the other is BLUE.

I am excited at the prospect of having nice looking ceilings inside, and clean eaves/window frames / covered area outside

I’ve just googled Cobweb brush and I can’t really see how it differs from a duster?

Ah, the ones I saw were very fluffy. I just use a normal fluffy duster, but you’ve got tougher spiders there, so maybe the webs put up a harder fight.

You may have to give me a few weeks to figure it all out... The best bit is the jog wheel though. That's lovely to slide through a time line. So fluid..

Also, this came with the software license which I'll be able to sell and get most of my money back so it's a win win!

Oh right. So I will never look at the esc key in the same way.

Gone from satisfying 'get me out of here!' to slightly disappointing at a stroke.

It'd annoy the piss out of me that the ESC key isn't in the top left, tbh.

I like the ‘shitload’ key in the top right, which I guess just adds a load of random effects all at once.

The breeder saw that photo and went "oof", which doesn't suggest she's going to be small.

They do look like a look brush, yes.

Outside surfaces are quickly *covered* in cobwebs, thick strong ones. It's both impressive and a bit gross.

I find it makes an outside area go from looking quite nice to pretty tatty rather quickly.

Have you got a photo of her when you picked her up, Grim...? It says your previous picture is unavailable but I can’t remember how big she was to begin with. I’ve never seen a picture of a dog this big as a puppy, and wondered how she looked.

We don’t really get large visible outside cobwebs. Certainly nothing that holds up for more than a day or two, usually. I understand now why you need a veritable arsenal of brushes to deal with it. Are you ever worried about disturbing spiders that may be dangerous?

I’m not sure, even in horse terms, that she counts as ‘tiny’, though :D

Well we've also got an arsenal of bug sprays dotted around the house, and even some in the shed. I also periodically use a barrier spray around the doors and windows, so any nastys can be sprayed to oblivion.

It's somewhat strange though as the amount of cobwebs observed is far greater than the number of spiders we see so they must either be good at hiding or move on quickly.

AFAIK the really most dangerous ones are pretty much ground dwelling and spin fairly crappy webs but I do worry about it a little bit.

I figure if I remove the webs the spiders are less likely to claim a little niche, although I'm not sure if that's really true or not.

Exciting delivery day today. The new D&D sourcebook, Candlekeep Mysteries. First time I've ordered the limited edition cover and it's lovely.
Also got the new Critical Role top. I've been waiting for it to arrive in the UK store after they released it in Australia first so as soon as they got some stock in I had to order it. Hello Bees!
Finally, I got a new headset for my XBox Series X. Even though I can only find time for approx 2 hours of gaming every fortnight.
