Girls' Own advice retweeted
So it’s a wee bit of a leap over to the 🦋 place, where I’ve got 70 followers rather than 33,000, but some of the nicest people are already there and I hope more friends give it a try. See you there for the Sunday caption contest, my name there is also @GirlsOwn
@adampollock A tablespoonful of cayenne? Sounds way too much for Katsu or indeed any recipe
@Libmoggy @HorribleSanity @ErburyOldBoy @Daily_Mustard @GrahamBrack Will see how it goes, not deleting the old account but not planning to post there unless 🦋 really doesn’t work out.
Well done to the witty winners of last Sunday’s caption contest. 🥇@HorribleSanity 🥈 @ErburyOldBoy 🥉@Daily_Mustard 4th @GrahamBrack This Sunday hope to see you at the 🦋 place where I have the same @GirlsOwn name.
@Vintage_Maggie Blue sky, like Twitter in its layout
@stega1958 It did amuse me! Rather love that some Victorian young lady was trying to jazz up church gatherings
The rhymes are imperfect in the verse you send, but they have some poetical feeling. We are sure you had pleasure in writing them, so by all means continue, but please do not send them to us for publication.
@PeterJones40 Gorillas’ Own indeed 😱
@JoEdkins Publishes some, to me, painfully bad poetry but not from correspondents. They are sending in faint hope of publication but mainly hoping to be an exception to the criticism I think. And as she often comments, young people love writing morbid poetry.
@kayemcelle Yes, she’d definitely consider it kind and encouraging
@Susanki70043012 We trained up our successors
@DadburnTheKid True poetical feeling
