I never thought a caption would make me snort, but I had not considered "Mike (right)". A lovely piece!

I’m so happy the rogue trinkets I leave throughout my pieces still have the ability to make Lia Snijman snort ❤️‍🔥

Shoutout Mudgie! Thanks for being one of the young Grade 8s who watched me (and, in turn, helped me become a better version of myself).

Mini meg would probably remind me that most of my problems can be resolved by a strong cup of five roses and a think on the stoep. Thanks to this reminder, I’m currently waiting for my kettle to boil 🫖

Wholesome. I haven't had a strong cup of five roses in a while, and I don't have a stoep. Excited to see how things change when both elements enter my life.

Shoutout Shaun. Thank you for reading my story, and thanks for always being a supporter along the way. I love that this comment would look at home under any of my other unpublished stories I still need to digest. I'm sure your comment would look at home underneath many of your stories, too. #doitforshaun

SUCH a beautiful game. I was reminded of it by the currant Bishops 1st XI this weekend. It was like watching eleven well-pruned rose bushes running around the field.
