Is it just me and my shonky eyesight, but...
a)In the header pic, does Scamander have 2 left legs? b)If Chumbles' Curiosity pic was really taken on Mars, why can I see a clear reflection of B.A. Baracus in the camera lens?

To disinvite is to withdraw or cancel an invitation. If you have not been invited in the first place you are uninvited. This is what I initially thought, but if you are not invited in the first place, you are just that, not invited, not uninvited. To un something it has to be done in the first place. We untie shoe laces, we undo the mishaps of others etc...

If you dislike a post then you just don't like it. If you unlike it then you revoke your original liking.

An uninvited guest isn't one who was originally invited.

We untie shoe laces, we undo the mishaps of others etc... They both mean the same thing, i.e. "withdraw or cancel an invitation to". But 'to uninvite' is hardly ever used as an active verb. Instead the participle 'uninvited' in its adjectival use has come to denote "not invited in the first place" rather than "having an invitation revoked", as in "an uninvited guest". I told you English was hard and made no sense.

This whole thing would have been a lot clearer if the French had just told her to fuck off. It's this 'disinvite' nonsense that's caused all the confusion

Hor hee hor.
Morning!
Our neighbours gifted us a box of mixed Ferrero Rocher. One of the varieties was a new (to me) coconut flavour. Game changer.
Played more FIFA career mode. You can learn all sorts in the training drills. I can now do a feint shot to sit the keeper down before I jink round him and tap it into an empty net (in theory anyway).
OTTM, time to batten down the hatches. Strong winds and possible snow forecast for tonight/tomorrow.

PM is sorting a takeaway. I hope she plays it safe and goes for fish and chips. I have nightmares still of the pizza she ordered last time.

Booster update: my upper arm is starting to ache now. That’ll be the inflammation at the site of injection then.

Christmas is going to get cancelled again isn't it? I watched a YouTube video earlier where Byline TV vox-popped folk on the London Underground who weren't wearing masks. They asked them why and they all said because those in charge weren't so why should they. What a bag of shite. You're not wearing a mask as BJ etc isn't in the house of commons or at the theatre or whatever? I really wished they'd called them out on it. The real reason is you're all bawbags. Simples.

So Jodie Whittaker becomes the new Doctor Who, and then 4 years later people stop wearing masks.
Is it any wonder?
