not me, a south african ground squirrel, but we both tend to bimble at times.
kind of like a saunter or an amble, but cooler.

I often describe my countryside walks as ‘Bimbling about’, it’s a great word!
Best wishes, Pete.

Bimble about… An excellent phrase a character might use with another, and the use triggers dialogue to explain the term. Thanks, Beth!

What an unusual, and appropriate word to describe walking around aimlessly. I wonder what it’s origin is.

I just looked up bimble, it has several definitions: from the walk you described, to a drink with CBD, to a platform of a company, to a little round headed toy. Very interesting to have so many varied definitions.
