Extra points amipal for not calling it a "Jacket' potato. Fucking jacket potato. Its a baked potato. And just doing it in the microwave? Don't get me started. Hello! Lunch was leek and potato soup. Dinner is currently in the oven. Turkey meatloaf with spuds and broccoli. Sorted out the garage chest freezer earlier. Got rid of all the out of date body parts and got an up to date list of what's actually in the bugger. Shall add to a spreadsheet later to stick on the fridge door. A print out. A pen drive wouldn't be much use would it. A nice wee merlot while I cook. Games and TV will hopefully entertain me later. |

Evening
ORBIT ENERGY:
phone call at my expense -
"how can I help", followed by a 'chat' about who I am, my account and so called debt. After explaining in great detail why I DON'T owe them which included reference to payment dates etc...
..."let me just put you on hold" ........(I may have raised my voice just a little to be heard over the usual rhetoric)...................... the dots of time ticking away minutes of my life. A looong time later............................nothing".
phoned back and used the ring back service "48 hours later, 96 hours later"
Kane is not happy

"A baked potato, known in the United Kingdom as jacket potato" if you trust Wikipedia.
Isn't Scotland still in the UK?

I am yet to 'beat' Dark Souls 2. When I do I will maybe think about playing Demon's Souls again. Then I will probably decide I should devote my game playing time to something else. Like a heavily discounted mid-1990s Microprose game on Steam.
How are you?

Nobody says jacket potato except for the Famous Five and the protagonists of Swallows and Amazons.

"A baked potato, known in the United Kingdom as jacket potato" if you trust Wikipedia. Isn't Scotland still in the UK? The article in question says at the top: "This article needs additional citations for verification" But I've updated the page to amend the divisive language thanks. |

Look what Tapatalk has done. It's turned me into Shenguin. Oh, well, someone has to be Shenguin, I suppose. You can be Shenguin if you want. That would give me the chance to be someone else for a bit, which would be nice. In other news, I love a nice jacket potato. Butter and cheese, keeping it real. |

I bought a heavily discounted Sleeping Dogs on steam. Coz I really don't have enough open world romps in my backlog.
Coffee and a couple of squares of Green & Blacks 85% cocoa dark chocolate. Lovely stuff.

I don't really like baked potatoes.
Far and away the worst way to cook a potato.
Throw it in the bin and have a nice roastie instead.

I'm with lazybones on this, apart from the coleslaw thing, which is just wrong. |

You may be thinking of Keith Floyd. Though he wasn't Swedish. Or a hotelier. No. Definitely Jimmy; ex-Chelsea and Boro player; loved his spuds. |

Morning all,
On the Demons today. Went into 1-1 to buy some armour from the shopkeeper only to find they'd gone. Bit rude. Went into 5-1 looking for the Blessed Mace, made it quite far but got mobbed and ended up accidentally making a death defying dash along the outside rim of a bridge, rather than the bridge itself, before shitting it and running back and getting banged. Top banana.
Massive 4K HDR TV coming tomorrow? Yep. Project cinco pulled off to a tea.
