It always starts like this. Later there will be running and screaming. In my case limping and screaming ... Delivery hell has just got worse. Royal Mail postie pushed a note through the door; it's for an unpaid customs charge. I've just entered all the fucking details (address, my height size of dick) in their feetopay bit, ticked the customs charge for it to tell me that there's a customs charge and direct me to a different feetopay form, which then makes me type in the barcode WHICH THEN SAYS IT'S NOT IN THE FUCKING COUNTRY SO I CAN'T PAY THE CHARGE. I'm keeping calm; it could get worse... "If you’ve already received charge details and we’re displaying this message, you’ll need to pay in person at your local customer service point or by using stamps or a meter impression as described in our post to you." This is actually an impossibility, so it looks like the CD I have been hunting down for 40 years will end up going back to Japan. To top it all Amazon are about to dump another parcel due in the batch tomorrow and run... |

Chumbles There's a scam that involves that. Is it legit?

There was an old lady who swallowed a fly, perhaps she'll die.
What are we doing?

Chumbles There's a scam that involves that. Is it legit? Yep; I saw the postie scuttling off at high speed and typed their internet address into the address line; it's a genuine Royal Mail fuck up/catch 22... Solved it; the solution is to register an account, put the details in, but NOT the reference number on the grey card (that just sends you back into the hell loop) and you can then get your payment processed ... The second Mr Amazon was a right surly cunt* who smacked his fist into the centre of my very expensive stained glass front door panel (in spite of instructions not to do that) and tried to drop the parcels (including bandaging supplies) on the floor in the pouring rain. It took my stentorian bellow to correct the situation. *It was pissing it down tbf |

I started Star Wars fallen order last night made it to planet number 2.
I quite like it. Seems mostly like a slightly interactive cut scene so far without a huge amount of gameplay.
I can see why people have said there are souls comparisons but theyve got it badly wrong as parrying seems easier than jumping and rolling.
Maybe I can upgrade my rolling away force techniques later in the game.

I played Player Unknown's Battlegrounds for a while yesterday.
It was a good experience. Nice. I lay down on a grassy knoll with my friend, shooting the breeze. We drove around, I fired a bazooka.
I like the game.

Hi
Demon's wasn't as successful last night. I started at the Nexus and spent my souls. Got about 6 points which I split between Vig, Str, End. I then returned to the stone where I defeated Phalanx and went straight ahead. Bashed a few of those stabby blob things in shells and then spent most of the rest of the time legging it across bridges trying not to get cremated by a giant red dragon. Mr dragon is great for clearing away enemies. Have I got time to go back and pick up that loot? The answer is usually no. I checked a help guide online and it said I should do 2-1 next rather than 1-2, so maybe I'll try that tonight.
OTTM, no.

If you have a bow and say 200 arrahs you can stand at the top of the first tower and shoot down Red D.
You get the bow from the second tower and the arrahs from the blacksmith in the nexus
You aim at the gatehouse where you came from.

New gadget:  It works really well, though we now have a mountain of grated cheese. 4* |

Podcasts to listen to at night, any good crime recommendations?
Making that much grated cheese sounds good, what else can you grate with it?
Gardening is now on hold, the small wood chipper worked well but I think body disposal would need a lot of work before hand.
