I've just been down a YouTube black hole of mechanical keyboard modding.
All the Korean lads. Four stars.

I've heard that 120 Days of Sodom is an engaging read. Any bloggers read it?

Morning all,
Long weekend which was made longer due to editing a podcast interview.
Still at least I didn't go for 40 minutes in before I realised I hadn't pressed the record button. Oh...hang on...

I watched Salò, once, which was apparently based on 100 Days of Sodom. It wasn’t for me. I wouldn’t have sought it out but someone I worked with lent it to me. He said I had to see it.

I have been looking at new GPUs and I found a 3080 for €700 at the weekend but talked myself out of getting one as that seemed a lot to spend on a GPU. That one then sold out right away and now all the 3080 I find are €1,500 plus. I won't hesitate next time I find a €700 one.
It seems like a crazy time to buy PC parts.

The 30xx GPUs are in ridiculous short supply, that's why I won't be getting my new PC until later in the year.

Not like you’re doing anything else with your money at the moment. Consider it as spending money on a holiday.

That is because Tiddles has recently discovered computer pron and is buying all the graphics cards to display all the horrible images at their best.

BabyfarkmcGeezakThanks to Brexit you'll probably find your €700 will cost more like €1000.

I have a bounty of Euros, stuffed into a Mrs Elswood Haimisha Cucumber jar. A sound investment.

Has Lazy cornered the market in Euro pickles?

I call it 'The Money Jar'.
It used to just have coins, emptied out from my pocket. Now it has Euros ... Because I have nowhere else to spend them.

I'm sure everyone's got a Money Jar.
I don't know why I'm making out mine is so special.

We have a jar for coppers, a toad shaped thing and a silver tin for silver coins.
When I first met PM I had several large jars full of coppers and 5p and 10p, she relished going through it all and bagging it up for the bank. There was about £80 there in total.
I then started using her two jars but the money kept disappearing as PM raided it too often, so I don't bother any more and use them at the self-service till.

Is £80 a good haul in return for putting up with Baby?

I made another curry - a 'curry' with the master-sauce yesterday. It was ok. It resulted in a thick, bhuna-like gravy. It was similar to a take-away curry but I think ... on balance ... I prefer the curries detailed by Madhur Jaffrey. Madhur Jaffrey knows what she's talking about.
Moribund chat.
