Also tried “Enlisted”, a free to play ww2 shooter. I seemed to be mostly playing against bots, and was quickly taken out by B1gDave2010. The game was moribund, but it did leave me wanting to know more about B1gDave2010. What makes him tick? Does he have any hobbies? Is he a bridge painter made redundant by bridge collapse in the former Soviet Union? Or a barista in a hip central London coffee boutique who has a side job as a dog walker? Why is the year 2010 significant to him? The developers should have to write character profiles explaining all of this when they make bots. I wondered what had happened to lazybones.

His little brother Chris will be starting school this year.

Surely a 10/11 year old shouldn’t be playing violent video games though? You’ve got to have some realism in your bot characters.

Or you were defeated by a 10 year old? Great minds, etc.

Should have been 3. Corrected.
Hoovering, dusting, bathroom all done. Currently "waiting on the bathroom floor to dry" i.e. sitting on my phone.
Roasted a chicken earlier for dinner. Need to carve the fucker.

Morning Chazzas! Games - I downloaded PUBG yesterday to give that a quick go, it was some kind of volcano map. I landed in a little villagelet and there seemed to be someone else parachuting down there too. Grabbed a gun and readied for the inevitable showdown. On further inspection I couldn’t find anyone, so I hopped on a motorbike. Rode towards civilisation only to suddenly start taking damage, my bike slowed, the tires melted off, and I died in some lava. 4 stars. Also tried “Enlisted”, a free to play ww2 shooter. I seemed to be mostly playing against bots, and was quickly taken out by B1gDave2010. The game was moribund, but it did leave me wanting to know more about B1gDave2010. What makes him tick? Does he have any hobbies? Is he a bridge painter made redundant by bridge collapse in the former Soviet Union? Or a barista in a hip central London coffee boutique who has a side job as a dog walker? Why is the year 2010 significant to him? The developers should have to write character profiles explaining all of this when they make bots. The volcano map is rubbish. They removed it not long after introducing it, but now it's back. It's very bland with too many bushes. I tried a few duo matches lat night, managed a couple of 2nd places.

Also Enlisted looks rubbish.

Morning all!
A visit to my brother and his brood this morning. I then joined the queue of traffic where EVERYONE IN BRITAIN was trying to get to the south coast.
Gamesblog: nope
TVblog: It’s Always Sunny (The Gang Turn Black and the waterpark episode), then Babylon 5.
Camerablog: sorted some submissions for the Landscape or Leading Lines competition. I have no idea why we’re doing dual-subject competitions now.
Carblog: I’m still giving it all a lot of thought.

Hi
I like the volcano map in PUBG. Good atmosphere - good volcano.
I’ve mainly been playing the ‘Team Deathmatch’ option (in PUBG): I’m trying to get fast - trying to develop the reflexes of a mongoose. I want to play it all the time.
I have not played Enlisted ...

I’m watching a film called ‘The Crack in the World’.
It seems pretty good so far. A company / organisation want to use a nuclear warhead to pierce the earth’s mantle and access the magma for geothermal energy purposes.
I might be hooked.

It looks like the employees of this company are working in Goldfinger’s lair.

There's all sort of wrong with this comment. (FYI - that took me 15 seconds). Julian May, 10 characters including the space? Though I guess you also had to hit Enter and click on the results. Still - that's some slow typing.

Hello, fellow 'boxers.
Today I spent much of the day sitting in the garden in sunshine, reading, drinking and listening to old Atletico Mince podcasts (from December 2016) on my phone.
Dear reader I laughed. A lot. And the more I drank, the more I laughed.
A good day.

(and news agents).

European Superleague? Who'd have thunk it! Still, while we wait for Spurs vs Juventus on telly 4 nights a week, plenty lolz to be had watching thepremierleague acting like it's the guardian of cloth cap sporting authenticity.

I agree with millionaire former premier League star Gary Neville that it's just driven by greed.

On the plus side, given a choice of 6 English clubs I would happily never see or hear from again they would be in the top 10.
