So crank is a Harold Wilson? Same age as Tuffers. Happy birthday to both of you! Apparently I share a birthday with Anne Heche. Also Midnight Cowboy was released in the cinema.

I've just found out that James Callaghan was Prime Minister when I was born.
I never knew that.

Baron Wilson of Rievaulx apparently held the keys to No 10 when I was born.

GamesPlayer Unknown's Battlegrounds: I set up a custom game, for four people. I enjoyed it but sensed vague antipathy from one of the other players. I think he thought the four of us running round an empty island was somehow 'boring'. We played some other games and did sort of ok but didn't win anything. I told one member of the group that Demon's Souls was one of the best games I have ever played and another member - someone I have known for a very long time - seemed to think I was boasting when I said the difficulty element of it was overplayed. I've been trying to get my head round it. I can't think of the game as being 'difficult' because it's always clear what you have to do. And it is so good ... it draws you on. It makes you do what you have to do.
I feel misrepresented. I should probably mull on it for two weeks then send an angry message of clarification to the group chat.

I only had a vaccination because I thought I might need one to go on holiday, and didn't want to get labelled as an 'anti-vaxxer'.
I'd be awful in a Fascist state. They would play me like a fiddle.

Having played Diplomacy with you, you wouldn’t leave the house for fear of committing a thought crime.

Dear crankcaller, it is with profound joy that I wish you a happy Birthday, may your days be golden and your golden days be many. (or some sh**)! Don't know what all the fuss is about anyway, it's not like you get pressies and booze and jollies is it. Oh.

Valheim chat!
Done buggered things up again.... Sailed off scouting for a suitable location to build a base near some swamplands, so as to have a hub for mounting raids into the gloomy marshes. Found a nice tiny forested island, and made camp, but decided it wasn't really suitable and went off looking for a better option. Some while further on, and I've found a more promising site, and am clearing out the local nasties, when I am suddenly mullered out of nowhere by a 2 star draughr! Bastard! The upshot of this, is that I respawn at the last place I slept.... Yep. so I'm now naked and unarmed on a tiny wooded island, with no way to leave unless I can craft a raft. Only problem being, I need 6 leather scraps for a raft, which only come from killing 6 boar. On my island there are exactly zero piggies, and as they only spawn in meadows, I am out of luck hoping one will appear. I am properly stuffed.
Only 2 options.... Restart the game from scratch on a new world. Cheat.
A quick "spawn LeatherScraps 6" into the console, and the new raft is a thing of beauty ugly. I am off again, sailing naked in search of my corpse and hard-earned gear. Though tempting to ask the console to spawn a complete set of top range padded armour and a blackmetal sword, I resisted. Don't want to tempt the wrath of Odin any more than I already have. The saga continues....

I think I’ve been pretty amenable about going back in to the office, but now I’ve found out the desks are being moved and I’m at risk of losing my plum seat by the window. I’m pretty upset. I’m wondering if I should say I have a chronic anxiety condition. If I mention suicide in an email I guess they have to act?

Plus now some cunt has said he's feeling suicidal and wants the desk by the window. I think we'll need to move him up to at least the 4th floor, but if it's want he wants, I suppose we can help.

Lazy! Tell me about custom games in pubg? Is it still battle royale but with mates? Are there bots? In theory could we have a box death island?
Obviously not cross play as we don't want baby winning.

Hmm. My letter is here;
"If this appointment suits you then you do not need to confirm..."
They were also saying "why should I have to cancel something I didn't want"
Either way, Arseholes to them.
I couldn't get sushi & delicious Japanese street food delivered for my lunch as they can't come into east Ren from Glasgow. First world problems I realise.
