Morning
Office proper today for first time in 3 weeks.
My commuting shoes have developed mildew and cobwebs since last I needed them. Probably scorpions.
Dark outside. Dogs and pm asleep. This might just be an anxiety dream.

Hello. I was going to post a clip of the exorcism, but it's risible without being funny.
Dank, drech and dreary deary. Fitting weather for today's visit by Nursey.

Top of the morning! It's quite sunny and mild here now.
Games: We got slaughtered at Fortnite. All the bigger kids showed up and it wasn't fair.
OTTM: Our downstairs sink is leaking when turned on and the shower in my bathroom is still broken. The quickest remedial action at this point appears to me training as a plumber.

Bdt got people or is it just wanting to stay in bed in this weather?
A bit of farcry6 from the Ubisoft subs thing, cheaper than buying the releases on sale if remember to cancel when not using it.

Morning,
This was a bdt free zone.
Managed to get to school and back in the drizzle between the torrential downpours. 4 *'s
Games. GTA stunt Races whilst chatting to my pal.
TV. Squid game.
Gor a bit of a sore head. Might as well have gone fool Shenguin BDT.
Hopefully water, coffee & banana/peanut butter toast will help.

Morning all!
Bulb in the bathroom has gone. I don’t think I’ve ever replaced this one, and have a horrible feeling that we do not have a spare in the house.
TVblog: two episodes of The Orville. I maintain that it is very good, which has come as quite the surprise to me.
Camerablog: last night’s club session was called “lockdown photography”, and even got members to share what they did photo-wise while under lockdown.
It was incredibly boring. I resorted to drinking rum.
Warhermitblog: a metal Space Marine dread bought I acquired isn’t coming apart so that I can paint-strip it. And this, despite it being in the freezer for two days.

Morning
What's all the talk of wet weather? Sunny and warm in God's own county. 21° forecast later. I think you are being punished for previous crimes.
I only did MDT so am OK today. Although the eldest has not gone to school due to cold/cough and high temperature. Oh. Hopefully she just copied Dennis or Minnie from The Beano and faked the temperature with her hot water bottle or such like. The real downside to this is that today is one of the two days a week that the PM is now back in the office and I'm all alone at home. Not today alas.
OTTM, I'm considering telling poorly child that lunchtime chippy tucker is a great remedy for a cold.

They closed the box four years ago? Sometimes it feels a lot long when reading this place/plaice.
How long since they killed of the google lurking area? As winter is here for some is it whisky/ port time of year?

Morning Steven Seagal fans.
Spent most of last evening trying to sort out a technical issue on the Xbox. I failed. Today, I will be victorious.
OTTM: Another pair of sweet cans broke, so I got a Turtle Beach headset as a replacement. They do work.
As you were.

Free guy and black widow are on Disney I think. Add to the backlog of unlatched things and unplaced games.
The tv article on the G mentions they are ‘dong’ a prequel to GoT.

Film reviews with Tuffers Norman:
I watched Godzilla (2014)last night. It was OK. Godzilla looked a bit oddly shaped. As did the Muto's. Would've been better with giant radioactive squid in there too. 4*
Early this week I watched Predator (1987). It is the best. Although mostly believable (based on a true story) the bit near the end is a bit far fetched. Obviously the mud cools his body heat making him hard to spot using the heat vision. But it's dried off after a few minutes. 4*
Tonight I'm watching Predator 2. One of the main characters is named after a young Tuffers. King Willie. Fucking voodoo magic, man. Review to follow.

Not as great as Predator though, obvs.

King Willie is a legend, 'Truly dread man, truly dread'.

I finished watching Midnight Mass last night. It was decent. Very Stephen King-esque. 4*
