Yes, the clocks have changed. But the youngest member of our household was unaware of this, or at least his stomach was.
And so I am awake, and up.
And the rain is lashing against our dwelling.

All of the above but change his to her. Tbf she slept till 6.10 which obviously was 7.10 in old money so I can't complain. Morning. Making more chicken broth this morning, but currently listening to the child's plan for Happy Isle in Animal Crossing. The new update has re-sparked her interest. So I suppose I'll be ponying up 25 sovs for the dlc. I hope the rain goes off a bit later as she is supposed to be going guising/galoshans. |

Morning Tids.
Forza 5 had an update last night of 25 GB hopefully no more that size before the 9th.

I am now charging a flat battery. 'Big Dave' the battery charger is on the case. I'm knackered now, it was a hefty lump to yank out.
I'll probably get another parking ticket. *sobs*

Good luck Tids.
As two of my neighbours' kids have ADHD I've given their parents each a tub of treats to dish out. I've seen one of them go ballistic and it's not much fun for parents or child. For the shakedown merchants the machine gun turret is loaded.

Race for the earlier morning, was it chumbles or crank?
Rain now stopping but no let up with the wind, hope those north or on the coast didn’t have a rough night.

15/25 www.theguardian.com/culture/2021/oct/31/the-guardians-hideously-horrible-halloween-culture-quizTerrible weather here. Did I use the extra hour to get more sleep? No, I used it to play Metereroids. A few stupid deaths, mostly Emmi-induced, though I kicked them in the face more than once which didn't always translate to getting away, but I'm pleased with the progress and eager to move on. Failed to investigate a part of the map which was then closed off, but some backtracking is now in order so hopefully I can get there on a different path. |

Morning Tids. Forza 5 had an update last night of 25 GB hopefully no more that size before the 9th. 16.9GB on the Xbox. Thanks for letting me know.
OTTM: Battery still charging, no traffic wardens dead yet. Subject to change.
FYI. My brother's still in Hospital. No change in his condition.
As you were.

Looks like it'll be a cinema week coming up, we're going to see James Bond on Tuesday and will probably go and see Last Night in Soho on my own on Thursday.

12/25 should've done better
Went for Sunday lunch in a village called Burpham. Had a stroll round the cemetery afterwards, as you do, and the first grave stone we read was for a Robert Belcher. How we laughed

Mr Chumbles, a version of night watch was on iPlayer recently. Loosely based from the first episode I saw.
Massive downpour meaning an extra pint on the pub, thank you weather god's. Farcrying and shooting lots of people randomly.

Farcrying and shooting lots of people randomly. Thanks; it's still there and is for another 8 months: "Loosely based" is right, and it's more Cyberpunk than Ankh-Morpork, but if you park your preconceived ideas, it has a quality of its own. I like Angua von Überwald (below)... www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p09jgnbv/the-watch-series-1-1-a-near-vimes-experience |

Sent out a bunch of electronic Halloween cards but won't be setting up my Halloween decorations for the first time ever because the weather is too wet & windy to put the bowl of treats outside (which is what I did last year) and I don't trust the little Covid ridden snotbags to observe social distancing.
This sucks. Maybe I'll reconsider later.
On the other hand that means that I can wear my earphones to play more Dread.
Sunday gaming stream tonight will be the Resident Evil 3 remake, so that should be fun. Never say Nemesis.

Regarding psychoville not sure I have told this story.
Due to a back injury I was getting maybe an hour sleep here and there and was on three types of painkiller one of them Tramadol.
I was laid on the sofa about 2 in the morning watching the episode with the baby.
I was petrified and because of my back couldnt move to turn it off.
