Last night I talked to the Scottish contingent of the family that made the mistake of visiting folks south of the border for Halloween and got caught up in the COP26 travel chaos plus storm damaged overhead lines. They were travelling with a small child as well, so lots of fun waiting for hours on platforms and finding out that pub in the station had run out of food. Fortunately they found a cosy Costa coffee where they were able to fortify themselves. When they finally arrived at Waverley there was an announcement that 'this train has been 297 minutes late'. Maybe they should keep quiet about that kind of record.
I've been busy last night doing stuff for the Extra Life charity marathon at the weekend, but I've also been playing the Dreaded Last Metroid. I had some backtracking to do because I'm stupid and managed to get properly lost. After much running around and constant encounters with the local Emmi representative I finally figured out where I had to go, did what I had to do, and am now the proud owner of the mothball.

Mooning But double sausage munching seems a bit greedy, maybe slightly unhealthy, although I could even it out with some nice healthy fried onions. What to do. Is double sausage munching a sex thing? Ass the onions as one of your five a day and plan meals better, could have had black pudding for breakfast for all the sausage. |

My parking ticket appeal has been turned down. *looks in wallet* Would an expired train ticket from 2016 be considered a down payment? How much are parking tickets? Just got back from shopping.
Right, so it's £25 if paid in the first 2 weeks rising to £50 for the next 2. If not paid by then, they send dudes to your gaff for payment.

If you happen to work with a grumpy bearded bloke who posts on here and has a seal for an avatar, I strongly advise you not to fucking open that stinking fucking can. |

It's more stubble at the moment and I don't have a seal as an avatar, but I did have time off last week and I do not like the smell of tined mackerel. So I will not open it. |

I got a ticket for mistakenly driving down a bus lane in Florence back in 2015. To appeal, you had to write a letter to the Mayor of Florence within 30 days of receipt of said letter, and it had to be in Italian. If the Mayor disagreed with you, they doubled the fine. |

From Kent Online:
"A new fine-dining restaurant offering lobster and duck on the menu has received a one-star food hygiene rating."
Oooh Lobster and Duck.

There's still an unpaid ticket for parking in the city centre of Prague from 23 years ago. It wasn't even a particularly scenic parking space, like on top of the Charles Bridge or something. We were just in a hurry to get to a conference and didn't have a clue where it took place other than in Prague. (Though we did have the date and time correct.) So that's where we parked the car.

What would happen if you refused to pay? Surely in the current environment Boris and the boys would stick up for you. |

I drove the wrong way along a motorway sliproad in Spain in 2004. No fines, just 17 years of occasional nightmares.

Cameron maintained Amipal's innocence, the Italians, led by the Mayor of Florence, were insisting, they had the backing of the whole EU, Cameron's membership negotiations failed, Brexit wins the referendum, the rest, as they say, is history. Amipal in a bus lane, the flapping of a butterfly wing. |
