Joint lofts, try setting a grow up in theirs and call in police? Are you allowed a disabled space chumbles? Or can someone cut break lines for you? Apparently tyres are too loud to pop. The attached semi are nice people, it's the unattached side that are the piss-takers. I don't mind the guy parking for an hour or so, but when they park on a Friday night and don't move until Monday... I've spoken about this, but after a short time they are back at it again. Bastards. |

I Hate Britain. I want to Bash it, not Back it. The news is so parochial. I listen to the World Service for news, as it is broader. But in all honesty, all reporting is coloured by the viewpoint of the channel through which you hear / read / see it. The Independent thinks BloJo is history... It’s true, it’s true. But all the other news being headlined seems a bit petty in comparison. I don’t know. Maybe it’s not as big a deal as I think it is. |

I suppose we should be grateful that Johnson hasn't gone full enough Putin to invade France to get back the Angevin Empire. Probably too pished to bother.

Brake lines are easy, however, that's a nasty thing to do. Shame on you stxdpd. What you could do is make a hole in the fuel line and...
Nah, I'm not going there.

Lunch: cheese sarnie.
Games: none.
OTTM: last night, on our way home, at about midnight, Mammal Who Tolerates Me and I bumped into nextdoor neighbour (who is a friend as well) who was out looking to direct the air ambulance people to his house. His fiancé has died.
He was with her when she went, and it wasn't possible to revive her. We went to theirs and stayed until about 5am to help deal with ambulance, police and undertaker, and to share some whisky.
She's had lung problems for ages, and has spent a lot of time over the past couple of years self-isolating. She was a few years older then me, in her late forties.
The whisky was Glenmorangie, which is fine, whatevs, too smooth, so I told him to him to get something better in, maybe a peaty island single malt, if he wants me to deal with a dead fiancé again, the cheap cunt.

Shenguin that's a terrible thing to happen, luckily they had someone who was there to be comforting and supportive and also someone else to drink the Scotch.

Rough news* Here's a place for your next holiday, Shenguin to give you something else to think about ... Tough for your neighbour, but at least he got to kick you out at 5 a.m. |

Shenguin deepest condolences to your friend from one bereaved to another. I don't need to tell you that it was good that you and your Mammal That Tolerates You were there for him. We all know it's inevitable that we'll lose our parents at one point, and when it happens it's so much worse than we'd imagined. But losing our partner is something we don't even want to contemplate because it's so awful that it doesn't bear thinking about.
