Chatterbox Thursday

In the end I did go to Morrisons.

To try and wean me off my wensleydale addiction I bought Cheshire cheese instead. Oh.

The auto-correct on my phone tried to substitute the word 'full' for 'cunt'.

"Sounds like you'll have your hands cunt as it is", is really not the message I wished to send to my Mother.


Harrumph.

Fried rice with shredded rotisserie chicken and a load of chillies for lunch. Delicious, but repeating significantly. 

Basically just counting the hours until such time kids are collected, fed and groomed so I can have a game of Ragnarok.  Didn't get a go last night as I'd been volunteered to assemble a pair of flat pack king sized beds for my wife's recently divorced (and as it turns out, spectacularly ungrateful) friend.

I have a ready meal in the fridge and a selection pack of three bottles of Chimay getting to cellar temperature to enjoy later whilst I'm twatting dwarves

Muffrat there, getting us all put on a watch list by talking about grooming kids

You don't need king sized beds if you've just got divorced. Certainly not two. It suggests the triumph of hope over experience.
Were you asked to try them out?

Rouge, banc et bleu Chimay? The white is my favourite Chimay.

I was not asked to try them out. After three hours of not inconsiderable fucking about though, I was asked to hoover up after myself, and to take all the assorted packaging, plastic and polystyrene away with me. I'm not sure if she was more surprised by my polite but firm refusal, or the steely look I gave her inviting her to go fuck herself

I’m curious about these king sized beds. Divorced but still living together with one king sized bed each? Or does she have a summer bed and a winter bed?

My wife is a girl guide leader, and bed lady is an assistant. About a month ago wife had to cry off a guide meeting, and bed lady threw her back out trying to get some equipment out of a loft at the church hall by herself. Wife feels guilty, volunteered my services to help assemble some furniture for her as her back is still fucked, she has to be out of her rented flat by weekend so here we are.

I'm not at home so can't check, but I think it's the triple blue, the white, and one's something like a 'Strong Blonde'. My dad got them for Xmas last year but never drank them as he was intimidated by the alcohol strengths (I have no such fear)

Re: the two beds - one is for her daughter, who is only twelve, but has the height, physique and elaborate orthodontic trappings of Richard Kiel in The Spy Who Loved Me. I'm 6'0 and nearly fifteen stone and I wouldn't back myself in a fistfight with her

You are a big man, but you are in bad shape, with her it's a full time job.

The formatting on that is well bollocksed up. Serves me right for trying to be clever.

Dear god, a collection of the broken down, the absolutely exhausted, the ones whose club managers won't play them because they have no confidence in them... and one who has hardly played this season: "I've dreamt of the call to represent my country at the World Cup since I can remember. I can’t thank the England manager and staff enough for their faith in me, and I'll do everything I can to repay that in Qatar." he can't possibly be match fit.

"Gareth Southgate has remained loyal to the players who led England to the Euro 2020 final 17 months ago, with 19 of the 26-man squad retained for the trip to Qatar. According to the PA news agency, the retention rate of 73% is the highest for any England side between major tournaments. The average age of Southgate's squad has risen to 27 - from just over 25 last summer - which is the oldest since Fabio Capello's selection for the 2010 World Cup."

Reminiscent of Sushi selecting his cabinet ...
