1 feel awful, courtesy of a random appearance of carers. They are appearing at strange hrs. as their company has had to accept random new clients ... 7.15 a.m. wake up for their convenience otherwise I would not see one until 11-ish, I'm happy - otherwise I would have a high chance of 2 litre night bag explosion (it's happened before) 11.15 a.m. - lunch 3.30 p.m - tea 7 p.m. - good night This smug git looks like he's not got a cathy... |

Preferred Mammal talked me into going to look at a new build development yesterday.
Long story short, looks like we’re moving soon.

I started another episode of Succession last night, but fell asleep a few minutes into it. They were all being snarky to each other and discussing a business deal, only in this episode they were on a yacht, for some reason

Top 10 most stressful life stuff:
The death of a family member or friend
Financial challenges
Issues at work
Change in a relationship
Divorce
Exams & studying
Buying a house
Reading/watching the news
Having a child
Starting a new job
Making an assumption* about the Pref.Mam. and me and the fact I don't watch/read the news only one of these should affect me, so Yay!?

Once you start on that retro vinyl journey your soon be questioning whether food tastes better cooked in a retro fashion. a.k.a s ans oven; the Tids method I'll pretend I didn't see that. |

I've got two old pairs of Bench combat shorts I used to wear on holiday. They had zips on the side hand pockets and were perfect as you didn't lose your phone or whatever you had in them. Harder to pickpocket etc.
They both though ripped across the same weak point and so can't wear.
Trying to replace them but the only shorts I can find with zip pockets aren't the hand pocket ones. Or are fucking awful.
Contemplating unstiching the zips and paying someone to sew them into a different pair of shorts. A pair I own or will buy for the occasion. Will need to measure the zip.
In work tomorrow and really can't be arsed. Will be trying to avoid Succession spoilers all day as well.

Succession chat: none of it is real. The young lanky lad is imagining the whole thing. Calling it now
I've not finished S2 yet, so no idea if that's already been revealed

I have a couple of pairs of Brasher walking trousers and they have lots of zipped pockets. |

One of the most stressful things I've ever done is doing 'bunk' from the cops. Hiding in a phone box and then doing a 2 mile cross-country run was, I consider, quite stressful.

If you include long term surely bringing up a child would be on there. |

I discovered last night that InBev have reduced the ABV of Leffe Blonde to 6.0% from 6.6%.
The new beer is not nearly as nice. It's thinner and a bit sweeter. And Leffe was already sweet enough.
There is noticeably less depth to the flavour.
It's more like a strong PGL than an Abbey beer now.
Leffe was the first strong Belgian Abbey ale I ever had and has always been one of my favourites.
I find the change both deeply disappointing and highly stressful.

No, but I'm keeping it vague for a reason. To add a pleasingly dramatic air of mystery? Or you can't remember the rest of the plot of The Fugitive. |

whatalarkI'd looked at ones from Decathlon that were ideal - except they had decided to make them two colours. Fuck that. Will look for more walking ones as probably the best chance. Ta.
