I've only just become aware of the CO 2 shortage: www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-44613652It's affecting the beer supply! During the hottest days of the year so far! During the Football World Cup! Man/woman the panic stations! |

I can assure you that I drink traditionally produced ale poured straight from the barrel, with none of your degenerate CO2 added.
Quiet in here today. I ate a cheese sandwich earlier.
I assume most people are dead or dying from heat exhaustion. Lucky bastards, I am merely wretchedly hot and don't appear to be actually dying.

Cheese sandwich.
We have amazing air con in the office, I am actually a little cold if anything. I will get all hot and sweaty on the train back though*

*Please do not make the cheap comment I expect you will make anyway with regards to this sentence.

Not just lying under the tap collecting drips. I know it didn't work out well for you lat time, but it is worth trying again. |

Can you get Malaria if a BFF Shelob type bites you?
I had to remove a BFF Shelob last night after it ran across the lounge.
I do not think it bit me, but it was not a risk worth taking so I had to have 3 delicious refreshing G&Ts.
I have been quiet as I am testing for Malaria.

That spider could have been enlarged by radioactivity. Check for the ability to shoot webs. |

Best Friends Forever shouldn't bite each other. Except in consenting circumstances with an agreed safe word.

A relative of mine has just sent me a selfie of him with Garth Marenghi. Apparently his other half is Scottish, so he really knew what he was talking about when he wrote that speech about the Scots in the show. I am pretty furious, as I have never met anyone as famous as that.

I'm on my second pint of Ringwood Forty-niner at £1.99 a pint thanks to the rabid brexiteer Tim Martin. |

Christ I've not had a battered burger in years. A king rib either. I need to petition the artisan chippy round my way to start doing king ribs. Surely somebody must be reforming pulled pork into a king rib form?

A hipster king rib sounds quite nice actually.
Top 5 foods from my childhood I'd like an artisanal take on:
Ice poles
Fish fingers
Pizza crunch
Kwenchy cups
Cheese strings
I wouldn't be surprised if some of those exist already.

You get panko fish fingers in our posh chippy. Proper fish inside.

I very nearly caused a complete breakdown in the mental state of a Royal Mail employee whose job is it to assist people using the self service machine in the Post Office.
I purchased Special Next Delivery and was instructed by the machine to place a bar code on the envelope. There was a collection of these silver labels containing 3 bar codes each on the side so I took one, pealed off a bar code and stuck this on the envelope. I then carried on the on screen prompts until the screen informs me that an employee will soon be there to assist (presumably to take the post away).
A plump bespectacled mid 40's lady duly arrived and saw the single bar code on the envelope and me holding the remaining label in my hand limply and duly snorted, "No, the whole lot goes on" and pressed a few buttons to produce a receipt which I took. I then pointed out that this was incorrect and either the single bar code goes on or Royal Mail needs to change the on screen prompts to state the whole label needs to be peeled and stuck on. At this point she simply stared looking a bit lost before finally she opened her mouth to speak at which point I seized the initiative and told her I am in a hurry to attend a business meeting and plopped the label in her hand and explained she can sort this mess out and left.
The post is probably in the bin, but totally worth it.

In this sort of weather it’s vital to maintain your fluid intake. As someone who has been in the same room as a medical professional on more than one occasion I would have no hesitation in recommending Badger “Fursty Ferret”.
It’s too bastard hot and everything is about football. Bring on the thunderstorms and inevitable 1-0 tedious and demoralising crash out to a far better team who are playing with 10 men.

Ive just been stuck in a meeting room for nearly 2 hours, no air con and the sun beating down.
I’m ready to kill most of my coworkers. Especially the ones who did have “any last questions?”
