Why do I always have the feeling that everybody's doing something better than me on Saturday afternoons? — Jerry

Well I'm off to Stoke today. I know no one can possibly be having a better time than me.

I'm also off to Stoke. I bet I'm in better company than Sheep is, so probably will have a better time.

I have a dental abscess. At least I'm not in Stoke today with Sheep & Shenguin.

We're off to Edinburgh overnight. The child is excited. I'm trying to pitch food ideas that aren't pizza express.
Like ANYTHING that isn't pizza express. I like their pizzas. I'm just sick of going there as it's a safe bet for da yoot.
Fillums. Mamma Mia 2. Zut alors. It was on. I sort of paid attention, I tapped my feet. Not as good as the first one.
Games. Deliveries in GTA. Lots of money being made this week. Be on Sun/Mon night as much as possible. I'm hoping for more RDR2 bonuses next week.

I'm also heading to Edinburgh, but just for Open Uni tutorial at probably the most awkward location they could find. It's a half hour walk from Slateford train station. The vestigial one I have to double back to that gets a train every hour.
Still, I'll get to swap at Haymarket on the way back and go to the beer shop.

Good morning all,
I'm seriously unhappy about being up at this time on a Saturday, woken up by a cold caller at 9am.
In other news, anybody else have a strong urge to punch Nick Clegg in the face (more so than usual)? I saw him crossing the road in Putney a while ago, which now feels like a missed opportunity.

Are we all going places in pairs today? Anyone want to go to M&S for lunch with me?

Stoke and Slateford?. Now I know what Jerry was talking about (horrendous bass slap). I've never had the opportunity of punching Nick Clegg but I did have a phase of regularly encountering Willie Rennie, leader of the Scottish LibDems, in random places: on top of a mountain; in a service station toilet on the M6; and jogging past my living room window. There are only about 25 Scottish Lib Dems so that's a hell of a coincidence.

I was woken up at 6.20 am by some drunk teenagers shouting for 'Nanny Viv' in the street. 'I'm sure she lives around here somewhere?'. No, no, she doesn't but I do and I've got an abscess and a particular set of skills etc... (continues for 97 pages).

I'll get to swap at Haymarket on the way back and go to watch Cranks child while he and Mrs Crank go out for a drink. Kind offer pyjakson. Make sure you already know who your favourite couple are in strictly and if you prefer shimmer or shine. I'd swot up on the greatest showman lyrics as well. You probably won't have time for your open uni stuff tbh.

The postie has just been. Ironically I've had a letter from my dentist reminding me that I'm due a check up. What a world.

Cold callers and drunken teenagers who wake you up can rot in the ninth circle of hell. Nick Clegg, too, while we are at it.
Today I'm washing some washing and folding some towels whilst waiting for Royal Mail to deliver my copy of Dark Souls. "Sooo... you were expecting this item in May and it was delayed... and we should have delivered it yesterday... what's another day in the grand scheme of things, eh?"
Brexit now.
Why don't you ask me this question tomorrow when I'm actually going to the pub?

Hey chief! How about something like this as a header? 'The ultimate in chatting terror', 'The Box' etc... For halloween? or, use the original Alien poster along the lines of '..in the box, no-one can hear your comments'. I think I may have had too many painkillers.* * I absolutely have not.

In gaming news, I'm determined to finish Octopus Sealslapper before getting completely befuddled by the control scheme in Dark Souls. I'm making good progress, currently on Alfyn's third chapter. My highlight yesterday was stealing a weapon that couldn't be obtained by other means with only a 15% chance of success. Then I found that I already had a better one. Yes, I'm stealing this man's prized possession just to put it on my pile of unused weapons. But to be honest he was a bit of a dick about it.

The 11.15.train was cancelled. Then it was uncancelled. I didn't have time to grab a coffee. Every other passenger has one. Even the children probably. #1stworldproblems

The sickness bug hit the family over the week. Three children at once then me then my partner.
Im buying blood bowl 2 legendary edition. Less than a tenner all dlc and more when one DLC race is nearly £6, it just makes financial sense.

I have a sore throat, and am drinking whisky. I am also about to make a batch of chocolate cupcakes as the grandkids are due this afternoon. Spread the germs love.

Mamma Mia 2. Zut alors. It was on. I sort of paid attention, I tapped my feet. Not as good as the first one. Have a word with yourself. Hello all. Today we've taken the boy on his first trip on the train, courtesy of the wonder that is Southern Rail. From Brighton to Lewes, and spot of coffee and cake, then back on the train. Later, I am due up in that there London for a photo thing. Not only is there a rail replacement service on, but there's also some EU march thing too. I may never get home.

I wish Danky had made his offer of M&S lunch earlier; I'd have let Scubar replace me in Stoke.

Might put it on the list after RDR2 obviously. I played the timed demo and really enjoyed it, but it did feel like it may get a little repetitive.

Ugh, these kids are the worst. Hopefully a stranger offers to take them to get sweets soon.
