I am an accountant. Budgets are my equivalent to Xmas. More expensive than hoped and full of turkeys. The only thing duller than budgets is our budget briefing. I just want to know if beer is going to stay at 5.50 a pint or not. I'm currently drinking a pint of Atilla (7.5%) at £1.99 a pint. God bless you Tim Martin. The Brexit supporting cnut. |

Well if you will keep going to overpriced pubs the cost of a pint is very likely to rise. My advice is go to Brierly Hill/Cradley. The bitter at the Bull and Bladder is about £2.40 a pint and delicious. At £3.10 a pint saving you will be in profit on a £75 return flight from Scotland and a £10 return to Cradley Heath station after 27 1/2 pints. So by mid afternoon. That could be a game changer for me, depending what Phil and the Treasury lads come up with this afternoon. Either way, you ought to change your job title to accountant/life coach. |

Nevermind, I looked myself. No spyro or crash bandicoot, I'm not surprised but they were pretty big games for the system. Resident Evil though, so Sheep2 will have ordered one already. I still have a working PS and am still working to get gold on the unlocked tracks in Wipeout 2097, though I think it's about 18 months since I last put myself through that particular humiliation. #gameschat |

The fajita bonus is that as i was making them last night Mrs Crank started feeling rotten and didn't want fajitas. So there are left over fajitas for my dinner tonight.

RollingEscargotPS4 remote play. Doesn't need a super fast lappy. I'm using a 9yr old MacBook. I wouldn't play twitch shooters but if your router is ok it's doable. It's only 720p though unless you have a PS4 pro. Yes I've tried this and it works. The basic issue was that I was too lazy to get up off the sofa to find a cable for the controller, so I just bought a new game instead. |

No and not going to.
I already have two working copies of RE Director's cut.
If it had Wipeout 2097 on it I would be tempted. Some bastard stole my Wipeout 2097 and got better at it than I am.
Also 2097 is the only Wipeout version that has not been released on PS3 or PS4

Genuinely astonished you can still get a scoop for under 2 pounds in this day and age. I must take a look in the Dundee spoons next time I am there. |

As long as Hammond doesn't make any changes to savings, tax or pensions it should not interfere with my workload.

Don’t start the cinematic horse riding thing and go to make yourself a cup of tea. You can still be attacked by bandits and animals.

Brilliant. I had something that would have been almost guaranteed to be published by Privaye Eye once, I really wish I’d sent it in but it would have been a guaranteed sacking. Although given what’s happened to the company since, I don’t think I could do any more damage to their reputation. |

Bear in mind that we already have minimum unit pricing up here. Fortunately, the fuckers forgot about the paint-thinner section of B and Q.
