Don't think Rolling has posted today, so it must be him. Classic Rolling Sorry, still alive, but falling off a Christmas tree to your death was recently voted one of the top 5 things to do in Kirkcaldy. It was only 4 metres as well. I mean that guy out of Jam had to try much harder.

Thanks for the kind thoughts, one and all... Without games and the kindness of strangers, the travails of the last 5 years would have been impossible to bear. This week's litany of woes is a rather compressed version of my life. I have become Victor Meldrew... it now feels like a miracle if someone turns up on time and does what they have committed to do.
It's not just the NHS. Even though I am prepared to pay £25 an hour = £50 for a 2 hour cleaning stint, I expect a well-paid cleaner to turn up on time and work for that time AND, unbelievably, do a better job than a disabled, housebound old git who can't bend down past a certain point. The last one turned up late by 10-15 minutes, spent 5 minutes explaining why they were late and fossicked around making loads of noise, before pitching up in front of me to say she had to go early to get to her next job on time... Thus effectively increasing her pay to £33 an hour. All this to do a worse job than I do.
Or there's the cleaner who turned up and asked me why I was getting rid of my current cleaner as the house was cleaner than her own. I hadn't had a cleaner for 6 months then and was and am aware of all the corners I can't get to... And the one who insisted I get Windolene Emulsion Original Cream and then knocked over the cream all over the most expensive burgundy deep pile carpet in the house... or the one who turned up with her husband to 'help' her... Or the one who said they couldn't use my steam cleaner and then broke the one she said she knew how to us after I'd bought her the one she specified...
Or the one who in one spectacularly destructive visit broke 2 mugs, a plate, my dead mother's picture and finished it off by pulling the bedroom curtains off their fixings, ripping holes in the plaster, the curtains and breaking the curtain track... and then asked for her money...
I AM Victor!

what can I say? You have terrible taste in curtains and crockery. Oh and carpets. I was just dropping a subtle hint (and the cups obviously).
I'm teasing. The crockery was ok.

I'm constantly refreshing in the hope of seeing crank's GTA V playtime. It's the only stat I reckon will make me feel less bad about my time on FFXIV.

Chumbles has put literally years of play time into Civilization IV with the Fall from Heaven 1.0g mod. You can see from his posts what that has done to him.

Thank you, Crank.
Breaking the 50 day mark is quite the achievement, you should be... Er, proud?

Sub Nautica's free just now through the Epic Game launcher. So Fortniters already have access.
You'll all be relieved to learn that I successfully "borrowed" an oil cart in rdr2 this evening. All I needed was a plan. You'll hopefully be able to sleep soundly tonight.

Is Subnautica any good? Noticed it was free yesterday when playing Fortnite. Is it basically No Man's Sky but underwater?

Thank you, Crank. Breaking the 50 day mark is quite the achievement, you should be... Er, proud? That's probably over about 3yrs. But yes I should seek help. Ive not even completed the story mode as I keep getting distracted by online.

Chumbles draws a lot of water in this town. You don't draw shit, Shenguin. Now we got a nice, quiet little beach community here, and I aim to keep it nice and quiet. So let me make something plain. I don't like you sucking around, bothering our citizens, Shenguin. I don't like your jerk-off name. I don't like your jerk-off face. I don't like your jerk-off behaviour, and I don't like you, jerk-off. Do I make myself clear?
