It's been a pretty warm early Autumn. I have not felt any need to put heating on.
I have the window open in the office.
It is noticeable that thanks to Global warming I don't put the heating on nearly as often
Thus my emissions are actually falling.
Has Greta taken this into account?
No, No she has not.

Oh, I remember. You all mostly live above the Watford Gap.
Maybe time to dine on a more battered food and dumplings?

'We don't check this mailbox, so please don't reply to this message'.

Just so you all know, I'm sitting in the study with the window open. And I sat outside without a coat on at lunchtime. #CostaDelSaltdean |

Gameschat: Links Awakening. Got to Catfish Maw. Thats it from me. I'm such a slowpoke, I've only just come out of Key Cavern. Did you get the (new) heart piece in Pothole Field? I did, and I got stuck because there isn't enough space to dash jump back across the gaps, and every time you fall into the holes you respawn on the wrong side. Who the hell designed this?? I googled " Link's Awakening stuck in Pothole Field" and found a lot of other people who were stuck and asking how to get out of this situation. Eventually I took the advice of another person, may the gods bless them, who suggested bombing the bushes on the opposite side of the holes and not touching the direction stick whilst dashing and spamming the jump. After two tries it worked. Never have I saved so fast. I've only just done the Dream Shrine and am now able to perform in front of the egg. Adding one instrument at a time has always been one of my favourite parts of this game, and the new animation is beautiful. Now off to do the Colour Dungeon. I was wondering whether I needed to write down the directions and then remembered that I can just take a screen shot. Technology, eh? I don't think I'll be catching up with you soon. I also watched a review by blue muppet YouTuber Arlo of Link's Awakening, who usually brings up good points but in this instance completely missed the mark (literally). He was complaining about the remake being too faithful to the graphically limited original and as an example cited a structure with a hole near Tal Tal Heights, thinking that the original designers had put it there for strictly ornamental purposes. Cue the comment section pointing out that this structure is and always has been the location for one of the Secret Seashells. Oops. Guess he's been missing that one for twenty-six years... |

25 waiting down to 2 waiting ...
"The office is now closed. Please call within office hours which are 9.30 to 5 pm." Two and a half hours should have been enough for 3 5-10 minute calls. Nope; ONE call, and that apron? Now showing that it will be delivered between 4.30 and 8.30; I'm laying odds the van broke down...

Thank you. Thank you. I love you all.
Oh, I think I'm going to cry.
I'd like to thank my mother and my Preferred Mammal and the rest of my family who have supported me in my gibberish through difficult times and who never stopped believing in me and my first class gibberish.
Thank you. Thank you.

I read Twitter*, following interesting** people, trying to avoid all the shit, which is impossible and then you see this from the Twitter:
"Push notifications
Never miss what’s happening on Twitter by enabling push notifications".
I mean, really, even after all the crap that's been thrown at them, I despair sometimes and then I then I listen to something melancholy:
*yes I know
**to me

sitting in the study with the window open. A room full of semi-broken Amigas does not a study make. I'll study you in a minute. There are only two in there. Three if you count the AmigaOne*. The rest of them are up in the loft, gradually melting their way down thanks to very old, leaky batteries. *many would not. |
