And you are only realising that now? Denial, anger, bargaining and depression all took longer than they should have. Where's the guilt? |

Hola!
Still blazing hot, and Mrs gong has just had a baby scan pic from her youngest.... Another girl. That's 8 on the trot. Should have had a bet... Feel even less like coming home now. Buy shares in anything pink and glittery.
Happy anniversary you lot of reprobates.

Beef salad sarnie with tangy cheese Doritos. Got the office to myself this afternoon so I am letting the beefy smelling farts rip.

63,072,000 seconds. That's our lives ticking away. Tick Tock. Here's a kitten.  |

I think we should all do a flash mob on amipal's shed tonight. Really get the hurt out and possibly play some old video games. I've already told you, it's not my shed. Plus it's not wired either. |

Happy fucking birthday everyone. Two years of shit puns and impenetrable abyssal-bound hoots about ganes.

All of it? Are you about to die? What's really depressing is you probably still have several decades of your life left, and you won't use this epiphany to turn it around. You'll carry on wasting it. |

4046 posts, 5 ahead of Baby. That's my position strengthened for a while at least. I have to go now and spend some time fucking up the economy by doing some actual work.

63,072,000 seconds. That's our lives ticking away. Tick Tock. Life ticks away at the same rate whether I waste it or do something worthwhile. Wasting it is easier and less effort. I'm ok with that. OTTM: Royal Mail have just texted me to say they've delivered The Book of Dust to me. |

Do you mean The Secret Commonwealth or La Belle Sauvage or both?

Amazon delivered The Secret Commonwealth to me yesterday.
Initial impression: Surprising bulky package.
Second impression: Surprisingly thick book. If I want to read tween lit I want it to be easily digestible not fucking War, like, and, like Peace.

The Secret Commonwealth. I used Hive, because Jeff can fucking do one. Except when he's significantly cheaper or more convenient, and then he can still have my money.

OTTM: I got into one of my offices about half an hour ago, and found a cold cup of coffee that had been there since yesterday lunch time. I drank it, because I have no self-respect.

Sweet multi-office boasting.
By “office” I assume you mean “Costa coffee with poor wifi security”

I had to buy from Jeff so I could give the savings to Brett Anderson. True story. The talk last night was through an actual independent bookshop. I did not visit the actual shop. All my transactions with them were online. I would have visited the shop, but by the time I got to Bath t was closed. |

He has a couple of broom cupboards in academy schools. At least one of them is underground and close enough to the toilets that he has to go to Sainsbury to actually pee. |

Shenguin refers to the stalls in the toilets as "his offices". I hope it actually was coffee.

Still no news about my bloody tax rebate. HMRC have not even worked out my correct income tax for 2018/19, which according to their website takes place between June and October. The fuckers. I bet it's because of Brexit, somehow. Where's the support in the liberal media for ensuring True Brit heroes like me receive our tax rebates?
