As if the Five Guys drinks ordering scenario wasn't enough of a mindfuck, a couple of weeks ago they let me have my bottle of water for free in Pret. I asked why but I was not given a satisfactory answer. What the hell is going on in the fast food drinks economy? When I visited the U.S. in the mid 90s (before free refills were regular in the UK) I could not work out why they sold drinks of different sizes with unlimited refills. It seemed and seems odd to me that anyone would buy a larger size if you can refill a small drink multiple times.

Just watched the last Avengers film, it was actually pretty rubbish. I've got it, but not watched it... I rather suspect it is rather like that meal at the end of the week when you look in the fridge, grab all the left overs and chuck them all together Blue = tasty and edible White = mediocre, but edible Red = nasty, and probably poisonous Like our climate, over time the expected distribution of results from using one's digestive system as a dustbin is adjusted further towards the red end by experience, frequent stomach upsets and occasionally gastroenteritis... ...this approach is not recommended for either food management or plotting. The final chapters of LotR, Babylon 5 Season 5 etc suffer from this. In the Avengers case (and the X-Men) it's compounded by a similar curve migration where the action/sfx has to be more extreme than the previous film/episode. It's so very very rare to get a tasty meal out of the gallimaufry of left-overs from the fridge that doesn't poison you. And I cannot remember a final film in a sequence that surpasses the first.

My Pork went down a treat.
I had to have a two hour afternoon nap as I'd eaten so much. Need to open a window though after all that cabbage and cauliflower...
Then I watched footy, athletics and antiques roadshow.
Up at 4.45 for the train. Another glass of red will ease the pain.
Cool story Tuffers, rich and compelling.
No games, but ps classic mini packed in suitcase for more getting harassed by Persona characters for my HOT* body.

Lurk McLurkface - "Curried faggots were pretty good recently. You're correct about the fillums tho'." - Add Tuffers cabbage and you have a weapons grade fart! It would be developed by Polish (Gołąbki) and Indian scientists (the Curry addition)...
