Predator is not mucky. I'm not even sure why it is 18 rather than 15 rated these days.
If I wanted proper muck I would buy it from Jeff. He has the kind eyes of a man who has sold many horrors to people at a very reasonable price.

With the aid of Nurofen Express I was able to stumble to the toilet. Is this a glimpse of what life is like for the over 40's? Is this a game thing? If not, I need explicit details. I have an interest in this sphere of forensic medicine.

The big problem is the first generation of films from the 1990s made with a lot of digital effects or filmed digitally. Some of them look pretty poor now and it is difficult to improve them as there is nothing to improve,

Why hasn’t Crank got a hard wired smoke detector? Does he live in a listed building?
My building control spidey senses are tingling at the thought.

TV - Mandalorian. Adorbs. Best Star Trek since TLJ? Also His Dark Materials. Sorry for getting a bit worked up about it last night, we all need to take a leaf from Shenguine's calm and collected book.
Train - got out of bed late and barely made the train, just managing to slink panther like like a panther into the corner shop and buy a can of rod hull, before slinking panther like onto my train.
Games - Pkemnans, lovely stuff. Absolutely smashing some poor little kid's Sqaknuts* in a single move never gets old.

I've just had the Labour dudes around here canvassing. That's my lunch sorted.
OTTM: They interrupted my ordering of Nathan Barley from CEX. The shits.

Morning Everyone. I'm back to dying again.
It's probably time for the bunting and balloons.

Why did you not already own Predator on dvd? Asking the questions that NEED to be answered. Frankly anyone who does not own a copy of Predator on a minimum of two formats is sick in the head.

With the aid of Nurofen Express I was able to stumble to the toilet. Is this a glimpse of what life is like for the over 40's? I pulled a muscle in my shoulder blade by stretching this morning, and now every moment I live is agony. Is that the sort of example you were after? Incidentally, I'm two years away from forty.

My smoke detectors are mains wired and still require batteries and those batteries still require changing at 4am every damn time they go flat. I probably* have the largest stockpile of 9V batteries ever known.
*Definitely don't.

I made a sandwich consisting of a slice of roast beef with a generous helping of mayonnaise and then with a bit of sliced red onion added. This is now the Babyfark classic. RIP cheese sandwich, it had a good run.

Tesco's own brand didn't touch the sides so I picked up the Nurofen this morning, it cost about 8 times more but does actually offer some relief from the pain. The Tesco ones were rubbish.

Train on time. Spare seats. Lovely and warm. Erm, Nationalise Now! But what about coffee? Did you get coffee? Mornin' pre-made and ready, Try a Russell Hobbs coffee maker, model: 20680 - 1.25 litre black/silver you can set it up the night before on auto and have fresh coffee in the morning ready and waiting for you at your chosen time. Amazon Prime have them for around £30 my mobile is still demised, having to rely on my watch for communicating, I may have a new phone by Jan?! Did you eat your Brexit this morning, a nice bowl of Scots porridge oats for instance to warm you up!

Morning all. I had a terrible night's sleep courtesy of worrying about work. TVblog - that Mars series on Netflix. Okayish science-future drama interspersed with real-life scientist/politician/writer/visionary/billionaire chat. It's alright. 4* OTTM - I was able to escape from Escape to the Chateau by mounting my prints for this week's "Viewpoint" print competition. An hour well spent. Saw the Mars series, agreeable viewing, I've also been watching Grimm from the beginning, a bit mad in places but not terrible.
