Free burger Wednesday at work. Except the two hour commute cost me more in petrol than my regular lunch, the fries were not free, and I paid for a mate's fries (because I am the bestest friend). Plus it was charity box day which cost me another £2. I feel a couple of beers tonight coming on.
Ganes: None
TV: HDM - enjoyed it, and dayum if Serafina Pekkala isn't the finest of fine. Ruth Wilson still tops though.
OTTM: Do NOT vote Tory tomorrow. Do NOT vote Brexit or whatever Farage's party are calling themselves tomorrow. Vote Labour or Lib Dem. Unless you're Sheep or me in which case vote as advised then cry about Andrew Mitchell's 24k safety net. Fucking white middle class middle aged pricks everywhere.

I think he mistook it for the Xbox and sent some of his 'intimate, flavourful' messages to JBGrenouille he now regrets |

There's a decent chance it will a hung parliament and the circus which just keep going and on and on.

The one positive is that Johnson looks absolutely fucked. Hopefully it’s doing him some lasting physical harm.

Technically I live in Aldridge-Brownhills. It's very slightly less safe than Sutton Coldfield. Very slightly.
My mp is Wendy Morton. I have not heard of her doing a single thing in parliament.
To get to work I travel out of Aldridge_Brownhills, into Sutton Coldfield, out of Sutton Coldfield, into Lichfield.
It is a hefy trek. The whole distance is maybe 4-500 metres.

I’m picturing Sheep as a modern day Kant, with punctilious habits you can set your watch by.
I’m sorry, I think I mistyped a bit of that.

My Raspberry PI syncs stuff from my Seedbox and then I stream that to my telly.
I've managed to stop myself buying a 4. Probably as I spent 20x the amount on a laptop.

Hi!
As a former boy scout, my motto is 'Be Prepared'.
So, anyway, what time can we start drinking and crying tomorrow? I'm planning on starting about 6pm. Maybe 5 if I can perform stealth mode. Copious amounts of beer, a nice red wine, and maybe a whisky should help numb the pain a bit.

My recommendation is Taylors LBV Port.
Pitt The Younger was a big fan of Port, a 3 bottle man.
I wouldn't necessarily recommend that on a school night.
Though Pitt did manage to successfully run a major European war, so what do I know

I love Port. Too much.
It is best described as 'Red wine with sleeping tablets in it'.
And Taylors is a good un.
Maybe with some Boursin on a cracker or three.

Port glasses are shit though aren't they? One gulp and you need to re-fill. I trust the chatterbox way is to simply use a wine glass or large plastic beaker?

I never trusted Uncle Bulgaria. I think he's great. Anyone got any recommendations for heating up mulled wine at home? Even when it's on minimum heat on the smallest hob, I inevitably forget about it and come back to find a pot of sweet and spicy grape juice. I'm thinking the slow cooker might work well. |

Step 1: use a large heavy Le Creuset casserole suitable for the stove top and just put it on top of the Aga until it's heated sufficiently. Simples.
Step 2: use the mulled wine to wash out the dishwasher outlet hose, and drink three bottles of a full-bodied syrah red instead.
