When I am in charge no one will be allowed to be cough free unless I am cough free.

Try 4 interactions with other human beings a week*; and they have to be paid to come and see me**. *Thank the Lord of Gamers ... **One once close friend says in her Xmas cards "I really will come and see you this year" yeah, right ... the problem is being seriously ill, housebound seems to mean to most that it's like a visit to the morgue. It extends to Xmas - presents out: 80 odd, presents in: 0 - after all why give presents to a dead man***? I'm happy with virtual visits tbh, I don't need the physical presence of others to validate me. I guess I am fucking lucky that I am far far more tough minded than I thought. ***I like giving presents, it embarrasses them |

Any of the other space games worth looking at on gog? There is always elite still beckoning, was that anyone's most played game last year? ahem
Probably.
… but then I did sign up for the most epic 6 month waste of time mission ever. Totally worth it.
There are rumours of a major update coming soon, including a possible paid 'season' update later, so if you are going to jump in, check what you are buying.... if you go for the lifetime option you'll get the future updates included, if you go for base game, or Horizons season pass you'll need to pay for the upcoming new season when it's released.
cobblers - If Betelgeuse is going to go nova in-game i'm up for a suicide mission just to see the lights!

Even though I can't play it, I bought Between the Stars, because it's beautiful! Elite Dangerous in my book is the best; somewhere there's a space station Tafaille and an NPC Cmdr Chumbles... Neptune's Pride is brilliant AND free... Finally, old, but the best mixture of strategy and story game mix, Alpha Centauri _ £4.59...  MrTiddles : thanks for the offer, give you my address? I know your tricks ... my security is good, but if it's delivered by a JCB I doubt the front of the building would survive |

Afternoon. Hope Sheep's cough abates soon. Hope Chumbles something somethings. I actually don't know what to say about that other than stay you if you're as happy as you can be with health problems. God knows I know what chronic pain is like and happily wasted an hour of a new PT's time last night talking about my 15 year problem. Serves the prick right for trying to target me with his "have you thought about personal training" delivery so I cut him off mid-sentence, wasted an hour of his time then fucked off home  Ganes: None Gym: 8k treadmill run in 39" which seems reasonable progress at the moment building up to 10km then moving to the Woodway mill for outdoor training simulation (I run outdoors for reals with a slow person for the fun, am never getting quicker with her nattering and slowing us down). OTTM: Fuck the weather. |

Dammit should have been 39', single apostrophe for minutes, double quote for seconds, although these are technically only used nowadays for maps, and lat / long, not clock time. |

Rumors of my deaf have been greatly exaggerated!
No one noticed? Top banana.
Finally emerged from being buried under a pile of documents as long as Long Barry.
Games - no, TV - no.

It's noticeable that the one stat given about the harm caused by alcohol is as a cause of death in men under 24. I guess I'm fine.

I see Danky singlehandedly shut this place down. Top work. We hid until it was safe to come out ... In other news I ordered 4 items from Amazon (2 of which are NHS supplies that the twat doing the ordering at Nursey HQ regularly fails to order enough). One was posted Royal Mail... arrived at 9.30 a.m. The courier collected the rest at 9.38 a.m. 26 miles away... tracking said 12-2... now saying 4 - 6; but annoyingly the other depot is only 20 miles and an hour less to travel. |

Every doctor I know is a borderline alcoholic, so drinking must be fine.

Just watched a video of the bit I'm stuck at in Drake's Fortune.
Fucks sake.
Can't believe I didn't try that.
Possibly a small bdt later. I've a Brewdog Zombie Cake porter to try later. Never tried a porter. We shall see.
Had a couple of nurses before!
Oh the banter.

Exactly. That's why I prefer to get my medical advice here.
