I am an angry man, when I try to import piccys from my Samsung J whatever phone, they are too big to post here. I has to use my old HTC to post a blurry ad for Keegan to visit your school in 1982. A waste of my time. Oh..

Bolognese bubbling away, Half a glass of Pinot Noir raised to the new boxer baby.
I joked on here the other day when the child appeared early morning with a recorder that "at least it wasn't a violin"
She has now appeared with a form from school expressing an interest in viola. It's not surprising as her cousin who she idolises plays it in an orchestra. At least it's not drums.
Some Forza tonight I think.

Hello all. How are the tricks?
Gamesblog - my DQB2 blueprint-build is finished! Just need the relevant trees to make it complete.
It also registered one of the rooms as being in a very high place - so that's sorted.
TVblog - first ep of the new series of Altered Carbon. It was good.
Amigablog - did some pixel-art for my random-map code.
OTTM - friends of ours who are currently going through the adoption process looked after our son for a while earlier. He didn't burn the place down, so that's good.
Lunch - Miller & Carter ribeye steak. YUMMERS.

Sounds like a good opportunity to get free childcare. Tell your friends they need a lot more training before they can have their own. I've just returned from indoors Legoland. It's been a long time since I've seen that many kids in one place. Had lunch, then parked the twins in the under-5s area and kept the two older girls occupied. Pretty manic. Anyway, at least they all had fun. Preferred Mammal and I are fairly knackered. Another lunch with all four kids tomorrow, should be lively. Preferred Mammal is longing for the quiet life. I myself am half deaf after an overexcited random boy screamed into my left ear. Too late to send halp. P.S. Crank, I also play the viola badly. An underrated instrument. Viola players are known for their slow and plodding approach that is the complete opposite of the capricious violinists. Basically the way I play RPGs. Violinists prefer FPSs. |

Morning all
bit of a rut at the moment, no games to speak of and lacking in vim.
ni other things that matter, I frequently get emails from martin lewis about his bitcoin investment scheme the guardian are calling 'fake', little do they understand the world of high rolling investors like myself.

It would be perfect, that's if they didn't live on the other side of Brighton from us. |

I've just watched a bit of Dr Who. Mostly seems to consist of the doctor explaining the plot to herself at length, while Bradley Walsh looks confused in the background. No wonder Shenguin had a breakdown.

tenthenemyMrs C used to play it, her sister plays it, and the child's cousin. It's in the blood. I was not expecting to see babyfark logged into the epic games store. A final Fortnite before the child comes home?

Basically the way I play RPGs. Violinists prefer FPSs. : you realise that if you say "drums" within her hearing... best to start researching electronic drum kits with earphones ... tenthenemy : for 20 years I was a singer / songwriter until I made a recording of 10 or so of my songs in a friend's home studio*. My weapon of choice was a guitar. Not sure how that relates to gaming, but massive TBS games are my bag... *Hearing myself, I was nowhere near as good as I thought I was. In truth it was a lot to ask: unknown kit, never recorded anything before and distracted by his two gorgeous black cats** **I am a cat magnet - if I sit down, cats who are, I'm told, too timid or scared to come near strangers will jump onto my lap and start dribbling over me... PS if the twins are anything like Phil and Lil, good luck |

Brighton is a shit one-horse town that takes only a few minutes to walk across. |

Then they're another half an hour the other side. |

I just read a paper about the economic cost of closing down schools, workplaces, public transport, etc, versus the economic cost of a wide-spread viral infection (flu, as it happens, but I guess it applies to Corvid 19). The long and the short is, it's worth letting quite a lot of people die rather than close stuff down.
Basically, we should be grateful we have a government that will leap at the chance to impose and normalise widespread enforced control of movement and public gatherings.

I suspect they are hamstrung by indecision. If it gets loose in the UK as seems likely then they will be faced with bad or worse choices with very little evidence to make a decision. Not that their decision-making has been notably evidenced based. Given your comment regarding "it's worth letting quite a lot of people die." I suspect that there is a high probability that I will be among the first ... the local hospital houses the Nurseys right next to where its isolation pods are. |
