Hi! Still working. Why? I don’t know. As a lifelong slacker I feel personally attacked by the lack of furlough.
Games! No! Well, CoD, but that doesn’t count. Multiplayer only. Battles Royale are for children and the mentally feeble. I should man up and get back into DS3 but it just seems far too stressful at the moment. Speaking of which:
OTTM: has anyone read The Reptile Enclosure by JG Ballard? I’m not saying that this latest Elon Musk venture is a terrible, terrible idea that will end in utter horror and mass death*, but I have my concerns...
*relatively speaking. I appreciate that we’re not looking exactly A-OK anyway right now.

Also I have finished my best whisky. However I notice that the panic is not over. I did open a new (from the store of whiskies) similar yet slightly different bottle. Just to be on the safe side you understand.
Coincidentally while playing Fortnite I accidentally jumped out of the helicopter from its maximum height instead of landing it.
I had several seconds of plummeting in which to consider whether I had made a mistake. I am of the opinion that mapping lose height to L2 and dive out of helicopter to square is confusing. It's almost certain to lead to unnecessary accidents. Fortunately I had done it in a quiet area and I was successfully revived.
I recorded 858 damage to me in that game. Technically I died 8.5 times.

Has anyone watched the new Killing Eve? About halfway through s1 I thought it was ace, but by the end of s2 I really hated it. Planning to give the new one a miss unless someone whose opinion I trust (or maybe even someone on here) tells me otherwise. Hi! Its intriguing in that its hard to tell who is working for who and why, and how close to the books they are going to take it. I still liked it up to the end of S2 because I just enjoy Jodie Comer in it. |

Shenguin there, being everything you want in a stepfather, calm, caring, nurturing. Do 5yo and 12yo have the same dad? I only ask as I’m concerned you’re their only father figure right now. Poor little things. Don’t stand a chance.

Chilli paneer! you beautiful bastard. Thats top banana quality stuff. Indo-chinese is the best. Good afternoon! Games - Animal Crossing - you lot seen the new stuff coming on Thursday? Looks TB. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpZyexo-ziAStellaris - GeForceNow lost my saves for some reason. Then I realised it actually runs fine on my laptop and there's no point in streaming it anyway. TB. My science ship researched a derelict ship, then all went mad and killed each other. TB. Deliveries came in on Monday - now fully stocked for wine, cider, coke, Boss coffee, hobs nob, all the essentials. |

ShenguinIt's not much better even if they are your own. Last night Rolling Jr the Elder left the hob burner on after making dinner and it set fire to a nearby plastic sieve. I only noticed it about an hour into the conflagration when I saw the flames reflected in the Gaggia. I was on my turbo trainer and had naturally assumed the smell of burning plastic was just a consequence of my extremely powerful thighs being too much for the turbo to handle.

Trying to avoid Google is pointless. It will only get you further up Sergei's watchlist. Apart from anything else a very significant part of the structure of the web is effectively controlled by Google. Though Jeff can protect you on any page marked AWS. Which is a surprisingly large number these days. What I am saying is if you want a Google branded tin foil hat it can be delivered next day via Amazon Prime. |

I do love my Gaggia tbf. If the fire had spread I'd probably have taken it safely out to the garden before coming back to alert my family.

Hi
Lovely sunny day again. Shame I have work to do. I predict the end of lock down will coincide with a month of torrential rain and cold temperatures.
Games? Yes, that Stranded Deep that was out on ps4 yesterday. I like. Four stars.
Hope you are all well.

Where's the latest sweet content amipal? Don't give that work/life balance stuff. We all know you've been pissing about with your shed/bay window/shelving/conservatory for ages. I want to see some shooty-shooty action. Pronto.* *A nice shirt wouldn't go amiss either. Thanks. Tids. Well, you sir, MrTiddles, is that me taking time to record Sweet Content is time where I should be playing with the boy or doing DIY. If I decided to go and record Sweet Content, there would be much Marge Simpson-style groaning. On the other hand, I have managed to get the boy playing on the Amiga without said-groaning. So that's a plus*. *missed an obvious one here... "So that's an A500+" |

Poor little things. Don’t stand a chance. Different. See last month's posts* regarding the recent death of the 12y-o's Dad. Don't worry too much, they've got an uncle or something like that, I dunno, but I reckon he'll be there for all the stuff that doesn't involve ignoring them. *I know, you don't read my posts. |

There was an interesting comment on one of the Guardian articles from someone pointing out how the Govt are attributing deaths. They were alledging that there's pressure to limit covid as the cause or similar. No idea if true but I would be surprised if there wasn't some massaging of figures. |

Technically it is a coffee machine. But an expensive one for perverts.
I would quite like one.
