Hell of a pic, Chumbles. The lipstick is a nice touch.
Games - yes! Skyrim, went tomb raiding, came out with a ghostblade, and lots of loot I didn’t really need. Then decided I should probably pick up the main threads of the story so I can fight dragons and stuff. Seem to be playing a spellsword this time, fire in one hand, hitting stick in the other. Want to level up my smithing as quickly as I can, so I can get all the fancy armour and weapons.

Good morning,
Gamesblog: none. Should have a gaming window tonight though. Probably some more RE2make.
Bookblog: about halfway through A Canticle for Leibowitz. I still can't tell whether or not I'm actually enjoying it. I'll stick with it, if only because it's been sat on my to-read pile for about 10 years.
Communityblog: the one where Abed keeps hiring celebrity impersonators.

Morning all
Games - none. I am proving most inefficient at finding gaming time during lockdown. I need to get PM out of furlough and back to work ASAP, although this is not looking likely any time soon.
Am intrigued by the demo of Scorn, especially as coming to PC as well as XB. Always fancied a game set in a complete HR Giger style world, and this seems to hit the mark.
Actually starting to miss the 3hrs a day commute now, audiobook backlog is growing.
OTTM - Started to build a jenga set at the weekend, out of an old bedframe. I believe it used to be called 'Occupational Therapy'.

I got my Mad Max Interceptor model kit out of my secure storage facility yesterday, checked that all the pieces were still there and put it back again. I've gone bonkers, haven't I?
I was infuriated not to be able to find out where four of the decals went. Damn Aoshima and their Japanese instructions.
Right, I'm off out doing physical shopping in Plymouth. I may be some time.

Hello! Ganes? No. TV? Bosch. Bosch! Also, Return to Real Kashmir, which was very good: www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2020/may/12/return-to-real-kashmir-fc-review-football-fighting-and-feral-dogsOstensibly it's about football, but in effect it's a well-shot travel programme focused on a man who resembles an Aberdonian Malcolm Tucker aggressively bellowing out his favourite bits from the Profanisaurus. 4 cunting stars. Books? I love Canticle for Liebowitz. I can't really explain why. I read it in a day. Maybe it just reminded me of Fallout 3. I am still only about a third of the way through the Name of the Wind, as all I do these days is work. Work? Getting close to the platinum on MS Teams. |

Had to go to the actual shops. We needed fresh bread for tomorrow's lunch for sandwiches as it's the child's birthday.
Folk. Are. Off. Their. Chump.
See those big fuck off arrows that are on the floor that never used to be there. Maybe they're for a reason? Maybe follow them round the shop?
I don't really want to be here longer than I have to so perhaps keep your fucking chat to a minimum after you've paid.
I appreciate this might be folks only social interaction of the day. I'm not a total monster. But fucks sake.

Telly: Twin Towers.
OTTM: Bored.

I went for the first walk with the dogs in nearly 2 months yesterday. Big massive fields, and still some idiot woman decided to get too close and her dog (that had a muzzle on) went for mine, even jumping up and trying to climb PM’s leg after she picked ours up. And then the woman had the nerve to say our dog should be muzzled after defending himself and going back. The rest of the walk went well though, Percy bounced back and had several other good meetings with other dogs.
People are the worst.

Want to level up my smithing as quickly as I can, so I can get all the fancy armour and weapons. just in case you have read it somewhere, the iron dagger trick was nerfed by a patch. A good way to up it (and other skills). Mine iron>transmute to gold*>smith jewellry*>enchant* *levelling up skills. It's worth nabbing some gear which increases mana regen and you can sell or store the rings. Worth keeping a few which you can enchant later when you are levelled up more. Sorry if you are aware of this. I have pkayed this game a lot! |

I could post screenshots of charity direct debits. Or I could do a Trump. Say you should and then not do it myself.

I have a conf. call at midday at which I am supposed to be going through a load of stuff I was asked to do a week ago, but have not yet started.
I'm slightly tempted to play the 'bad connection' card, then hang up. Or I might just deny all knowledge of it.
Or far more likely, I'll just blame it on someone else.

I'll need bank account details and your mother's maiden name to accept that as proof. Also are you sure sexyrussiangirls.org is a real charity? I'm not saying it isn't. I just want to make sure before I send them money. |

Yeah, I'll have to get back to you later on that one. Promise.
Probably later in the week, but I'm very busy at the moment so it might be next week.
Also I'm not sure I can do anything until the guidance is updated.
