12/20. Guessed most of them because I am a pleb. Same as every exam I ever took. Now I help develop life saving drugs! (Most of the time I'm guessing at the results just fyi)
Games: no
OTTM: no

Yodel delivered on time and to my door. I've recommended them on their survey. I told them their tracking app was shit though, but then again, maybe it's intentionally misleading to deter highwaymen.
I'd just refreshed the tracker, saw he was still parked up 2 miles away and I was 6 deliveries away. He then knocked on my door. Impressive.
4000th post? I didn't realise. Still, retrospectively, it's not a bad post.

Games - AC Odd. Level 30, spear upgraded to Level 5, so I can get top level on my perks now. Did some side missions and cultist hunting to get to a higher level as story mission was too high. Took down the Minotaur, started my Arena career. I’m finally about to head to Sparta. How the bally-hell did you manage the Minotaur?! Must have tried it a billion times, gave up on it and went to do something else instead. |

Hello I ordered a 10L Bag In A Box ale online this morning from my local microbrewery. 2 hours later, it's just been delivered. That's what I call service. 4 stars. Similar service from my local brewery. Bloody fantastic. You ordered the wrong size though, school boy error, should have gone for 20L. |

That's not the real one. The game really punishes you if you aren't on the same level as the opponent at the very least. I've found on this playthrough that weapon choice makes all the difference. With the minotaur you want to use the bow a bit but not be too far out. Mid range and dodge a lot to allow a few jabs and repeat. The frustrating thing is that yoy can be doing well but if he gets too close it can be painful. On both this fight and Steropes you can get up close and wheel round to keep on his flanks. Gives you a few more seconds to put in some licks. The health regen perk is a godsend in these fights! I'm not looking forward to Medusa, that one was horribke from what I can remember. |

UpI quite like it, but Shenguin is right. It is the album in which their decline clearly appears. I'd say it is a decent album, with a few clunky songs. After that R.E.M. managed clunky albums with the occasional decent songs Also they started to go for appalling production. It is like they lost faith in their abilities after Bill Berry left. I think we'll have to agree to disagree. Up was not only the first R.E.M. album that I bought on release, but also a change of direction which I think the remaining duo had to do in order to show a clear split. But then R.E.M. have never been one to rest on the laurels - as most evident when they followed Automatic for the People with Monster... no one was expecting that. |

But then R.E.M. have never been one to rest on the laurels - as most evident when they followed Automatic for the People with Monster... no one was expecting that. One thing I think I can safely say I disagree on is whether Buck-Mills-Stipe era R.E.M. were a duo or a trio. They may have wanted to make changes but changing from good to bad was not strictly necessary. Plus massively successful album followed by a slightly disappointing is a well trod career path. I bought Green in 1989 following a recommendation from a friend at school. Not on release day but while it was freshly not in the charts. So I stand by my opinions. |

Accelerate is crap. Surely on that we can all agree?

Similar service from my local brewery. Bloody fantastic. You ordered the wrong size though, school boy error, should have gone for 20L. Alas 10L is the biggest they do. Lasts me about a week, which coincides with the Best Before date on the box. How much are you paying btw? A 10L box of 4.5% Pale Ale is £30 delivered, or about <edit> £1.70 a pint. |

I was just wondering what to have for tea tonight, when a leaflet popped through my door from a 'Kebab Charcoal Grill' place down the road. Now I really fancy a doner kebab. Strange thing is this; if you order online or by 'phone, you get a 10% discount, so presumably if I drag my sorry ass down to the store, it's full price. It's free delivery as well. Hmmnn..
