Very few folks in these parts wearing face masks, but social distancing is quite good, and the area infection rates are fairly low. I haven't been to a pub, but the other adult in my household went and sat in a beer garden yesterday afternoon with her sister. They were glad they went, and confident in the measures and level of adherence to them. Fortunately, I live in the sort of nowhere shit-hole backwater half-a-horse sort of place that there's nowhere indoors to go apart from the Co-op and pubs, and virtually no public transport.

Is Sheep2 dead? Sheep2 are you dead and did Shenguin do it? Wot? A little bit of death won't stop him! You haven't seen the latest football results then? No; this current crop of matches interests me not. I follow on the radio and the cross-cutting between matches seems artificial. |

Wait... it's about filthy colonials?! Forget that! [chucks remote at wall] Nah, it's about Hamilton Accies' incredible playoff promotion season in 2013-14. There was a huge bidding war for the rights after news spread about their 10-2 victory over Morton. Wait... it's about sport?! Forget that! [chucks remote at wall] |

I had a Facebook "memory" pop up this morning for one of the Brighton blog meets from five years ago. Photos inside various pubs... drinking on the pier at Horatio's... all the lads... [sniff]
Excuse me, I've for something in my eye...

That's Mark Zuckerberg lashing out due to companies pulling adverts.
Fuck you all - Have some pre-children going out having fun memories...

tué la pierre du chat mort
Roast chicken, chips, broccoli, carrot gravy. Bootiful.
Absolutely chucking it down here.
Some Rioja, games & TV later. Going to push to finish uncharted 3 and get it off the PS4.

Dinner: roast lamb.
It was spectacular. I may go and gnaw on it further.

I'm avoiding gnawing any more chicken to leave enough to shove in Risotto tomorrow evening. Having some Jaffa cakes instead.

Hair of the dog with a side order of tears.
I have left overs for later. Last night's lamb madras, vegetable rice and garlic naan.

No time for chat.
Steak, mushrooms & chips for dinner
Got to phone folks North of the Border who are celebrating their birthday today. They could have distributed the festivities more evenly throughout the calendar.
Social Distancing Gaming Stream later with mystery game, maybe Hollow Knight.

Only Hamilton I'm interested in races cars. Except when hes getting penalties. Hes a great racer but I hope he fucks it this year because it's boring how dominant he is . Him getting 4th is a good start, and our boy Lando getting 3rd and fastest lap is amazing.
Hope Bottas can keep it going this year, but by past experience I doubt it.

I quit Facebook 5 years ago to avoid shit like that. Just to be on the safe side, I also stopped going to parties 15 years ago.

I've sunk another 2 legendary ships. Just 'La Dame Negra' to go. This one's a bit bloody tasty..
OTTDM: I understand that 'Gripper' finally got hold of 'The Lad'. Details when I get them.
Sports: That 5 second penalty for Hamilton was an injustice, as the in-car footage shows.

Just watched "Hamilton*" and it was bloody good, surprised at how emotional it was. 4*
We had a glass of fizz and a Gin and Tonic at the "interval".
*The stage show.
