Morning.
I have to spend the morning at an online 'Technical Working Party' with a major supplier. This doesn't sound the kind of party where balloons or beer will be involved.

Morning all!
Back to work today, and looks like I missed a day of failed feeds and bad data. Back of the net!
Gamesblog: Skyrim. The Mage is Winterhold has told me that she "cannot teach me anymore" - basically, my Destruction is too good. Currently, it is at level 85, but very tricky to get higher as you need to inflict damage with it for it to level. Now off to a northern fort to rescue a captured denizen of Whiterun.
TVblog: Chef and My Fridge, then some Community.
OTTM: I forgot to switch the dishwasher on last night.

Morning!
Day 2 and I already want to gouge my eyes out. Turns out far too much of the work from the redundancies they made has tumbled down shit mountain to me. Awesome. At least I won't be bored any more, no time for that.
P5R! Almost finished the second dungeon now, just need to tell the bloke I'm about to rob him blind. Classic move for a thief.

Games. ACNH has pulled me back in, I so love being a pirate.
Movies. I watched Back To The Future. Loved it.

Our manager/coach left last night. Not a surprise. We were abject. Miserable. Piled up all the bad things and did them pretty much all at once. What made it worse was we started the game fairly brightly. Even took the lead
Work Overly aggressive
OTTM The happy bunny is not very well. Not since I stabbed him in the face last night.

Disappointed to see amipal fail to sort the dishwasher last night. What happened to the breakfast bowls and cups this morning whilst you run last night's load? Just sitting on the kitchen side in full view like a cheap Amsterdam hooker? Shocking.

But, worst of all, I've let BabyfarkmcGeezak down.

Bit of a blow. Those are my two closest stores. The Brum one has only opened in the last 5 years. They rebuilt the entire station around it. It will look great with a large empty store.

Our manager/coach left last night. Not a surprise. We were abject. Miserable. The only excellent thing about Pep Clotet was that he shares a first name with Pep Guardiola... For once Sheep2 I feel sorry for you; and as I follow both the Gunners and the Owls, that should give some indication of how badly situated the Blues are. As for the Clot, now he's got spare time he should spend some time learning how to do the fucking job.

I don't think he was that bad.
At the end of February I went to QPR and we finished that game on a 12 game unbeaten run and safely mid-table. It wasn't perfect, but it was ok. Since then we have got rid of all the fringe players with any experience. Also he was stuck in the UK during lockdown while his family were in Spain. That can't have been a great experience. I think his mum was seriously ill with it He did try to resign but we made him serve his notice.
Things have really gone south only since the restart. Before then it was a bit disappointing, but well within what we could have reasonably expected. It's a combination of his personal circumstances and the club not responding that has led to this. Plus the players have just played awfully.
It's a shame because I liked him and thought he was an ok coach. Not sure he was a great manager, but he was no Zola.
Particularly given we sold our best player last Summer and were widely expected to struggle 16th and miles clear of relegation at the end of Feb was doing an ok job.

I suppose Love is All Around again today because it's wet, wet, wet. A good excuse for BDT, as is the football, as is the general state of affairs.
Ganes: apparently yesterday was some kind of National video game day. Yeah, me neither. Apparently there's another one in September. I had no idea.
AC:NH. What else? I'm having trouble finding certain things for the museum, why on earth did they make empty cicada shells so rare when they only sell for 10 Bells? Also having a hard time with the palm trunk bugs. I would have thought that I had enough palms for a good spawn rate, but the game says no.
There's a free spot on my island since I let Ricky the grumpy squirrel go. For weeks I haven't had time to go on an island tour, really need to start looking for a new neighbour.
OTTM: another Food Bank collection later today and I've informed myself on what kind of stuff they need most. So they have plenty of pasta and tinned beans and mushy peas but they need other things including milk and coffee. I don't use long life milk and instant coffee myself, so I was spending some time reading reviews of both on the Ocado website before I put in an order as I don't want to donate nasty tasting stuff.

It will look great with a large empty store. I've never even set foot in it as the Pref. Mam. started having mobility issues and we shifted to making Jeff a trillionaire instead. One thing I don't miss is traipsing around the shops, we have both always hated that. I suppose we are to blame. I thought it was a bad idea building the station around the store precisely for this reason but I would never have thought that this would happen so soon.

Hello.
I shall be sorting out my display case today, as there was a major landslide in it 2 weeks ago. Body parts everywhere.

I would have marked you down as a John Lewis Shopper. I guess the Animal Crossing guy got all your custom.

An England batting collapse. It's like cricket's never been away.
