Cousins!
Redd has dropped anchor on my island today and is positively awash with genuine Da Vincis, as in two. I've already secured the Vitruvian Man aka the Academic Painting for my museum, but if you are interested in a genuine Serene Painting (i.e. the Lady with an Ermine) then drop by later today, I will keep my gate open to friends whenever I'm online. Also up for grabs are today's specials at Nook's Cranny, including a pink ring. I also have plenty of spare recipes.

Two of my fantasy football players did badly against Villa. Minus points. Useless cunts. Egan and Lundstram?
Those bums.
Yup. I hope they get relegated. |

Killed it. Well done Egan and Lundstram. You've fucked this up too.

I started doing the SPFL fantasy football this season for the first time. My team got negative points overall in week 1 so I have walked away in high dudgeon. My refusal to select players from certain teams did not help, but what is a man if he is not sustained by principles, and hate?

Happy Birthday BabyfarkmcGeezak! The world has orbited the sun a particular number of times during the period in which you have managed not to die. What could merit curry and beer more than that? |

As one reaches greater numbers for birthdays, it's always worth considering what others achieved in that time.
Like Alexander the Great, who'd conquered the known-world by the age of 32.
Or Neil Armstrong, who landed on the moon at 38 years old.

Because time is accelerating and people now live longer lives too, one Alexander the Great year is actually equivalent to one and a half 21st century years.
Chronology Fact.
So 32 Alexander the Great years is equivalent to 48 of ours. There is still time.

It's difficult for me to get the revolution started if we are limited to groups of no more than 6.
The facemasks help, but that doesn't make up for the low numbers.

Not to mention the fact that Alexander the Great inherited most of Greece from his dad. I got a Fiat Panda off my mum when I was 28, but there was no way it could have been used for a successful invasion of Asia.

It is the most shattering experience of a young man's life when one morning he awakes and quite reasonably says to himself: 'I shall never play the Dane’.

Because of the combined changes in time and space between the earth and the moon (based on gravitation pull and relative distance from the sun), Neil Armstrong was actually 59 when he splashed down again in the Pacific.

People should stop having birthdays and just be the age they were happiest.

Happy birthday babyF, only 6 more months of drinking bleach. Or was it birthday rather than pandemic?
Weddings are out as too many bad memories for Boris but funerals and the attached inheritance is still an option for parties?

Sainsbury's have slashed prices on Le Rustique Camembert.
Superb. Very ripe. Very cheap.

I think it's because it's so ripe. It has made our fridge smell like a bin. A delicious over-full bin.

You really need Epoisses De Bourgogne for the full my fridge smells like a rotting drain experience.
Either that or leave a whole load of salad bits in there for a year.
I had a cheese made with Chimay once that smelled astonishingly rank. Tasted good though.
