Cousins!
Redd is again on my island and had two genuine pieces of art. Still up for grabs is a genuine Scary Painting. I'll be online later today, most likely in the evening, so drop by if you'd like to do any shopping. Nook's Cranny's special include an Antique Chair (brown, I think) and a white Rattan Table Lamp, both of which I already have.
OTTM: Pref.Mam. and I would really like to watch the Biden/Trump debate tonight, but it's like at 3 o'clock in the morning, so we won't. Stupid Americans, stupid time zones.

There's a village in Dorset which is pretty nice. Well more of a hamlet. Not much more than a pub next to a marshy lagoon. Apparently ... Francis Drake? moored his ships there.
I can't remember its name ...

Exactly.
Tolpuddle is worth seeing briefly, not worth going to see.
I'd recommend Portland, but there is a big bill.

Afternoon all
I can't drink coffee either as I (if you'll excuse the following phrase) shake like a shitting dog after I drink a cup.
Destry! I've also just come back from Dorset. Corfe Castle and Swanage were our places to visit. Well nice.
As Corfe Castle's castle was originally built by William the Conqueror I assume it's now in ruins because Amipal visited at some point?

If you're in Dorchester, then there's only one place to go: Monkey World.
Deposit the wife there, and spend a wonderful few hours at the Tank Museum.

Morning,
Had a visit to the Osteopath this morning, she gave me a proper pummelling and I can now turn my head both left AND right. Good times.
So then I was euphorically riding my sweet electric hog back through town, the sun shining down, looking left and right and forward, probably getting checked out by lots of hot chicks, when a fly managed to navigate through my smiling teeth at approx 25/30mph, I think it ricocheted off my tonsil and then hit the back of my throat where my reflexes took over and I half swallowed it. This led to lots of cool guy road side retching and spitting, but it was too late and is now part of my lunch report.
1 Fly
Demae sesame noodles
with lazy ginger, dried chilli flakes and frozen sweet corn and peas.
1 Magnum classic

TV chat,
Finished off season 2 of Cobra Kai, the final episode was very good I thought.
Games, still not tried 'among us', but I will.

Beautiful place. May go back again next year. |

afternoon all
coffee chat:
less is more, people always use too much when making fresh coffee, it will naturally dry you out the more you drink which is why in Italy they would have a glass of water with it. I typically use 2 coffee spoon measures for 15 cups which is one carafe, ample.
cold here in the Cronx.
For Mr. Tiddles (ACDC) - Bon Scott (died 1980) was before Brian Johnson (quit because of hearing issue).
edit:going out back later Ciao!

What kind of sick in the head degenerate bastard puts grapes in a sandwich? That's even worse than decaf coffee.
