Since our house sale fell through, I've been recalled as first choice holiday boarding for my canine nephew Bobby. He'll be gutted to discover it's only us oldies here now, as endless games with the kids was always a big draw for visiting dogs.

Breathe in, breathe out. Never look down
Wait...is that rain on the window? Or miniature goblins trying to get in? Bound to be goblins.
Fucksake, get that shit-spouting cunt off my telly. He's not even an MP.
I might have poured too much wine now. Bugger. Potential for regret in the morning: high. Potential for pouring away the excess: very very low.
Yesterday Mr D received a missing instruction manual cosseted inside a fair sized cardboard box. Today, Amazon have delivered a vinyl album and a CD set squished together inside a large brown unpadded envelope. I can't help feeling there's a happy medium somewhere.
House buyers pulled out, flaky fuckers, because it's not the right time for them. So now we have all the fun of months of extra estate agentry and legal pish in our lives, just as we thought the end was in sight. That's honestly more depressing than losing the sale.
The halftime show at the next World Cup should be a competition for amusingly shaped vegetables, and a bloke in a flat hat playing the spoons. There's a balance to be redressed here.
Okay, so now either we have a result or a game for the next 12 minutes.
Merciful God, can we not just go straight to penalties now?
Scrap the Romesh thing just clip Wayne Rooney saying he thought the half time show was crap and the licence fee QR code
Went for a half-time walk. A WALK, for those who were party to my earlier remarks about the extended half-time. So what'd I miss? Was that Rooney calling it crap just then?
Well, it just goes to show. I don't know what it shows. That teams play better football when the outcome doesn't really matter? Probably.
Lurking around on FB reminded me of a dream I had last night about people putting up Reform flags with the arrow pointing to a picture of Nigel's face, and inside the arrow the REFORM bit was replaced with BE KIND. Everybody say awwwww. Or fuck off, Froggy.
There's Mr D being way too polite on the phone about a part missing from an order. 'Can you email us a photo?'. Most of us would struggle to hold back the obvious 'What, you want a picture of the thing I don't have?'
Well done Church in Wales. There is rarely a kind or positive word said about trans people at the moment. The dignity of trans people is not in opposition to women's rights. St John's affirms its commitment to trans and to non-trans people. Explicitly, trans and cis people are welcome at St John's

Remember to scream loudly out of the window at random moments to keep your iPlayer-watching neighbours on their toes.
Equal parts entertaining and frustrating to hear Guy and Alan try to describe shithousery without being able to say shithousery.
Accidentally drinking up some of my world cup Buzzballs on a Tuesday, because I like to be organised and might not feel like them tomorrow.
I respect France's commitment to not working on a holiday.
Had a yen for some fancy soap yesterday, and bought the one that claims to attract Happiness. Bugger me if I didn't forget to take it up to the bathroom. So that's it, fucked for another day.
Then they came for the Customer Service team, And I did not speak out, Because I was on hold, owing to an exceptionally high volume of calls. But my call was important to them.
In the airport toilet I saw a pilot washing his hands and I thought 'typical'.
Well done, England chaps. Shame Norway have to exit. They're kind of cool.

Totally forgot there was going to be rugby. It's too hot for the armchair coaching.
