Posted on here before IIRC about how multipacks of cans of Shandy have disappeared from supermarkets near me. I picked a single can of shandy up from M&S recently which I now tried to drink. It’s disgusting, lemon and lime with IPA. Not fizzy and sickly, plus 2.8% proof so no good for work…

My dad was a merchant seaman on long haul container ships; 6 months on, 6 months off. We had a freezer full of the finest T bone steak. Shelves heaving with Jamaican Blue #Mountain coffee. Then he moved jobs and had to get used to Findus Crispy Pancakes and Nescafé. Never quite the same. #vss365

#TeztunesMonthOfMusic #MusicChallenge 2 - 80s disco hit by female/female group Eighth Wonder-I’m Not Scared Saw Patsy Kensit and co doing this in a showcase event prior to a disco night in a uni ballroom. She was at the bar later buying a drink so she wasn’t as aloof as I’d assumed her to be.

It’s my birthday so if I want to eat three cheese and onion rolls in a day I bloody well will. And now have.

Going to write a book about a MAGA guy who uses AI to plan kills during the period of fasting before Easter. The only clue left behind is a very strong smell of fart. The SI Lent Assassin.

This wee fella and his mate pack quite a punch. Had been wavering between these, T7V, and the bigger T8V and these are more than enough for my room. Bass pretty good too, auditioned them with the Slowdive track “Souvlaki Space Station” and was definitely meaty enough for me.

Completely forgot it’s my birthday tomorrow. As I am old and single I now have to order my own presents so got a nice new pair of Adam Audio studio monitor speakers on the way.

Oh no I woke up and discovered I have aged a whole year.😱

6 miles walked, 1 mile swim. Bring on the fish & chips. (well, it’s actually fish and mint potatoes and I’m cooking it myself, but it’ll do nicely)

Random purchase of the day. On a stroll happened upon a kind of post punk bric-à-brac shop and came away with this framed yellowed front cover of an NME I fondly remember. Owner loved the first Mary Chain singles but was put off the band travelling hours for the 15 minute gig that ended in a riot.

Social media is bad for mental health. Not talking about manic conspiracy theories, clickbait or gaslighting. No. I’m on about people constantly posting exactly the same things I saw ages ago and leaving me wondering if my brain is broken. Wish there was a “hide shit you have already read” option.

If the 5 guys at Fairford were looking to steal fuel from that US base then it could be linked to the meddling of a “foreign actor”. Specifically one who appeared in Home Alone 2 and whose dumb actions have led to fuel prices rocketing up.

Wandering bleary-eyed into the men’s swimming pool changing room at about 7:30AM and there’s a notice on the door saying they’re swapping the mens and womens changing rooms over permanently from Friday. Absolutely zero opportunity for unintended farce there.

Got a Doomsday ticket in my usual seat. Wednesday (16th December) isn’t the standard day for MCU releases, but it should split the week up nicely. Have to say that this “DLC” style approach to adding scenes in certain types of cinema over others sounds insidious and horrible. Hope they drop it.

“Abandon your clothing before entry for we all leave stripped of our guilt, self consciousness and cares. These shall disappear once we enter the ritual chamber and let its fires #purify our bodily shells”. Yeah, fuck that mate. I only came here to give your boiler its annual inspection. #vss365
