Proper takeaway, that'll be. She's absolutely McLovinIt

In line with my fairly melancholy mood terneet...

Fucked up tonight. Just off to bed in the hope of getting some sleep for a change. I haven't been sleeping at at well for a while, so have decided to slip a few down in an attempt to 'relax' and hopefully get some shut-eye. Fat chance I guess, but who knows? Started with a can from the Beer52...

They were great blokes, and sadly missed. One from Wolston and one from Leamington Hastings. Irreplaceable 😢

Two of my uncles left the plant. Did you say they could?

Could be. Pretty sure it was commercially available.

I'd say she's pretty much spot on, except it's debatable that the 'g' sound is prominent. Probably more a 'y' sound. Typically Finno-Ugric type of pronunciation (Finnish/Eesti/Hungarian group).

Isn't that some kind of resource planning fibbertigib? I seem to recall it being used elsewhere. Don't think it's specific to Royce, although they probably had their own custom GUI. Unless I'm goong even dafter...

I detest it. I used to be very proficient in both Word and Access, but it's all probably changed since I retired ten years ago. Excel was always to be avoided by numeric dummies like me.

Yes, indubitably. That's the whole thrust of the dramatization - to illustrate the massive advances in the sciences between the time this bastard stalked the earth and the time he was finally brought to book. And boy, does it deliver? Incredibly well done TV. Congrats to ITV.

A little chink of light for Cov, maybe, with the recent Supreme Court ruling that Insurance companies must pay out for Business Disruption claims made during the first lockdown. Given the huge cut in income caused by the pandemic, this could be a gamechanger...

Trying to recall what 'The Fly' was about. Gonna have to look it up Better Call Saul was excellent too, and not to be missed if you watched Bad. Camino, perhaps not quite so much.

We watched it, and the documentary. Both excellent viewing.

Cheers! Prefer my whiskey as smooth as possible tbh, which is why I switched from Scotch about 30 years ago (gives me raging heartburn, which whiskey doesn't). Still going to buy a bottle though - next month...

Seen it. Not tried it. Will do one day. Still recovering from over-indulging on three different styles of Jamesons over Christmas, so it won't be for a while. Verdict on it asap please!

I'm the same age as you, and an only child. Don't see that changing! Mum did re-marry (a guy from Connecticut) in the eighties, and I inherited three step-brothers*, which came as a bit of a surprise I suppose, but nothing like yours. Rather exciting for you. *I've met one of them, briefly, but...

Shilton Lane one is still there, and very little different. Shame the nearby Jolly Colliers succumbed though. One of my old dad's (and my) favourites.

Absolute classic.

After all I said about binning it for a few weeks, this turned up on the doorstep today. Bugger.

I occasionally try the weekend-only thing. Too tough though. I find a few weeks off at a time easier somehow. Understand why you do it though.
