Morning children (stop drooling baggy)
Anyone got anything exciting* planned for today?
Alt: what have you tried recently that was better/worse than you expected?
Altalt: I have decided that I need to make peppermint creams, which I haven't done since I was a kid. What other retro things should come back?
* less dull than you normally are

I am going clay pigeon shooting.
I recently watched paint dry and it was exactly what I expected.
If I were to make a sweet it would be something with condensed milk.

We used to make a lovely fudge with condensed milk when I was at school
In hindsight I think the recipe was 2lbs of sugar and a couple of cans of milk (whatever carnation is, evaporated or condensed, it was the other one) and some full fat milk. A pan of diabetes basically.

I am working from home today
This may well be less successful than normal as our office servers (into which I VPN to work at home) got severely buggered by a trojan program on Thursday evening and haven't been fully restored yet. If I have any difficulty I may spend the day drinking and masturbating. No change there.
Alt: Gardening (cue 'uphill' comments). I find it quite therapeutic. I'll be growing herbs, peppers and chillis - might even try tomatoes as well.
Altalt: Spangles

it was so irritating, you'd get so close to completing the album, but there'd be one or two you NEVER EVER got.
meanwhile the pile of duplicate glenn cockerills grew ever higher.

You know the McDonalds monopoloy ones
They intentionally geographical distribute them so the odds of getting the high-end set are really low unless you travel all over the country.
I wonder if there's any Swaps website, that has loads of potential.

Which means, stay out of sight, I'll radio you if there's any actual work. So my exciting plans are to buy a paper and go find a warm riser cupboard.

Altalt: Dinosaur shaped food. Specifically turkey dinosaurs.
