Top tip.. Keith&#39;s coffee and tea suppliers in Cirencester.. one (well two actually.. it was that good) of the best cups of coffee I&#39;ve had in a long time. Positively spiritual XD I was at serious risk of turning into Kyle MacLachlan&#39;s Dale Cooper from Twin Peaks XD https://youtu.be/KxwcQ1dapw8?is=r2T6t2beCcDiqooq

I&#39;ve been shaving every day this week as I&#39;m on holiday and want look presentable. However usually I only shave every second day as I&#39;m a delicate little flower and my face is a bit sensitive and tends to go a bit red and hot. So told my wife i wasn&#39;t going to shave today.. had my shower, came out, dried off, then in a half-asleep fugue .. started shaving on autopilot XD i started so I really had to finish. So my face looks like I&#39;ve been slapped and...

I keep pondering the "3 good things" hashtag but I rarely post under it. I find it very difficult to actually find three good things to mention each day. Not that I'm suggesting my days are all bad but what exactly *IS* good and what is what it should be? Ie ""Had something to eat" is that good? Or is that baseline expectation? I hope every day I have something to eat! "Slept" ..again is this a good thing or baseline expectation. The mere minimum expec...

Our late Sept/Early Oct holiday is booked and paid for. Staying in the UK again as we've had our one international flight this year in Jan when we went to Tromsø. An autumnal visit to the Cotswolds. Looking forward to it.

It's Saturday, lazy start to the day. Playing a little Skyrim AE ... again! However Skyrim is fun but Skyrim with 2000+ mods is... .... something else. I'm playing Gate To Sovengard collection with some extra of my own mods. (By own I mean both mods i always download and play with AND literally my own mods I've written) I've also some paid for creation patches that add new areas and quests. Really makes it a beautiful whole new game. Currently I'm avoiding the sun as,...

I had an internal interview at my company for a new project. My current project is rolling down and I need to find a new team to join. Was told a project was looking for a senior python developer so arranged a chat/interview with the project director and senior architect. Hmm... Not only is it NOT in my current office location and will need a slightly longer commute into busy Central London, more in the office than my current hybrid working and much more client facing.... ... they are also h...

I was tidying up my office today. #AuDHD style. I take everything off the shelves, sort into piles all over every surface, cover the floor, trip over things going in and out, get overwhelmed at the mess, wait for my impulsive #ADHD side to give way to my #Autistic side. Take piles of like items, all DVD&#39;s, all CD&#39;s etc, store them in boxes, move boxes to logical locations (Tools in workshop, dvd/blu rays down by media player, craft stuff to craft room etc) put books back on she...

So I have a day off work tomorrow and a day in London planned with a trip to the cinema at the end !! I&#39;m pretty excited as I don&#39;t get to have a &quot;me&quot; day very often but despite knowing I have &quot;A day in London&quot; I actually have very little idea what to do !! I&#39;ll be mostly around the Southbank (my fave area and since I&#39;m going to the BFI Imax later it seems appropriate) I plan to visit London Fossils and Crystals down from Wat...

Am watching a documentary on Prime called &quot;Woodlands dark and days bewitched&quot; which is about folk horror (Witchfinder General, Wicker man, Psychomania et al) and I noticed a talking head on the commentary wearing a rather familiar t-shirt ;) A little promotion for @Richard_Littler and @scarfolk ;) They&#39;re now talking about &quot;The Stone Tape&quot;. That scared the bejeezus out of me as a kid!!

@dwm@mastodon.social @losttourist@social.chatty.monster @cstross@wandering.shop @tek@freeradical.zone the same humans that breathe an atmosphere that contains rocket fuel, chemically burn food within their bodies for energy (not to mention breaking it down first with strong corrosive acids) and regularly consume known poisonous substances for fun.. no wonder aliens avoid us. 50% of the population being able to process Marmite is just the nail in the coffin IMHO!
