Fist.

Took the Scots out to Watson's Bay for a beer (at 11am) and then dropped them off at Bondi Beach. Saved them about an hour avoiding public transport and good therapy for me as well... playing the tour guide. Good deed done for the day.

Sicond.

Watch the Rab C Nesbitt episode where they go on holiday to see what you've got in store later.

Costa del Sol... lol

The guy got cooked on the beach today. Refused to apply any sunscreen. Fell asleep on his back... looks painful.

Scottish people only come in two colour options. Pale blue or fire engine red.

There is definitely weather happening here.

Haven't seen the friendly cockney for a while so don't know if the wevver down souf is f*cking sh*t or f*cking alright.

Tirdistan.

I am losing my voice, and, in bad timing, I also had to phone my parents, which means they now both think that:

A) I am incapable of eating correctly
B) I am clearly not sleeping correctly
C) Therefore I have a combination of scurvy, AIDS, and possibly some kind of bird flu.

When in fact it is just a minor cold that happened to settle on my throat and is causing no discomfort whatsoever.

My sympathies. We regularly Skype Galtova's parents and get continual rebukes from her mother about what disgraceful parents we are. The fact our 2-year-old isn't toilet-trained has brought such shame upon her that she can't bring herself to show photos of him to her friends.

I have not chosen to breed, but the dish in the sink when my mum rocks up clearly indicates I am happy to live in some kind of slum housing.

I would hate to have the criticism of my crotch goblins also.

She's also convinced that our cat has hatched some plan to savage him and is just biding her time.

Which may actually be partly true.

No point in rushing toilet training Galted. Eveyone learns in their own good time - one of my mates shat himself a couple of years ago when we were in Berlin.

He learned from it and to my knowledge hasn't done it since. Good boy.

Lol out loud. I'll let her know.

Proof be, if proof be needed indeed.

I’ve heard you just rub their nose in it and they learn when they’ve done wrong.

I think that’s for puppies and old people.

Or strangers on the internet when the facts back you up.

Fist.

Stunning sicond for grateful Galted.

How are things?

Things are good, cheers.

Lovely morning here, and it is Friday with a nice chilled weekend ahead.

You?

Good to hear.

Working from home so haven't ventured out to test the weather - prretty much how I intend to spend the weekend. Looks bright though so I'm sure I'll be roped into at least one walk in the park.

Day off today - attending a couple of free seminars at the Birmingham Film Fistival Festival later.
Then got the Gala Awards Dinner tomorrow evening.
Culture.

That's taking culture to a new level.

Don't forget to give a standing ovation every time someone cries and mentions 'people of colour' in their speech.

All lives matter.

Appreciate all struggles, whether it be addiction or duvet cover.

Black 26 wins.

Fist o' fire.

Sick...

Morning, Peej, you away from the bushfires?

Morning Rick. How was the weekend? I see Newcastle won.

Yes, it's all calm here right now but tomorrow the winds will pick up and it'll be 37° C here.
Should be fine where I am (no large clusters of trees) but I'm a little worried about Mum. She's right next to a forest but there's no history of fires (from memory) at that particular spot.

Bit surreal here.

It was a beautiful blue sky day today... not too hot... with no sense of anything out of the ordinary happening or about to happen.
However the media keep building it up almost as if they want the catastrophe to happen. The problem is it's all so unpredictable.

I've just soaked the lawns for 20-30 minutes under the cover of darkness. It was very parched indeed. Part of it was crunchy under foot this afternoon.

weekend was good, and twas a good victory!

it is cold and grey here with a smattering of rain, I am inducting a minion today which means that soon I can put my feet up and spend all day on V2... Nice.

Glad you are OK and hope you mum is fine too.

It’s very odd for me to deal with. Think Wollongong is down at threat level “catastrophic”, but I’m in the city so safe. My girlfriend works in Campbeltown and appears to be in one of the few schools remaining open. I can imagine the worst that’ll happen for her is a huge diversion on the way home. 

The old house, which is being sold, is close to bush and so is her Dad’s new place down Vincentia, but should suspect both will be fine (especially as the old house is empty - would slightly ruin Thursday’s open house though).

As long as you and yours are good, flipper

I'm off to New Zealand for the cricket next week too, so they'll have to survive without me.

p155ing it down, cold and windy here today, proper gash.

Fist.

Same here. Proper t-shirt weather.

Sicondamundo.

There did end up being a fire near the old house, and the sky here was a brown/orange most of the day, but no real damage and everything ok.

Bizarre to see the same Aussies on my Facebook who took the piss out of Greta Thunberg and those marches now worried about the state of the wildlife and worsening of bushfires. Some real tirds

Out of all the internet outrages of recent times, the outrage at Greta Thunberg is the most confusing to me.

I wore a scarf today.

So you might be Tom Baker?

or Joan Collins if it was a head scarf.

Or Tom Collins if you were a drink.

Edwyn Collins if the drink was orange juice.

Fisticles...

It's cold this morning.

Sicond..

Not so hot today.

Tird. Working from home today so the scarf is still in my bag. Not even wearing socks in fact, this forum needs mavericks seeing as Tino's still dead.

In the words of Tino, people who don't know the difference between etymology and entomology bug me more than words can describe... Probably

I have a scarf today Brafordians are not impressed.

I don't own a scarf and I'm glad that Tina is dead.

Wrong side of the bed this morning, mate?

I'm the happiest man in Scotland.
