Sicond.

I eat banks for breakfast. Usually start at the corners on those large stone quoins... then work my way upwards... leaving the windows for last.

They are probably counting all that slave trading rental money earned, Supes. They need a quiet day off - free of distractions - for that.

How's it going? Was your weekend OK? Did you play any golf?

I'd best keep quiet on the slave front, PJ.  Scots were particularly prominent in the slave trade so we've no moral high ground there.  

Weekend was fine - drank a bit too much on Friday and watched 5 episodes of the Karate Kid follow-up, "Cobra- Kai".  It was surprisngly good but meant I went to bed far too late for a man of my advancing years.  

I haven't played golf for years - can't imagine what Mrs Superfly's reaction would be if I told her I was off out for 5 hours to play golf.

How about you?

But you were only "keeping the books" mostly... and you pulled out of The Darien Scheme when you realised it was quite a sweaty place and there were far too many mosquitoes for your liking.

I was pretty well behaved over the weekend. I was actually quite tired after overworking myself (not downstairs on my other fella) on Friday.
So I spent most of Saturday and Sunday quietly relaxing in the warmer weather. Would have been very good conditions to rip one out in retrospect.

I caught a glimpse of some golf last week in Scotland. Couldn't imagine more difficult conditions in which to hit a small ball accurately towards a tiny wee hole with a constant gale blowing. And don't get me started on those bunkers. Open cut mines more like!

Those ones in Florida are completely fake by comparison. Yours are the best... by a long shot.

Remember a Bank Holiday fixture at the Oval a few years back. A slightly elderly gentlemen in front of me was expounding on the subject of such Holidays to his pal. Something like this, ''When I was working, they were brilliant and I always looked forward to them. Now I'm retired, they're a pain in the arse.''

Morning PJ, Tina and Rick.

Tina - another good reason to sit around all day with your thumb up your @rse.

Rick - it was fine because all of my clients were off yesterday and I got left in peace to get on with watching Cobra Kai on Netflix.

I am watching Penny Dreadful at the moment, and Lovecraft Country, both pretty decent.

Is Cobra-Kai any good then? That is our two resident lawyers both mentioning it.

I started watching Lovecraft Country this weekend. Sky Atlantic. Proper enjoyed it. Anyone seen it?

Cobra Kai is very good.

Has some corny moments like the original film but also subverts it and focusses more on the much more interesting bad guy. Definitely funnier, darker and more sweary as well.

My enjoyment of it is probably largely fuelled by nostalgia, but they've done a really good job of it so far.

Good enough for me. I'll stick it on the list.

Two questions -

1- Does anyone say "sweep the leg" at any point
2 - Are there any bare knockers on display. Preferably female but will take anything.

1. Yes - those three words are said in that order.
2. Not as yet, but Laruso's daughter is a bit of a looker and despite only being about 16 or 17 in the programme, is played by a 24 year old (which is less problematic - or more depending on your preferences).
