Curry on a train. Why not?

Nothing like a little bit of 80s synth pop to help me along on my morning walk. A quick step here, a side kick there.

Exactly, and it looks like they need to revisit their DR plan.

For me I loved how sociable it was, and totally the norm to pop out to Leadenhall market or any of the many pubs in the area for a couple of pints at lunchtime or after work. Terrific.

Aye, did that for the best part of 10 years too, Waterloo to Bank, and then shuffle along Cornhill and Leadenhall with all the other suits. Miss the City sometimes.

It’s so nice outside I could have done a bbq, instead it’s going to be pulled pork and apple cobs with Mac n Cheese on the side for a healthy late lunch

Doing pulled pork this weekend and I need some Muscovado sugar for the rub. Found this in the back of the cupboard. I bought this in Beckenham when we lived there 7 years ago. It still feels moist (great word) in the bag, so that’ll do nicely.

Aye, the not working bit is the key here.

This looks interesting and the CBD too. I’m taking magnesium glycinate which helps, but I’m still waking up at 4am mulling over stuff.

Plastic straws for the win. It’s like living in a 2000AD comic book.

Made pizza toast for the lols, and the funny thing is that it’s a bit like Findus French Bread Pizza, a GenX staple back in the day 🀣

Put the TV on this morning while making breakfast to be greeted by #Milkshake on Channel 5. This used to be a regular when the children were small, I almost settled down to watch #peppapig

More Christmas leftovers, this time the unfortunate liqueurs, just a couple of errant chocolates, best not to waste them, eh?

Am I the only one still finishing off Christmas leftovers? Today it’s mulled wine? Ready made and microwaved, just like the heathen I am. #christmasleftovers

Are you looking for the rise of technology in general, or the rise of specific tech companies?

I got back into Mac’s when Apple released the Macmini. Bring your own mouse and keyboard was the strapline. Such a great machine. Since then I’ve been through the iterations, all good, but the latest, the M4, is something else. Such a small form factor, and plenty powerful enough for my needs.
