We have a gardener come round every 2 weeks to give the grass a cut and a quick tidy up. Much easier!

That's ridiculous!
So much in the world would be easier if some sort of sense was applied rather than just rigid rules.

Finally got some game related pictures up in the "Games Room".
Worked on 3 of them, another is the best game ever, and the last was good fun during the lockdowns!

Bang on his door and sort "Ste...Ste.... I'm not leaving until you let me in!"

Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.

That would be quite nice.

Should the bots have a smaller/different "bounce" to them?

I'm afraid I don't. I will monitor her online behaviour!

My dog is called Willow, and I'm called Allan.

I'm pretty sure she can't open my laptop and type/send emails. I'll keep an eye on her!

I always have been teetotal, purely down to not liking the taste.
I'm quite happy with the role of Designated Driver!

It's amazing how much dust they gather. I'd fully expecting my home PC to die due to dustiness!

BotW is one of my favourite games ever. I'd sort of dismissed Atomfall when I saw it, but now I'm interested in it!

We saw that last night and were shocked. We thought ours cost a lot, but we didn't get a loan to pay for it!

Sponsored by Apple? Trying to sell a few more iPhones after people realise it would have been cheaper to get a new mirror?

I've been playing around with Google's new Antigravity IDE (it's using Gemini 3 I think).
I've been seriously impressed by the Godot C# code it has produced with only a few prompts.

Man Vs Bee has a few moments, but it was like an episode of Mr Bean stretched out too long.
I'm expecting this Baby one to be the same.

I moved to a laser printer a long time ago and never looked back. Ink jet printers were always rubbish.
I currently have a Brother colour laser printer, no messing about no matter how long between prints.

I wonder if Claire will notice* if I got one of them and hid it on the tree...

(*Answer, she 100% would!)
