Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work.

'You know what that sounds like? Somebody else's problem.'

Also....

'I only give advice. You don't have to do any of this.'

To be brutally honest.

The system is way beyond rot.

The worst of the worst are at the top.

Greedy, corrupt pedophiles.

Cannibals FFS. Things we thought of as conspiracy. Are actually true.

In all honesty. The entire system needs to be burnt to the ground.

I'm loving the second season even more than the first, and I loved the first season.

I think the second season reminds me even more of the game. A game I have sunk a shameful amount of hours into.

Headline on this news article explains that a single man fought 12 policeman while masturbating. The man in question plays it down by saying he had used meth, but I remain genuinely impressed.

This remains one of the greatest (and actually quite impressive) headlines ever.

Goodness me! That drone footage is astonishingly dramatic. Really brings it home how fast they're going.

It's always great watching the opposition warming up and thinking 'Christ! I wish I hadn't seen that.'.

I can't imagine how good that Bayern contingent look.

Did everyone completely forget that at one point Rachel stood next to the bar and said 'If I was a faithful'?

Judging from how many people are taking about it at work (and it being in the Telegraph), I'm not convinced.

It seems like the assumption is that people are watching it.

Get rid of the chest of chance. It's a silly way to decide it.

You can greatly reduce the chances of getting to that point by having an odd number at each round table.

Easy.

Fingers crossed.

These meds are well outside my scope of practice so I have nothing else to offer other than my best wishes with it.

I've heard it can be difficult. I've looked after people who've done it and some seem to do it fine, others not do much and I've heard them talk about things like brain zaps.

Hope you get on okay.

I lived on a narrow boat just outside of Birmingham for a year. We took it through Bloxwich one time. I remember thinking how fucking awful a place it was back then, and that was getting on for 40 years ago.

Didn't sound like it's picked up much?

I just watched Mark Carney's sppech and realised that Trump could not have delivered a single line of it with any coherence, or even understating of what he was saying.

If it's written by Burchill, it's going to be one of the worst possible takes.

She's fucking vile.

I really like the idea of Europe, or at least the nations involved in the tariff threats, boycotting the World Cup.

In fact, if The Orange Shitgibbon continues on his current path surely the right thing for most nations to do is just not turn up.

It's weird how the brain is programmed to remember certain things in a certain way, but refuses to help with other things.

I looked at my National Insurance number once when I got my card aged 16 (I guess), and have never forgotten it.

I also remember my grandparents phone number from the pre-area-codes starting with zero times - 86 484208.

Absolutely. Ultimately, I'm a winner here, despite this stock now ending up being worth ยฃ149.67p.

Almost 6 months ago I put ยฃ150 in to one of those stock trading apps, just to play around with.

In that time I have invested in nearly 100 different stocks and today that money is worth........

I'm quite proud of the relationship I've built with my daughters. I think they're pretty open with me about things.

However, when my 16 year old turned to me during this bit of #TheTraitors and laughing, said 'That's me on the second day of my period', I wondered if 'too open' might be a thing. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

I had a coffee in the evening once, must've been 20 odd years ago. I absolutely could not go to sleep that night and I normally go to sleep fine.

I have avoided coffee after 1400 ever since and am simply not prepared to risk it. Ever again.
