5:30 am is roughly the time my fluffy overlords wake me up demanding breakfast. (Wild, sleep-deprived laughter)

He's a harsh GM, but a fair one.

If you try to imagine Tron:Ares as an extended music video for a Nine Inch Nails concept album it makes a lot more sense.

Looking forward to seeing you again. Where's the schedule posted, by the way? I can't find anything beyond a vague outline on the website.

Hello Covid my old friend,
You've come to fuck my life again
Because a virus softly creeping
Bred in my lungs while I was sleeping
And of my voice and breathing I am now tragically bereft
All that's left
Is just the sound of coughing.

I'm also listed as a Programme Participant, which I have to say is very much news to me.

Government faces questions after review of 11 major UK data breaches MP asks why all recommendations have not yet been implemented and why the review itself was kept secret for almost two years

But yeah, sure, a new catch-all ID card system can't possibly go wrong.

If it weren't for the principle of the thing it'd be because of the staggering incompetence.

Best wishes. We took our lad to the vet on Monday morning after a full breakfast. In retrospect, not a wise idea.

Just a small patch of rain pootling along, doing its own thing, not bothered that it's not raining anywhere else.
