I mean, I've never marched in my life, but I've seen how it's done (and practiced) up close plenty of times and bloody hell.
Might send it to Father for the lols .

The second flag is smaller, obviously.

I like to think of them absolutely raging as they slowly, slowly, hoist it to the top of the pole.
Maybe it catches and gets a bit stuck on the way up, enraging them more and creating the need for a second flag of revenge to be flown, this time against makers of faulty flag poles.

I dunno Kevin, couple of minutes of scrolling and the old hate engine is chugging away quite nicely.

I'm having Rupi Kaur poetry reading flashbacks, having successfully suppressed the memory for a year or two.

Ah, that's not so bad for the full whack down your way! That cheesecake looks tremendous.

Ah, that's good to hear. I enjoyed the first one, and I like Jon Bernthal.

They were very fine figures of men certainly, though sadly, not being that way inclined, I just felt like a sad, doughy, little man boy amongst them.

As an aside, I am not small - 6 foot tall, stocky - but I have never felt so tiny as when I went for my COVID tests at the town hall and they were manned by Pacific islander soldiers. Hulking specimen after hulking specimen alongside, bizarrely, one small wiry Glaswegian lad.

Was just about to say the same, but glad I scanned to if someone else had got there first. I'd put a fiver on it being the army.

Every week the latest companion has to spend 5 minutes explaining that there is a space time emergency and that they can't just go to "the planet of the right funny monkeys" again.

Surprised how full mine ended up being, but mad weeks long wild camping trips fill in Scotland. A lot of the south would have been blank until not that long ago.

Just a flying visit on the way to see family this time, but I think we'll be back pretty soon.

Every time I've gone near something other than food, scenery or little jokes, I've had some strangelord rock up, sometimes with some snidey quoting. Blimey, I've even had it with the odd little joke. Makes me simply not bother.

Oh, definitely getting better.
It just makes me more reluctant to start watching any big series tbh.

Genuinely miffed. While I'd hesitate to describe it as good exactly, I was really enjoying it.

This is true. Bought a kit and did it himself.
He kips in there as much as he does in the house.

"Why joylessness is a sign of intelligence - and what that says about the people who have mocked me all my life."

That sort of talk is never going to get you your citizenship back from the triangle lads Kevin.

From what I've read in the Very Real Medical Journals, this will keep the worst effects at bay, but is lacking in those essential happy frog nutrients.

I wish they'd remaster/remake it like they have Oblivion. Much more interesting setting!
