I woke up to pee. Then remembered that #JodiWorld hotel booking opens today, so did that. Now I'm ravenous, to point I will not sleep until I finish these crisps. I just hope I can get to sleep after as I got no sleep yesterday so am all gritty & yucky feeling 🥱😵‍💫🥱

Am glad #Conclave got a nod for screenplay adaptation at least, as that was about the only one I agreed with (based on those I've seen that is)

I know it was a very mixed (& sadly quite poor, imo) offering this year, but how did a movie where the main character spends most of the time either screaming like a banshee or whining like a bitch get all the biggie awards? #Oscars2025

#LastFourWatched #FilmSky The one nominated for awards (that I know of) is the one of those I didn't like. Glad I sacrificed some work sleep for NT Live Earnest though.

Really not sure why, but #Ash will only come on the bed whilst the duvet is folded over. All I can think is he prefers the feel of the duvet cover over the fluffy blanket 🤔 Weirdo!

"will call in 2 minutes"... 50 minutes later no call Well that's an X against this potential new renter 🙄 Also if you are so desperate to move in and I ask for just a bit of information before moving forward wouldn't you provide it ASAP? Obviously not that desperate An X against this one too 😒

And so it begins... Ash yomped his half of the food sachet in seconds and was prowling behind the rest, ready to pounce if they left their bowls. So I gave him another half a pouch and he happily yomped that all down. This one is going to make my monthly cat foods bills a lot more expensive 🙄😏

Well at least the national/fast trains seem to be running so I shall go to @londonscifi.bsky.social 😁

Although the Dyson customer service is very helpful, and props to the quick delivery, the part previously sent was not the issue so some more/different parts have been ordered 🤞🤞

Well that's my plan to try and cut the travel costs buggered (by going from Watford High St rather than Junction it cuts a surprising amount off the cost). Ah well, at least the tracks are different for the national and overground so should still be able to get to Euston from Junction 🤞🤞

Apparently I'm old enough to be getting personal life insurance quotes 😳 Also, I get (some of) the disparity for smokers & non-smokers but what about ex-smokers? We can still have some of the health issues of smokers, but other financial benefits of non-smokers? 🤔 Seem like insurers are missing out.

A quick video call to Dyson about my vacuum, in which I impressed the guy with my ability to break it down for troubleshooting so quickly (practice trying to fix the bugger!), and a new main unit was ordered for delivery. I've had worse post-work mornings.

And just to prove that I went to a "gin" festival and actually got some gin kas well as the rest of their range) #TGTMT #GinFestival

Some spiced rum and a couple of rum liquor. We're all really nice but just couldn't afford them all on the day. Definitely added to my list for later purchase though #TGTMT #GinFestival

Like Baileys chocolate, but if they used Green & Blacks chocolate instead #TGTMT #GinFestival

A very tasty rum. Not sure why they went with a Spanish name for a Jamaican rum company, but it is delicious either way #TGTMT #GinFestival

How to legitimately get a 17 year old into an 18 rated movie: 1. Book Secret Screaming with a rating of "TBA" 2. Be ready to argue that 17 is practically 18 and how I shouldn't have been able to book it 3. Have scanner bod refer to their manager whose reply was 'that's practically 18, let them in'

Decided to make it a short one due to sore knee, but got my swag, lots of free tasters and free full drink, as well as loads of takeaways #TGTMT #GinFestival

submitted 23 days ago • 0 comments

An hour in and I have already tasted most of the drinks on offer. A palette cleanser (free!) drink then another circuit for a few I had my eye on but didn't taste, then the heavy decision of which to takeaway (key being special offers for today and fliers for later) #TGTMT #GinFestival
