The best thing about travelling on the train with Farrers is that he’s not afraid to tell people to take their bags off the fucking seats.

I haven’t used Amazon since 2020. I think this might be the only time in my entire life that I’ve been ahead of the curve.

I’m so fed up with my brain. I’m off tomorrow and Friday and I’ve worked slightly longer than I needed to but the You’ve Been a Dick voice is telling me I’ve submitted a fraudulent time card and made a ton of mistakes today. Just let me enjoy a quiet evening, ffs.

Good morning. Heading home today for a two day work week before Mew in London on Thursday. Must make the most of this before we’re back to utter drudgery next week.

A group has arrived at the table beside us. I had to get Farrers to fill in the gaps because deaf but: “The whole idea of fine dining… You get fuck all on your plate. It’s not for me.”
I’ve adjusted my hearing aid to try to tune in.

Had a lovely dinner in Chinatown and we’re now in a comically hapless cocktail bar where they’ve ‘run out of some of the ingredients’ for a Boulevardier. A Boulevardier has three (3) ingredients.

There should be an independent adjudicator of roast potato crispiness in restaurants because I have literally never had a crispy roast potato in a restaurant despite every establishment claiming crispiness.

It turns out #FancyDrinks and fried chicken are the key to a perfect sleep score. BRB I’m just going to tell Bryan Johnson.

We’re in a Korean chicken shop and feeling nostalgic for the London tweetups of old where we’d get completely stotious, often at the expense of Simon Bishop (RIP, Angel), and then stumble to Chicken Cottage before getting the night bus home. I miss those days, when everyone was alive.

We’ve left SiC now but before we left The Meece came out to see what all the fuss is about. Marjorie was impressed with the knowledgable staff and has proclaimed it Not Frivolous. Check the sky for two moons &c. #FancyDrinks

Poor Farrers had a cold. He realised at lunch that he’d forgotten to bring his meds with him and there are literally no pharmacies around Salford Quays so we came back to the hotel. He’s dosed up on the good stuff and having a nap while I fart about being a twat on Instagram.
