Just had a car pull out right in front of me, from a side street. I'm doing 50 and had to brake quite hard to avoid stacking into him.

"In What Ridiculous Way Will Essjax Injure Himself Today?"

In this year's Christmas delights, darling relative Miss 7 went and chose presents for everyone from charity shops.
This guy, this frog doing the splits, was my gift because "He's funny and he does the splits like you"

Had a few beers yesterday but sensible stuff. Had no alcohol today. Family have all left already, just chilling with a book. Dull but chill.

Stephen King is entertaining me, "Under The Dome"
I don't know why that sounds saucy 🤔

I'm in the hotel where the West Indies cricket team are staying. The staff say they're a lovely bunch of chaps, and I can totally imagine that. They seem like great chaps.
