I am in a field. Attended a very good talk by the author of this book, followed later by an extremely disappointing set by the Sister of Mercy. Currently, Book = 1, Sisters = 0.

One of my colleagues presented me with this gift, found in a charity shop in Saffron Waldon. It is perfection.

Last time I was at the Enmore, we were daydrinking in the back alley as Jane's Addiction loaded out. Perry Farrel stood on tiptoes and kissed my cheek and I didn't wash my face for 3 days. Anyway. That was 21 years ago. Paralytic, syphilitic, get your rocks off and come together, right now.

On behalf of my people, I can only apologise for whatever this is about to be... they've missed a trick not translating the text of the coat of arms into Latin.

Brothers, spouses and nibblings arrive today and I am to be relegated to the mouse mausoleum. When we were kids and this was my grandma's house, there was 3 times as much crap, but also 3 bunk beds and a Nintendo.

I tried 4 different bottlo's for a can of Fosters with no joy, but there was some out of date VB in the backyard fridge, so 🤷♀️.

I currently have a bedroom at my parents, but the hoards descend for Big Christmas on the 27th so I will be relegated to the 'I really need to organise a garage sale' room of antiquities and guff.
A non-zero number of dead mice were found when I tidied to make it habitable.

So I hit pause on the timer while I was at my brother's house, because sleeping in a bed and eating food off a china plate doesn't count, it's taken 52 odd hours of planes, trains, and a single automobile. Mission accomplished, Christmas presents delivered in person.

It was another 4 more hours to my little brother's place after this point. I have been fed, watered and hosed down, and now shall sleep not sitting in an uncomfortable chair. Final 6 hours of operation 'surprise Mum for Christmas' to be conducted on Friday.

This week's work accommodation's toilet seat is clear resin decorated with painted shells. Every morning this week I've stumbled in in the near dark and thought I was sharing a house with un-potty trained savages.

I taped second of these two signs to the inside of the one of the ladies' cubicle doors in my old pub. If you got as far as inside the cubicle it meant you had ignored 3 previous signs (such as the first photo) declaring the toilet to be out of order, and
