Out walking in the rain, in a heavy shower, in a properly waterproof coat. I am invincible! Well, my coat is, at least.

Cute hoors. I've switched utility supplier, and got this mail from the old crowd. There is zero reason why the refund couldn't be issued within the same 14 day time frame.

Thou, from whose unseen presence the leaves dead
Are driven, like ghosts from an enchanter fleeing,
You're give me a fierce headache.

Tonight's dinner experiment was a failure. It managed to be simultaneously slightly spicy and inutterably bland. 0/10.

Most delivery companies manage to give a rough ETA on the day of delivery - eg afternoon, between 2 and 4 or whatever. This company needs a signature, and has sent me 5 messages saying "before end of day". Is that before midnight?

Do I know any engineers? Trying to figure out how to calculate the live loads of things I build with wood. For a simple example, let's say i have a plank of wood on 4 short legs - a mini step. How do I know the max weight of a person who could stand on it?

I'm finding loads of really big dead spiders around the outside of my house. Is it just dead spider season, or am I being left offerings? The birds aren't touching them.
