It’s an unfortunate out of order icon. It seems someone will need to shovel a lot of shit to get the toilet going again.

For some reason this made me picture Radagast and Tom Baker’s Dr Who sitting in an olde pub having a pint together; probably discussing which are worse—orcs or Daleks.

I picked up Civ VI a couple of weeks ago for an iPhone. Totally rocks. I also picked up the Gathering Storm DLC and I haven’t even used it yet. Still having fun with the base game.

It amazes me how well it performs on a phone.

I seem to remember watching a movie where the characters gave up trying to make the furniture and instead made a sculpture out of the bits. Would recommend for next time.

Also welcome to NZ where apparently we sometimes have rooves! Although I’m not sure where the f effs off to.

I would go with leg. But it does make me wonder what it would be called if you wear it with one long and one short? Short Leg?

I’m not sure. It’s made up of 40 square blocks. Each block probably takes about 40mins. So, maybe 27-30 hours including doing the frame.

(Although we had an 8 and 11 year old doing blocks too so a bit longer.)

During another school holiday we’ll take it apart and do a different design.

Looks really cool.

I’m trying to decide whether it’s better to travel up or down a DEATHSCALATOR.

I’m thinking I’d feel happier going to my doom going upwards. But then going downwards I reckon I might stand a chance of survival with some sort of desperate dive.

How bizarre! I never came across Wetrix. It must have been a weird designers meeting though.

“You know, Tetris, right? What it’s missing is water, fire…earthquakes!”

“…?!”

“And a rubber ducky!!”

“Ah, now I get it! I like it!”

I played GTA2 whilst only listening to that Cake album.

I feel like this has Meaning of Liff potential. Each walk could get called a town name in NZ.

I have to admit to having never considered what a movie set smells like. That’s a thought that’s not going to go away..

You haven’t wandered on to an art house movie set by mistake?

My favourite Red Dwarf joke is still when the news states that they’ve found the first page of the bible.. 😁

I still catch myself singing the theme tune in winter.

Did you know you can Tiptoe to Worlds End in Hampshire?

(Presumably for tourists who’ve had enough of wallowing in Hampshire.)

I seem unable to read something said in a Scottish accent without hearing the voice of Billy Connolly in my head.

I also wonder if someone in the world is lovingly keeping track of all the body parts used as insults.

I’m not sure what such a hobby would be called—NetherWallowing?

We need more DUBIOUS BOOKSELLERS wandering around wearing old macintosh coats and accosting people.

“Pzzzt… Fancy a dose of comedy? Fresh off the blessed press this one…..It’s a lovely shade of ORANGE. Here, have a sniff!“
