Going to Poland this afternoon to spend time with a load of Ukrainians.
Thankfully they all speak English because I wouldn’t know where to start with two languages at once. Especially the one that writes weirdly too.
I’ve got “hello” and “thank you” in each one and that’ll have to do!

There’s a trend in UK detective shows (Luther, Annika etc.) whereby the main characters have fairly beaten up old 80s/90s cars and I am absolutely here for it.
Unrelated: I really want an old Saab 900.

Hypothetically, if someone wanted to move to a country that wasn't angry all the time or full of absolute cunts and people with no ambition, where might they go?

Woke up just now and Mrs Rich said “ I want to sleep so don’t make any human noises.”
So I’m lying here very quietly.
However, strictly speaking, if I barked like a really loud dog I wouldn’t be in breach of contract would I?

Had a belting day doing a long-planned workshop for a client. About 50 people in all so it was a LOT!
Home now so I'll totally crash in another hour or so. Endorphins only carry you so far.

I've just watched a video of a man hand-making bespoke jeans and worker jackets. One pair or jacket at a time. Beautifully.
And now I know what I want to do with the rest of my life.

One of my clients is trying (via their outsourced IT support, of COURSE) to share a folder on SharePoint so that I can upload some stuff.
What a jumbled fucking mess. I could share my Google Drive folder containing the requisite documents with them in seconds.
MS Office is shit.

Right I've muted that guy's name. I'll miss out on some Star Trek content but it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.

The big car, AKA The Merc, AKA Roland is going in for some TLC today.
It needed a few jobs doing and an MOT, but when the rear silencer fell off on the M1 last week that kinda clinched it.
Sounds like a Spitfire at the moment though!

I'm going to Poland* for work next week.
Have planned my route to the German border just in case (it's not far). What times we live in.
*Most of my colleagues there are Ukrainian and are utterly sick of this shit.

With thanks to @kanemajor.net, I've been bingeing this album for the last day and it it terrific!
Don't know how I've never heard it before, but finding new (old) music like this is Bluesky at its best.

Thank heavens for the mute function. When certain stuff gets right on my tits or wears very thin (as it is now), it's a tonic.

Finished watching Hostage on Netflix last night.
One word: Weak.
It's as though the series is set in a future where the entire UK government has no security protection whatsoever.
Plot holes so big you could drive a bus through them (without touching the sides).

It's great having a small list pinned as my main feed. Much more peaceful than the general "fire hose" feed.
But it misses posts out. Usually picture ones.
If I click the actual list they are there, so if I'm only noticing your pictures two days late, that'll be why.

Lunar eclipse appaz.
Do flat earth pricks never wonder why eclipses are always circular (or partially so) like this?
If they were right, occasionally an eclipse would look like a slice through the middle of the moon. Like Canadian people's heads on South Park.
