Somehow according to my medical chart I’m not allowed paracetamol today, but I am allowed morphine. Seems a bit all-or-nothing. I’ve only got mild stomachs cramps. 🤷‍♂️

Good footballing today ladies. So glad we avoided penalties! ⚽️ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Cost of living crisis just got real

Woke up in the middle of the night in our holiday cottage and still half dreaming I whispered to Amy: “We’re not alone in the house. There’s someone in the living room. He’s a defender. His name is Gary Brimstone.” … so that wasn’t creepy at all.

The heatwave has really done a number on our chocolate stash. To be fair, Christmas and Easter chocolate shouldn’t still be hanging around in July. At least now there’s a good reason to bin it.

bad news: our Nespresso machine broke. good news: the replacement we bought is better.

That’s it! The heatwave has officially peaked here in Leamington at 38C 🥵 . Temp starting to drop now, should be 10 degrees cooler by 8pm and a full 20 degrees by 4am. Hoping for a decent night’s sleep! 😴

I thought petrol prices were bad, but £50m for a 5 minute car charge is Ebene worse!

Bit late now isn’t it. It’s not like he’s going to get assassinated twice.

Genuinely thought this was a parody at first. Remind me never to eat at a Hilton youtu.be/PpKEVha7H_8

Lovely picture in my hospital room. Although I’m curious what’s in the hidden half? Or is it modern art that’s meant to be like that? Frame is glued to the wall so it shall remain a mystery!

@Jase_MK Turns out that yes they do charge, and also they only delivered one pan but have charged us for four. Sigh.

@deltaflux Don't Sainsburys not charge you for the substituted items? Although, even so, not sure you'd want 4 saute pans.

Weirdest supermarket substitution ever? Instead of £10 sauté pan Sainsbury’s are sending us 4 £20 sauté pans.

Also, instead of pepperoni pizza we’re getting a cheese pizza and a pack of pepperoni (which makes more sense than 4 pans!)

@davidspringate I think Amy just took pity on me tbh. I think I was less popular this morning when I decided to take a duvet day and she had to go to work!

@deltaflux I bet you were popular! 🤣

Left my glasses at home and had to get an Uber home and back to the office again because I couldn't read anything. How's your day going? 🤣

Why @MicrosoftTeams, why? Who benefits from this arbitrary limit?

Spotted this ‘Test Cup’ in the Wilko sandwich fridge. What’s it for?! 🤷‍♂️

Everything Everywhere All At Once was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great movie, 2 hours of joyous craziness. Hard to describe, but imagine a kung-fu action movie crossed with The Mighty Boosh or Monty Python.

I don’t mean to brag, but my new passport application only took 2 weeks.
