@bookmews Surely - cheesey beans on toast...dippy egg and soldiers??

Home sick for the day with flu like symptoms (tested for covid but neg so far). Want something comforting for dinner as haven't been able to eat yet today, but I can't decide what. Don't really want soup but that's about as far as I've got.

Busy week for me.... Sophie Ellis-Bextor tomorrow Billy Bragg on Wednesday Charlatans on Thursday.... And then RQ with the incomparable @JimjimTheGrim on Saturday....

@JimjimTheGrim @Chaosium_Inc @Dragonmeet @PaulFricker @CogsandCakes @mikemason @moonbroth @JeffRic33220655 @OrlanthiFool @ICooper @DS_at_Chaosium 'No Mike, you have to pay like everyone else...no staff discount here!'

@Chaosium_Inc @Dragonmeet @PaulFricker @CogsandCakes @mikemason @moonbroth @JeffRic33220655 @OrlanthiFool @ICooper @DS_at_Chaosium Presumably @PaulFricker is explaining horror gaming to the new punter on the right of the photo 😉

A very busy @Dragonmeet is over for another year - it was great to see so many Chaosium friends and fans, old and new!

@davorg 4. Sign up for the artist's mailing-lists - you often get access to presale that way.

A friend asked for advice on getting gig tickets: 1. Like old bands who no-one else wants to see 2. Be a member of places like the Southbank and Barbican, so you get early access 3. If you buy a lot of tickets, people like Ticketmaster will often give you access to a presale

@davepaters Basically - people are poorly educated around almost everything to do with finance - this means that the wool is easily pulled over their eyes - this suits many people in power.

@davepaters Cummings is very odd - he is a loathsome individual and yet many of his insights are bang on the money - the implementation is awful in general. Also this idea - that they could put Johnson in and control him - so misguided!!

@jessphillips Well, after today's successful media round that Truss did on behalf of the Labour Party, I'm sure that 21% is now undecided.

I'm genuinely speechless

Latest YouGov poll...

@Son_of_Albion @TheTweedmeister @dampscot @gspearing @NarrativeEscape @_AndyHemming @OldScouserRPing @DissectingWrlds 61?? Never...

@TheTweedmeister @dampscot @gspearing @NarrativeEscape @_AndyHemming @OldScouserRPing @DissectingWrlds I ought to add, I am 61 in March and as of January 2023 only have a year left on the mortgage and a reasonable amount of equity in the property so it's a reasonable risk 🤞

@sueperkins Capsizing the Canoe?

What’s the opposite of ‘steadying the ship’?

@TheTweedmeister You are Millwall, no-one likes you but you don't care. Cause trouble.

@TheTweedmeister You are a goblin, do whatever goblins do. Just don't get caught by the trolls!

@Asako_Soh @HPDemonSamurai Won't go in the manifesto but was interesting that the big unions mostly got behind it...

@HPDemonSamurai Yes - and Labour conference voted for PR

Is Truss still a Lib Dem and a sleeper agent??

@dracowie @Sam0Vail @filmfan68 Disappointed that you've not considered Close Encounters of the Turd Kind... A giant alien shit is heading towards earth, frozen by the chill of deep space!

Thanks to @dracowie’s insistence, I’ve created a Pendragon: Space character sheet. Any comments or improvements please let me know. Pendragon Space.drive.google.com/file/d/1YnN5Y6…

@Tess_drinks_tea @spookshow71 Indeed - they now have popular bands that normal people have heard of! Now I might have seen a lot of the bands on that bill - but I'm not going to say many have gone on to great things!!

@K_0 @HPDemonSamurai Unfortunately it seems that the world of film is full of creeps! Many of my favourite films and TV shows are made by or star creeps...it's flipping annoying! Why can't people be nice!!

Roast Potato related injury!! The things I do for love!!

@OldScouserRPing @JimjimTheGrim @Son_of_Albion Surely @OldScouserRPing's games have enough lamentations in without adding laminations as well??

"Makes noises of extreme displeasure and frustration" Bugger, my laminator has ceased to work, so OBAWS preparation is stalled 😡 Heads reluctantly to the Bezos Bazaar #thiswillnotdo

@K_0 Half expecting to see Yoda pop up!!

Work...I don't check emails etc. This is one of the ways that I'm managing my health and maintaining a sensible relationship with my work.

I go into the office two days a week now, this means - the night before - I pack my laptop ready for work, and then it stays at work in my locker overnight and then I bring it home but don't unpack it until the following morning. Three nights a week at least, I don't login to
