    That Zeity character was keen on chianti IIRC.

    He liked fava beans too.

      i prefer rioja, but i did a favour for a neighbour and they gave me six bottles of chianti.
      it's a very fine example, i must say, and they were very insistent that i accept it.

      all i did was find a dodgy earth and get their car going.

      edit. i don't eat people.

        Gits at QA seem to require me to jump through some hoops in order to gain access to the online exam. I am not holding out much hope of getting it tomorrow before the exam voucher expires!

        As I know that these online exams can be booked and made available with little notice, I'm mightily vexed.

          Today's major achievement was being first to add the date of Barrington Pheloung's death to his Wikipedia page (and then correcting it a few minutes later)

          Mundane tasks like converting the article to the past tense have now been done by a number of other people.

            This current "abanodoned Engineering" includes

            Sao Domingos Mine - Wikipedia

            In addition I've just discovered there's a wasp's nest in the garage.

            And they seem particularly pissed off this evening, whereas I didn't notice anything earlier.

            Now watching "The Good Place".

                Well, if you would it would help with the overpopulation problem. Go for the retired/ex-contributors who are a drain on resources.
                Or if you have more than 1 child, go for your least favourite.

                  I've never been keen on wasps since I got stung by two of them during a summer student job as a gardener at a hospital for the mentally handicapped, then returned to Leicester and, getting up the following morning, was stung on my big toe by a third which had crawled down inside my slipper

                  Tonight's tea was the remaining leg and wing from the other night's roast chicken, with chips. Second time I've had chicken and chips this week, but it's nice so that's OK. The remaining breast meat is going to be used for baps and such, and the carcase for stock

                      Morning all.

                      CBS.

                      Sunny.

                      21.7 in the living room.

                      I wonder how my wasps are doing in the garage.

                      Cottons are in the WM.
