      tonight's dinner was breaded haddock, chips and peas, courtesy of the good captain and my old auntie.

      with salt and proper, manly, HP sauce.

        Fish curry. Salmon, cod, prawns.

        No sauce. If it had been it would have been red.....

          It all went to the fecking dump & that's that.

          There's at least one other monitor that's likely to do the same thing shortly.

          Tea/dinner as predicted was chili con carne which was rather more flavoursome than the previous attempt having had more or less every herb in the cupboard chucked in at random intervals.

          The beans were BBE 2015, while the tomatoes were BBE 2011, these being the last such items bequeathed by Strangelove Mater.

          Sweet was yet more stewed blackberries and custard which was excellent if a bit pippy.

          Televisual entertainment was provided by half an ep of NCIS, after which a curiosity known as "Drive Angry (2011)" with Nick Cage turned up.

          It was totally crazy but enjoyable.

            I needed to make up for last night's almost total lack of sleep, so I decided to have a little nap. "Just a couple of hours" I thought, at around 4pm…

            And yes, here we are, and I've just woken up

            Ah well, I'll go to the Chinese tomorrow. It'll give her something to talk about

              Most probably unreliable customers who don't turn up on The Right Day.

              Hope you're feeling betterer.

                On the umpteenth attempt, after tinkering with many things, I got the feature update 1903 installed! Hurrah.

                Laptop lives for another week or two until something else microshaft deems essential makes me want to chuck it out the window.

                  Yes, thanks - suffering more from the effects of the nap than the lurgy now, I think. There's a reason I don't take naps, and it's that I always feel worse afterwards

                  In lieu of the Chinese, dinner has been ribeye steak, chips, fried onion, and beans. Extremely nice, it was

                  Now to try to get myself tired enough to go back to sleep by drinking beer and watching telly

                    The things that are tinkered with always turn out to be the things that have to be untinkered for the next one to work

                      do it properly
