If everything isn't black and white, I say, 'Why the hell not?'
John Wayne (My guru, not to be confused with my beloved prophet Jeremy Clarkson) -
I'd be fined if I went to Sainsburys since it's in Swanea and thusly out of bounds.
The afternoon, overcast though it was, was occupied with bagging up more Marley tiles, this time with the older thicker stronger black bin bags of yore.
Then it was more potching about in the garden pulling up weeds and such like.
The greenhouse is now even fuller of drying off weeds than previously.
I look forward with eager anticipation to the next bonfire, there now being sufficient vanities to keep it going for quite a while.
Tea (once I've recovered from the afternoon's exertions): Tesco non chunky breaded haddock, more stewed pears, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment: TBD, possibly "Lost in La Mancha".Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; 16 October 2020, 15:59.When the fun stops, STOP.Comment

Turns out that without warning me the agent has put me into another situation with multiple parties in a chain. I did my best poker face when they mentioned the name of the ConsultancyCo in the chain and not the agency.
Parts of "Slough" can be nice, give me a shout if you get there, I will give you the tour.
I live near Slough.
well done with the interview.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Mundane laundry is on, and indeed nearly done
And the concoction with the shin of beef is made, and turned out really well. It's cooling now, as its ultimate destiny awaits it this eveningComment

Though the office building got knocked down the other year, and there isn't really much else actually in Slough, other than the roundabout. In fact, it should probably just be "The Office Title Sequence" tourComment
