    He had a tumour under his tongue and in his throat so wasn't able to eat or drink over the past 2 weeks, so we have done what was necessary this afternoon.

    He walked into our home 15 years ago and never left...

    Nick, make sure you don't order chicken or pork this evening [emoji2962]

        <- manly.

        Sorry to hear that.

        It's the kindest thing really.

        Still missing a cat who departed 10 years and 235 day ago.

        Not that I'm counting, like.

          £25/hr for that little lot in London.

          They must be fecking joking.

          There's a similar ad from the same bunch for network stuff at the same rate.

          Things must be hard.

              Lunch was a few beers with some socially distant chums.
              dinner has been the last of the thai chilli lamb.
              and more of that red wine i like.

              ents is more farscape 'cos freeview's crap, and i can't find anything on netflix (as usual).

              oh, and that little bog dwelling troll is being particularly irksome, as is his wont.
