    It's worse than that Jim, it's in the self same order as when it was transmitted on Quest on a Saturday morning 3 or 4 weeks ago. .

      I'd forgotten, or not realised, that qntm is also responsible for Absurdle, a Wordle variant in which the target word changes depending on your guesses while remaining consistent with the results for previous guesses, and Hatetris, a Tetris variant in which the next piece is always the worst piece for the current state of the game
      There is no Antimimetics Division is a wonderful work of horror. I've read the redacted bits.

      Thanks for the tip on Absurdly. I'm already doing quordle and octordle daily....

      Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

        Pity there isn't a Sweardle, I'd be good at that.

            So DMAX is just Quest on delay, like +1 but +573 or something

              The zingy soup turned out very well; just had a bowl accompanied by a thick crust of wholemeal

              I must remember to make the bed at some point

                It's all Discovery crapola no matter what the channel is called.

                In other other news, Wheeler Dealers returns to Quest at 18:00 on Tuesday, and the Saturday back to backs are back next Saturday.

                  Yes, I'd gathered that from the amount of cross-channel promotion they engage in. "Enjoy watching carburettors being tuned? Then you'll love this show about Bigfoot!"

                  The bed has been made, but gradually as I realised there's no need to do it all at once when I can just do a bit during a commercial break in a programme about the Battle of Britain, then go back and do the next bit in the next break

                  I've taken the precaution of joining the two parts of the duvet together to create the SuperDuvet. Possibly unnecessary as the weather forecast continues to be extremely mild for the time of year, but it saves the hassle of doing it when things take an unpredicted turn for the worse

                    PS Damn! Couldn't do it. Thought I might be good at something.

                      Om.

                      While on the 5th of April 2019 I was looking forward to only working 3 more days in April, with May being the last month of work.
