Scary! Got this loud noise and took me a while to locate it. A government emergency warning of fire risk on me phone, not any normal mobile sound. Anyone else get one of these?

Tea has been a gammon steak with fried eggs, chips, and beans

Yes! It went off as I was at the stove frying the eggs, and scared the crap out of me! I thought alarms were going off because the oven was about to explode or something, until I realised what it was

Fire Warning: Place said phone in a bucket of water, it's the Only Way to be Sure.

Tonight’s major motion picture premiere happened to feature one of the stars of last night’s, though I only realised that just now: The Housemaid (2025) in which Sydney Sweeney gets a job in Amanda Seyfried’s wealthy household. This was absolutely bloody excellent, and you should watch it - it’s free with Amazon Prime at the moment, but if I’d paid for it in itself, I would have felt every penny was well spent. No spoilers

And then a rewatch of Project Hail Mary (2026) because it’s worth it

Finally, a bit more of For All Mankind in which the Soviets continue to piss the Americans off by upping the propaganda stakes

Goodnight all

Saw that my old neighbour I do Scrabble with is on Google Street View. I am too, standing outside my house. Anyone else found themselves on it?

Yes. I'm on the way to Going Shopping at the corner of Penydre & Russell Street a number of years ago. Not a pretty sight.
