    Telly tonight was Manhunt on C4, with Manchester plod looking for a bunch of guys who kidnapped a bloke. It's good, if you like that kind of thing

    Then the evening reading was Colditz: Prisoners of the Castle by Ben Macintyre

    And there's been mucking around with SpriteKit and GameplayKit stuff, mainly figuring out some nonsense where stuff kept vanishing because when a method was called from a closure there was only a weak reference to it, or some such nonsense

    Goodnight all

    Similar issues here. I'd put it in the microwave on defrost for a little while, which didn't seem to do much. Then I stuck it in the oven. After half an hour in there, it was sizzling around the edges, but cutting it in two revealed that the centre was only just thawed, so it ended up having another fifteen or twenty minutes

    End of an era. But to be fair, it was mainly vetran posting very occasionally amusing stuff.

    The joke threads still going. I got a book of dad jokes for Christmas...
