I know, Dave's mum told me.

That's certainly what Dave's mam says.

Maybe he's eager to get back so this doesn't happen:

I think this probably belongs here rather than in the Holidays thread, so: As part of this, I'm going to focus on the Northumberland coast and Newcastle itself during our limited time in the north-east, but we should have time to stop off and do something along Hadrian's Wall on the drive down/across from Arran. What's best for a couple of hours to give a visitor the general impression? Housesteads springs to mind, but it's been years - let's be honest, decades - since I've done any of it, so I don't really know my Vindolanda from my elbow.

I can't imagine anyone being interested in a pastime revolving around a semi-arbitrary points-giving system.

This resentment can only be because there was no public acknowledgement of essembeeofsunderland essembeeofsunderland's passing.

Disproportionately happy to be able to exercise again after two months of stomach bug and Achilles tendon misery. Taking it relatively easy on the feet (though a trot around parkrun at the weekend seems to have produced no ill effects), but I've signed back up to the gym - one that's so budget it's even actually called Budget Gym - so hopefully can push on a bit from here. Don't mind Sundays as much, but midweek weddings (that you're inviting lots of people to)? Wilfully selfish behaviour.

You've not watched much football, have you?

They are, and slightly cheaper at the supermarkets than they used to be too (thank you, 2-for-£1 offers at pound shops). Brown basmati rice, 50p a packet, done in 90 seconds? Aye, I'll take that. #domesticgoddess

Efficient player. Works the channels.

Hm. It's almost as if rolling out Blair and his cronies to warn against Corbyn is backfiring for some reason...

Piddle Detectors.

GOAL DMEMBA

You mean fried beans.

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but...

I hear Fred Durst rates him highly.

When will YOU admit that YOUR use of the space bar is wrong?

Never use it except when I'm cooking every meal from (Yes, CT, it really exists; no, CT, your family won't thank you if you do)
