        I want to finish it this evening as it's my brother's, so I can return it to him tomorrow. He in turn bought it off a good friend of his when he was a student at Oxford back in the late 1970s, and said friend was killed in a crash on the M4 last year, so I think it will now have a certain sentimental value for him. The friend had written in it his name and the date he originally bought it: 5/4/78.
        Finished!

        Early(ish) start tomorrow as I'm heading south for Easter Sunday dinner with the rest of the family. But I think there's time for a film first.

          The film turned out to be Aftermath (2017), based extremely loosely on the events surrounding the 2002 Uberlingen mid-air collision; and by loosely, I mean taking events that occurred entirely in Russia, Germany, and Switzerland and transferring them to Columbus, Ohio, because America

          And it's an unremittingly bleak affair, which moves at a glacial pace too. Only watch this one if total downers are your thing

          Goodnight all

            osteorenalapathy loooked like a made up word but Googled anyway. Only shows your CUK mentions, including today's. How does CUK stuff always show up on Google almost immediately? Takes weeks for SEO changes I make to my crappy little website to be visible.

            Dunno, maybe it's the competition. I should use made up words on my website, I bet redfloshwowdefoncake would come up number 1 on any searches! Never see that simple tip in SEO guides.

              On slightly more personal note, I'm going through another period of extreme knackeredness and arthritis seems worse. Maybe I caught osteorenalapathy off you from using CUK.

              Wonder if people ever catch STD's from viewing porn sites? You can't rule out the idea that bacteria may adapt to technology.

                  I think I looked at the cover of that and passed.

                  Morning.

                  Dry.

                  Sunny.

                  Hot side of hot.

                  Polleny.

                  Today's Antihistamine seems to be helping a bit.

                  Shops shut, so no Morrisons or Tesco trip today.

                  Whatever shall I do with the time?

                  Oh, I know.

                  Two trips down the dump.
