      I had to pay rent as soon as I got a job. So that was about 19 after I finished college.

        I had to go in the end as I couldn’t get anything else done for alternately thinking “Should I go today or leave it to tomorrow?” and “I mustn’t forget {thing} like I did the last three times I went”

          Tea: chili con carne with rice. Didn't seem as fiery as last time.

          Maybe it really is me.

          1.05 pints of good Glengettie tea.

          I suspect that the evening's entertainment is likely to be "The Wrath of Khan", a chap who seems to be easy to irritate.

            HWMBO has been soaking beans and stewing them with a variety of pork based products for most of the day. The result is a very delicious concoction that will keep us trumping nicely.

            He made enough to feed a small army for a goodly while. I did wonder if a kilo of cannelinni beans was a bit much for two of us.

            Yesterday he did the prep by butchering a duck, confit the legs, roasted off the crown, made stock, made a sauce, and other stuff.

            Having very much enjoyed Parasite on Sunday, we are now watching Snowpiercer (2013) - IMDb.

                dinner, as the perfect foil to LM's haute cuisine, has been a gammon steak, fried egg, chips and peas.
                very nice.
                and even more rioja.
                watching lewis.
                overlaps with death in paradise though, bugger.

                i've accepted the permie consultancy gig too.
                i find retirement bores me witless.

                    go for it.

                    charge them rent and pop it in a high interest account so you can give it back when they get married etc..

                      tonight beef stew + a nice cabernet.

                      Finished watching the boy in striped pyjamas which is rather good.

                      and now between qa-ing some extracts am enjoying some Whyte & McKay.
