    Lane swimming, there are signs at both ends of the lane to swim in a clockwise direction NOT straight there and back on the same side! 🤬

    Amazon Prime Video, just noticed that the ScFi series Caprica was available to watch. Tried to watch it and the first two pilot episodes aren't available in my area!

    I don't want to start at episode 3!

    Wake me up when it's all over.

    Don't jump to episode 3 iirc the pilots were intriguing but they couldn't sustain the premise.

    I have watched it before being a BSG fan from the original series to the new(er) one.

    So instead I'm just downloading the whole series ;-)

    I've probably got the DVD's somewhere but it will be quicker to download the series than find the DVD's :-(

    Edit>btw BSG original series is on Prime.

    Wake me up when it's all over.

    Was out. Paying fûck all mind to the weather forecast. Always keep a raincoat in the bag but I’d taken it out to repair a small cut in it, did that a week ago and overlooked putting it back…and was stupidly only equipped with a light summery casual jacket with no hood to make my way through an absolute deluge. Yep, didnt need that…

    Elisabeth Moss in Handmaid's tale. Ridiculous storylines with implausible plots and over dramatic acting. Lots of low mumbling accompanied by sickly sentimental music, all while we're being bombarded with far too many close up shots of June Osborne's eyes.

    She was brilliant in Mad Men though.

    She directs it, so it really is all about her. It should really be called "the adventures of June" at this stage.

    It's a shame as there are other characters that could be nicely developed as the storylines are actually good.....but Jesus I know that woman's face better than my own.

    The search function if you are looking for a thread is pants. I tried inverted commas but no joy. Is there some trick to make it easier to use?

    Current government crying the poor mouth when funding is needed for abc. Yet when xyz needs funding they can simply magic up a huge wedge of cash to throw at it.

    Watched Home and Away the other evening with the missus for the laugh - hadn't seen it in years. The first thing that got me was the depressing incidental music they have during some scenes for dramatic effect…..usually some warbler singing some miserable tune accompanied by piano or guitar. Jesus, it's only 6.30pm in the evening and they have me feeling suicidal….

    The "funny" thing is that when you search from a mobile the right responses flash up for a second before vanishing behind a sea of irrelevance.

    Woken up by my neighbours making another colossal racket leaving out their bin. Mine was out just before 9 pm as I’m sure was everyone else’s.

    Masters degrees and academic achievements galore apparently. Or so we have been advised by her family member.. Cop on, consideration or any level of social intelligence.. ZERO ❌

    Leaf blowers. Make a load of noise and seem to be useless, but give the impression work is being done. Why not a brush and/or a rake ? I guess that won't work on gravel.

    Anyway, kind of weird to see them in use now. Although I do see a leaves down in places from birch trees. Maybe not enough rain.

    I totally empathise. I was feeling like that on Monday and I absolutely hate it when it comes on me. I don’t like being that person.

    The behaviour of the international students / visitors in the shop. Those in front of me in the Q beckoning their mates to join them by Q skipping me and others which they do. Like little Diego is going to break down in balls of tears not standing beside his mate Antonio in the Q, or is he just frightened that his bar of precious Aero will melt before he gets to eat it?

    They are about 15/16 and have adult chaperones in bright red jackets ‘minding’ them. But they don’t seem to mind them behaving like little ignorant twats as they stand in silence watching this mass skip unfold. Errrr

    The latest accessory for older home owners (already wedded to their lawnmowers) allergic to the sight of fallen leaves anywhere on their property.
