      Half a pound of sausages, three ounces of tripe, all covered in tomato sauce from the layout

  2. The lamps are going out all over Europe, we shall not see them lit again in our life-time.

      It is said that "Work expands to fill the time available" and space too!

      Captain Kernow

  9. Why oh why did I think tonight would be a good night to start shredding old school paperwork!?

    1. Captain Kernow

      Captain Kernow

      Because you had nothing better to do and a brand new shredder in front of you, beckoning suggestively?

    3. Brinkly

      Unfortunately the shredder isn't new. Sad look. I do miss living in a house with a wood burner as I could burn paper work, far more fun!

  10. You can never have enough laptop charger cables in your life!
