I have a few sets of spare towels. 1 set are old and used for drying the dog and the odd water spill etc. 1 set are ornamental, new, never been used but are still functional. 1 set are new Sheridan towels that may have come from a fancy hotel.

Which ones do I keep for emergencies and/or drying the dog and which ones do I donate?

Today I am listening to a vintage LP of "Adventures with Skippy the bush kangaroo" , here's YT of it

it's so different to the tv series, this is written for radio and has Skippy's origin story https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvxKHoAJeMI

maybe growing up watching Skippy is what makes me enraged when I see people illegally fishing, ostensibly with no consequences

What the hell bro. There two of the same number trams one after the other. I decided to get on the second one because way more empty. Second tram driver signalling at me like crazy to get on the first one instead?? Why. They still stopped and let me on but why you gotta be like that

The second one is a body double

I was expecting you to point out that the second one is not for those of this world...

I've taken the old work laptop home and I thought I'd try Bazzite on it. Apparently Fedora based distros don't play well with Dell so if I still can't get it to work I might try PopOS instead. Failing that, Mint Debian edition.

Have you tried running Blorkfoot with a third party Fuggleslap interface?

Yeah I've got no idea what you're talking about ๐Ÿ˜
