Gave the lawn a quick mow this arvo... First chance in a long time. Whipped around on level 6 of 8 on the mower heights just because its so long. Still super damp and I managed to get bogged, so had to drag myself out with a combination of star pickets + ratchet straps. Star picket in the ground as an anchor x 2, ratchet x 2.... Ratchet the first until you run out of room on the spool, repeat on the second... Undo the first and hold tension with the second while you reset the first. Just keep swapping between the two and inch it out.

Thought I might change the mower blades before I got stuck in... uhm... yeah I think it might have been a little overdue.

That does not sound fun at all.

Hey do you remember Kwindecent Exposure from Bris sub ? Had a few drinks with him this weekend. I'm about to take him to Wynumm train station. I mentioned you yesterday and straight away he mentioned your dogs.

I remember the username, though I'm pretty bad at remembering other stuff. If they remembered dogs they can't be too bad though! Here's a photo of a puppy just for them. You can also look if you like:

I’m about to take him to Wynumm train station

Is that a euphemism? 😳

I have to work on a car today. I really don't want to. Waiting for the rain to bugger off.

Ok you know when you swipe right on your home screen on your phone and you get news items. I think it might be Google news. Well anyway, when I click on an article I'm rather annoyed by all the damn ads. You have to scroll really carefully so you don't open an ad. Some articles are more ads than article. Jesus !

Well anyway both on there and on my TV I keep seeing ads for the new show called "We Were Liars". I looked into it on IMDb and it sounds pretty piss poor. I certainly won't bother with it.

Oh I watched The Accountant 2 yesterday after re-watching the first one the other day. I thoroughly enjoyed the first one and it was a good thing that I had forgotten just about all of it. The second one however, damn what a mess. Each to their own but nah, a real miss in my opinion.

Watching The Accountant² at the minute, and I think they've buggered up the main character by fully hamming up the autism to the point of satire. It's like Simple Jack at this point. Been Affleck has gone full retard.
