Bought fancy beers from my fave Morrison’s after work in anticipation of drinking them whilst listening to a bunch of records that were due to be delivered today. Unfortunately my housemates never answered the door so I’m facing a 9am trip to the post office tomorrow :rage::rage:
Listened to the Kermode & Mayo podcast for the first time, made mushroom stroganoff, did some ironing and ploughing through my fancy beers regardless :metal:t2::metal:t2::metal:t2:

Got the train back to Manchester from London yesterday afternoon, took dog to my mam and dad’s and ate whatever they had, went back to my house, unpacked, repacked, slept, shared the drive back to London with the gf (fucking seven hours crawling man), found the hotel, slept for a bit, walked down to shoreditch, remembered it was Friday night so fuck going for a drink in shoreditch on a Friday night, bought some tins of fosters, went back to the hotel, took trousers off, currently drinking fosters.

To do: trim beard, wedding tomorrow. Think that’s it

I think I’ve devised a system whereby everyone has a chance to talk. Essentially, whoever chooses the book is responsible for coming up with an introductory quote, a series of talking points (I call them “conversational nodes”) and a Final Thought. Also, I’ve made it clear that everyone else is responsible to LISTEN and THINK. You should join my book club!

Evening Friday night Dissers!!

Blah, I’ve had a rubbish few days so went into town for a couple of pints solo and ended up walking home in the rain. Linen jackets and converse really aren’t great wet weather attire…

Congrats @Slicky on the new job! What was Ritchie up to @andyvine?

Good city that. Hope you enjoy/enjoyed (depending on whether you have just arrived or are just leaving).

I also discussed the Handmaid’s Tale at my book club tonight. We’re much less structured than you though and it usually descends into shitchat after 15 minutes.

Got a nice paid meal via work. Am supposed to be working tonight + tomorrow doing setup before the students arrive for the course on Sunday, but there is nothing to set up. We only have 15 students in the first week and got it all done this afternoon, so I am basically being paid for hanging around.

(between - lol)

Great beer though

Went out for work beers and ate an enormous calzone. Managed to offend a colleague with what i thought was a fairly innocuous comment and then got into a beeve with a woman in the street for absolutely no reason. Time for bed i reckon.

What did you say to the work colleague? :grimacing:

Ugh idk it’s a long story. We’d been talking about religion for a while and i said something clumsy about people believing in an eternal paradise and she took offense. It just sounded like a barb but wasnt intended as one at all.
