It’s a very dark, rich purple. Big fan Geesey.

Kallgeese · 2016-12-12T13:24:24.421Z

It is? Sweet. Have never really considered it before but now I’m happy with what I’ve got.

People would pay literally tens of pounds* for a headboard that sweet man.

*I don’t know how much headboards cost.

Kallgeese · 2016-12-12T13:31:27.841Z

That could lead me down a wormhole of checking how much headboards cost but I shall not fall into that trap!

Just had someone call me about some work and I sounded like Barry White on the phone. This cold has done a number on my throat.

You have the king of headboards already my friend, looking at others would be a tragic waste of your time.

My daughter’s Paw Patrol obsession has given way to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Initially I thought this was better and little more subversive…but then they introduced the really racist zebra character.

Anyway, the theme tune is now LODGED in my head.

First day back after 9 days off. Urgh. 182 emails, deleted most of them. Winner.

Epimer · 2016-12-12T15:03:23.475Z

It’s All The Small Things that get you through the day, isn’t it.

shucks · 2016-12-12T15:11:50.490Z

Always. As long as they Don’t Leave Me, I’ll be Enthused, but I am Feeling This Reckless Abandon at the moment. Ah, Dammit, another email.

Someone told me they had a backstage tour tonight of a big venue here, I said ‘Who is playing?’ they said ‘No-body but Rod Stewart is on tomorrow’ and i said 'Well I guess tonight is NOT THE NIGHT!!!"

(they never got it)

I recently finally managed to find a definitive explanation of these handclap things

Slate Magazine

Using the Clap Emoji for Emphasis Is Really Annoying. Where Does It Come From?

Sometimes I click over to Twitter and feel great because everyone seems to be clapping for me. I haven’t even done anything! But there’s all this appla ...

Turns out they were pretty much what I assumed, at least.

Emojis are tough for old white men.

It’s like a Lego Pirate hat!
