Strawberry milk is surprisingly excellent in tea. This sounds like it would be wrong, but it’s actually correct

Also, why is it so hard to buy rubbishy American-style vanilla coffee here? I know it’s not good coffee per se, but it’s good vanilla coffee.

I don’t think the time of day is going to be the problem there!

[kermitwormit]

Ooooh, good to know!!

[meowington]

Would anyone be surprised to know that the people who own Sarson’s also own Branston?

No wonder I love that pickle water so much

[Epimer]

Dunno why you’d assume Enid is a retiree, I know her personally and she’s actually 26 years old.

this is a lie

[froglet]

Well even apart from apparently having a lot of time on her hands and being called enid, you can tell she’s older than about 50 because she didn’t have a camera to hand. The last time I didn’t have a camera to hand I was under general anaesthetic.

Today my finger formed the meat in a rapidly assembled, short-lived sandwich between a giant spanner and the thread of an equally giant screw. I hate heat exchangers.

Gonna try the first stage of Tour de Zwift in a bit. Fully expecting a painful, jerky glitchfest.

Life is so exciting it hurts

Was alright yesterday at 5pm, didn’t have any dropouts or glitches. Was 11000 on

[Ella_Megablast]

That’s good. Still, I’m running it on a 2012 iMac so it gets pretty sketchy at times.

Oh hurrah I have loaded the starting pen and it’s already running at roughly 0.3fps

(And I’ve deliberately entered the ride with the least number of competitors)

[frenchtoast]

Oooft eeeesh. Mac here but a super work-provided biggun sorry. Not tried it on a mobile device

[Ella_Megablast]

It’s fine for everyday Zwifting, but struggles with big events. Maybe I should try my Air

[frenchtoast]

Do what I do and let 'em all fuck off up the road and start 3/4 minutes later ^▽^

[Ella_Megablast]

Might be an idea! Saw some people saying that if its glitchy you can quit and use the late meeting function to rejoin and it works better then.

TINTCT

Time it right and just do the last km

[Ella_Megablast]

Glory sprint for the line, yus!

[Scout]

I love how bitter it comes across, like someone is forcing her to update us and she’s absolutely fed up of it

[frenchtoast]

Seems there’s a Chesterton Babble splinter group too. Hehe

[Scout]

Oooo interested in the rest of that passive aggressive sentence in group 2

[frenchtoast]

Further to a delivery of a bread maker (Yodel) earlier, parcelforce have just delivered me a food processor. What’s going on? Both were addressed to me, and I’m the only one with my surname in this house. no invoice or anything

[frenchtoast]

…without the threat of having there comments deleted or being deleted from the group!
