Travel day! I'm all djudged up for the Lather Games, and today, with an empty docket, I'm travelling with Djunior and Djundjilette to Prague for the next four days. It's the first time I'm in Prague in a family setting, so I'll need to adjust the beer intake from the usual level to an appropriate one ๐
A light apple-scented shave felt right for this already scorching hot summer day.
The sacrifices we make for our families!๐
Thanks for another year of djudging. I can tell from listening to the podcasts that there's work involved so the rest of us can have a good time.
It's not that bad, and it's good to hear you were having a good time!
Definitely! I play my own game that is not particularly focused on points.
Have a good trip!
Thanks!
