Where I come from, we played It. Pretty sure that was the south, even south of Thames.

North of the Thames. This means I can claim I moved from South to North.

In actuality the line is somewhere above Nottingham but below Stoke.

Took a while to settle on our cat's name.

First of all I tried Linux commands (sudo was the one that stuck for a while, given how the cat dominated the dog.)

That fell out of favour though, and then we had kids and needed a proper name for her.

And then they printed a Magic Card called Generous Stray:

Reminded me so much of my cat, it had to be done. Therefore:

Genny.

Kids can say it - yes. Sounds normal - yes. Cat doesn't respond to it - of course. Really weird story - well, I think so.

My wife just called the dog Bella by the way, perhaps she should name the next cat.

Ah the Gatekeeper has been found.

Now, we search for the Keymaster.

I recommend Kaon's Wonderland (novel).

They literally build a solar panel that blocks the sun, so they can charge people for the heat and light.

Only place I use cash for is the Fish and Chip shop. They did have contactless during covid, but the transaction fees from the bank are a big % if most of your custom is small orders, so they bite those for online orders and it's cash only in the shop.

Hell, half the trousers I buy come with a belt. (It's a problem for vegan trouser-customers actually, as many of the free belts are crappy cheap leather, meaning you can't buy the otherwise cruelty free trousers.)

Interesting. I will watch out for that.

Generally, it gets better or worse very slowly for me, now that I'm on Loratadine all year. (Used to miss the start of the season and start taking too late, and it would take a month to calm down). So its a day or more after we get rain that the sneezes drop off.

TIL they never had a year 0. So the whole damn calendar is an off by one error 🤯

Thought I still had to head back to reddit for the Triathlon threads, but here we are.

Ctrl+R

Then type any part of the command (filename, search string, etc)

Ctrl+R again to cycle through the matches.

The rain is great for us Hayfever sufferers. The pollen was really obnoxious in June.
