That's why I don't want one. Fabric gets worn down way faster and it uses lots of power.

Modern ones are very energy efficient.

I miss the time before they wanted to bastardise every TV series there was for the big screen.

2 weeks of the flu. I would like to say i am better than i was but not sure that is true.
Not quite on the ball at work either
Customer escalation resolution not as tight as it normally is. Fumbling things a little. No one is complaining and customers still happy but i know it should be better and it should have been quicker and it matters for some reason. Why the fuck that is, i don't know. Same with SME/supervisor duties. Not quite up to scratch. Forgetting small things. Same deal.
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

You know it's winter when the skin around your nails starts to crack and bleed.

Yes, it's happening to my thumb. Never had it before.

Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.

I started back at the gym on the weekend, both days. Feeling too old, a few sets of moderate weights builds up the strength and the testosterone and makes you feel younger.

One additional upside is that when I'm getting a decent amount of exercise I don't feel the cold at all. I don't feel the cold much anyway, but this morning I was regretting the light jacket I was wearing.

Somehow I've dodged the various flu and cold bugs going around, while everyone around me has suffered (the guy opposite me at work has been really sick 3 times already this winter). I almost came down with something but I popped a couple of Codrals (cold and flu tablet) and it was gone within a day or so.

Well done with the gym.

I caught a virus from where I volunteer. Really I'm not surprised. Started with a terrible sore throat. That's gone but I now have a chesty cough. I'm to take Kayleigh to the doctor later this afternoon but I'm not going in because I'd be made to wear a mask. So I'll sit in the car and cough there while I'm reading a book.

I haven't been sick since 2012.

WOW!!! 7 years!!!

I know people who are constantly sick for about half the year. The guy opposite me at work is a bit like that, he reckons he is on his 3rd illness of the winter (cold/flu) but it all kind of blends in together. The joys of living in an international city with lots of contagious bugs flying in from all over the world.

Yeah I was starting to think I was impervious to illness. But volunteering at the Salvos was most likely where I picked the bug up. The boss had a cold and I touched countless items and clothing that may have been handled by a person who was contagious.

My cough is terrible, full of phlegm. But at least that's all I have, no fever and no other symptoms.

I'm hoping being at the Salvos will eventually strengthen my immune system!

I'm volunteering tomorrow and I think I may be sent home. My cough is more like a loud bark now and that won't appeal to customers.
