Found a sterling sliver fork in with a bunch of trash when cleaning out the van

Aha, Lady Weeble has been using the Palace utensils when she has her clandestine picnics with you!  Well, that will soon end.   :evillaugh:

I remember my grandmother counting the silver after my brother's first wedding and going on about those Italians and how they make rings out of silverware :zombiefuck:  She was a strange one at times :laugh:

One of the cable channels is going to show a mini-series on the Gypsies of England.  I'm looking forward to watching it.

She looked at Italians as just one step above Gypsies.   Then again she was born in 1900 and from a close Irish Catholic community.

I was invited to lecture about XML in a few weeks' time. Very cool.

Getting a the car crash settlement settled very soon.

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.

Saw my NAS person (national autistic society) and he said I should be able to resit the exam I missed, will just graduate late

But that doesn't matter as I won't be going to graduation anyway

Only problem is if it will clash with when I go into hospital

We had an afterwork activity--we went pistol shooting on a shooting range and got to try three different firearms (hey, PPK, aren't you proud of me now?) of which one was the magnum 357. Can't remember the others but there was a small-calibre one designed for competitions and one with more bang than the Magnum.

I did reasonably well, considering, and it was a lot of fun.

Interesting meeting this afternoon. Got home with two places to apply for another job. That's a really positive outcome. We've decided to change the approach to get a job too. Kind of detour to make employers less scared to hire someone with a label. Long term thinking though. For now the first action will be applying for those two jobs.
