Little did I know in the 70s that I would be stopping off at a garage to pick up chocolate Croissants for breakfast at the office one day. 🥐

ROTFLMAO The BBC is getting really desperate now!

I just can't shift this stupid cough!

No breakfast this morning. I'm starving, and all I have in my desk drawer is a pot noodle. 🥺

Are people really that stupid? When we all watched that video a while back of a man kicking a robot mule and the thing desperately trying to right itself, did you not stop and say to yourself, "Hang on, all that needs is a gun and a camera!"

I am back on the Statins, so surely I can go back on these?

Great! The stupid plastic frame of my glasses has broken. I tried some of that rubbish Gorilla glue and now have glue all over the lens. I can tell how the day is going to pan out.

It gives me a great sense of 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 to hear that staff returning to the office from the protective bubble of working from home or Furlough are all coming down with coughs and colds that refuse to go away now that we're all back to breathing one another's air. 🤧 🤒

We need a new hoover at #CastleCannon the missus says there's no way we're spending £599 on Hoover "But its got spinning floor cleaning pads bubb!"

Price of #Hive must be dropping? I see my account is no longer worth over $2000.00

Currently watching Bad Sports on Netflix. I bet he did lock that referee in?

Oh, mighty Pond Gods, help me get through today because I'm not feeling the milk of human kindness so far.

When there's a successful solution, EVERYONE wants to get involved; run with it; cover themselves in glory.

The moment there's a problem with the solution, suddenly it becomes one person's sole responsibility.

Well, there's a first (For me.) my Keyboard at work has died! I spent ages scratting around trying to find batteries, but after two swap-outs, I came to the conclusion the Keyboard is dead; it has ceased to be; it is an ex keyboard.

First thoughts regards Windows 11?
I'm still thinking.

Like most OS upgrades, it's pretty underwhelming for the end-user unless there's sexy new icons or the start menu is moved to the top right corner or file explorer has an overhaul. just like Linux or any other OS for that matter, all the work is 'under the hood' on Windows 11

Taking the plunge at work #Windows11

Broken one of my golden rules and unsubscribed from a couple of shops/organisations. You should NEVER unsubscribe; instead, put the sender on a junk list or send them to /dev/null because once you unsubscribe, you're confirming they have the correct address and that a human interacts with it.

It just shows how dominant Facebook is in our lives when an outage causes almost worldwide panic.

They need to do away with the calorie charts on food and just put "You should only eat two of these today!" on the packaging instead. I've nearly finished these.

One of the laziest scammers I've seen in a long time.

So the TV said something about Google no longer supporting its Movie app and promptly deleted it. I can download the Movies I bought from Google, but they're in some fooked up format that means they can only be played on an Android device. I wish I'd bought DVD's from Amazon now because I bet Google is going to stop its Movie service soon, and I'll lose all my purchases.

Ooh! Hello, thunder.

So, if it happens in the UK, it's Brexit, but if it happens in Europe, it's just logistics.

I am reworking an old favourite song for all those people putting petrol in water bottles.

♫ ♪ "Bullrings burning, Bullrings, fetch the engine, fetch the engine, FIRE! FIRE! FIRE! FIRE! Pour on water, pour on water." ♬ ♩

My cold has gone, so why are my nostrils continually filling with two gallons of sticky yellow snot mucus?

!Friendica Support Hi, I upgraded via git yesterday to the latest version. Friendica is working, but I cannot access the admin page; the browser says it does not exist.

I've looked in the root directory where the URL points, and there is no admin folder or file. This was working before I upgraded, by the way. Any thoughts or ideas?

Thanks

There is no truth in the rumour that Tesla drivers are hanging around petrol stations laughing their bollocks off.

Upgraded #friendica I can log in. It looks like it's working, but the Admin page is gone or no longer accessible? @Alan I may have to go to the "Fuck Off." support service?

It's one of those 'Floating around' days today. People keep hovering around outside my door. "If the keyboard is clicking then I'm doing something innit!"

Hmm? #friendica has an update. I'm not well enough. 🤒 🤧 ~friendica

Walked Charlie and when I bent over in the porch to take my trainers off my nose dripped all over the floor! 🤢🤧🤮

Here we go. EVERYONE is panic buying fuel around here.
