Pretty sure those seasonal nectar app events used to be decent, by making sure you spent a few vouchers you could get several quid's worth of points back? It's now reduced to "why not spend £30 more than usual on your shop to get £1 back, won't that be fun!?!"

This is very much up my alley (missus) and definitely worth a squirt (missus).

Planned to have lunch after my morning meeting but it was super-short and it's now only 10.20am, this could be setting all kinds of dangerous precedents

Happy "some news about your pricing" email month to all who celebrate

Watching Dawn of the Mummy from 1981. Everyone is giving it plenty. But one of those films that opens with 5 minutes of fun history and then, budget spent, hard cuts to the present day. Oh good, New York City!!!

My daffodils have been on the verge of opening for two days now. Turns out plants can edge too

What I always remember when I hear of the band Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs is the time I was queuing to get my wristband at a festival and they arrived, late, for their performance, & the fact that they had to announce the full name of their band to the lady on the gate made them even later.

Love ticket sites that now say "you pay £37 (face value £32)" to appear all transparent and honest, and then you add one ticket and it says "total £42". Love it.

THE ENTIRETY OF THE POLITICAL PRESS IN THE UK FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT WEEK SOLID:

Drinking Putty and reading about megaherbs. There's a daisy out there that over a metre across!

When you think it’s home time but there’s still 40 minutes to go.

Got a seedling come up only 5 days after planting, I am officially speedrunning chives

My lovely new wooden patio furniture has arrived. *stares balefully at the rain whipping on the window*

Learning stuff in the evenings is getting harder as I get older, now I get like an hour before my brain turns smooth. I need more brains!!!

This mulligatawny cupasoup tastes exactly like chip shop curry sauce and I'm definitely okay with that.

Got the whisky out and watching film noir Scandal Sheet from 1952. New York newspaper men, murder, dames.

Having to work on a lot of shared spreadsheets I'm starting to discover just how many maniacs put a blank row/column at the top/left side of every sheet, like some kind of weird-ass comfort blanket. Not the way!!!

Sowed the first seeds of my new gardening era. Just parsley and chives for now, mostly destined for a kitchen windowsill, but soon it's gonna be tomato this, chard that, potato the other.

Fascinated to find out the stats of the offspring of these lads, ngl

This offer is still running but ends soon - if you live in England and want a free HIV test, visit freetesting.hiv

Finally watched Saltburn. My review is this: willy

Heated Chivalry

Got to Beloved Aunt in my Curb s1 rewatch 🤌

My mini greenhouse arrived today. If I sow now I can be eating tomatoes on, what, Friday?

Sun's out yet it's STILL raining. The bleedin' nerve of it!

The actual title for this is "Somebody Suggests Getting A Chippy Tea"

Just watched Who Killed Captain Alex, a Ugandan zero-budget action film with cardboard helicopters, explosions and a VJ riffing a hilariously snippy narration over it. Too good.

Gladiators is on late so catching up with last week's with my tea. I hope @jaycgallagher.bsky.social saw this one, ngl

As of today I am the proud father of 240 litres of multi-purpose compost. Actually scratch that bit, it that makes it sound like I had a massive shit. I just bought some bags ok

The game Mewgenics is very good. CAT FIGHT CAT FIGHT.

Just been playing old ZX Spectrum games Jetpac and Underwurlde on the Evercade console, and on my first goes I got further than I ever got as a child. Makes you think! (Mainly "take that you loser kid".)

Cool s, now in 3d

The hobgoblin is a three-pinter, there I said it

Second-screening the olympics, catching up with the male snowboarders for the, er, sport, yes that's it.

My god stop raining, we get it!

Centrist: *crawls from the burning wreckage of the Labour Party* "Mr Polanski if you want my vote you need to adhere to my terms. They are as follows."

I was going to be unambitious for my first year with a garden, but I have now Started a Spreadsheet

Ordered some blu-rays recently and when they turned up, the package contained the wrong films. Looked closer at the delivery note and it was somebody else's name and address. Looked even closer and it was sent by a completely different website I'd never heard of. Other than that, fine

Wow okay, didn't expect another MST3K kickstarter any time soon (or ever tbh), and definitely didn't expect it to be Mike et al.

Don't fear the reaper is yacht rock

Also think it makes it clear that these creeps never actually cared about children being abused, they just cared about the game of having access to Secret Important Knowledge, and when it became a) actually true and b) publicly available, it's no longer interesting to them

Lawyer here. There’s a lot of misinformation about what this means. It means he’s innocent even though he did it and the judge said that it’s good what he did

Playing hot new videogame Lort. Is it because one of the characters is a muscular elf? I'll never tell!

Prisons are closing because people are murdering online.

Fair, though if he ever announces an onlyfans the resulting crash would take down half the internet

Just had a marsh tit on my new bird feeder. Or willow tit, they look so similar! PS do not put marsh tit into a search engine.

Put together a film noir playlist on YT recently, and now I've got whisky in the house I'm finally working my way through it. Starting with Fear in the Night from 1946. Starring old dog's mess from Star Trek himself, DeForest Kelley!

Carry On Zardoz

Cooking mince and tatties, lads, with a Ledaig whisky or two. I'm so Scottish
