    Bring on the solstice. Things, can only get better, can only get better.

    Trying to self motivate to get arris in gear for last day of work work, the revenue generating stuff, of this wunnerful year.

    Looks like will have 3 days of tree planting down by The River tomorrow and next week, n thousand supposed to be in by end of the year under some funding deal, n-x thousand in so far. Bare root trees adhere of course to the human constructed calendar.

    Get on with it. Ok.

    Decent night of biking and pubs last night was enjoyed, but it did rather eat into my sleep.

    Work stuff with way too many meetings and later I should do a run

    Physically he's doing fine, psychologically he's in a critical state.
    Perhaps some gently soothing words will dampen down the anxiety and send him on a more positive mental course. The sort of encouragement that will lift his spirits and he can cruise to the line, sleep better, feel good about himself.
    @johngti : Man up up you silly f*cker.

    That's him sorted. Now back to business. Which is, a bit of shopping, Café and a bit of tinkering.

    What comes first SG - the cooling down of the Universe or our sun expanding before it's ultimate demise as a white dwarf?

  • Not much to report, shopped yesterday and had lunch at The Ivy.
    My review was that the food was nice however I feel it's highly over priced and some people just go to these places because they want to tell the internet that they have be...

    Oh wait a minute...

    Today will consist of throwing prices at people.

    Day 8. It’s at nighttime now, too. Someone (or something) was on the roof. I could hear it clomping around in its boots, it was sent by her I know it. What was it doing? What were they hoping to achieve? Don’t they realise that I know what their game is???? I was given instant porridge this morning. Which is weird. Because it really was instant, like she knew what I was going to ask for. It’s mind control. Or witchcraft. Or am I just completely unable to track the passage of time now!??!!!??!

    In other news, fully binged Cobra Kai on Netflix and, as a person who enjoyed the karate kid as a youngster, it was very enjoyable. Bring on series 4!

    You know what they are up to - sure but there's nothing you can do.
    It's been nice knowing you.

    However - don't loose the faith; al is not lost. We need to forumulate an escape.
    [I dunnowhodafuck Al is].

    Seano is going to play the Catholic priest for the pre-sacrificial full confessional. (To cleanse the soul of sins before meeting the big bloke - up or down).
    He'll hide you under his Cassock and sneak you out.
    At this point in time, one might assume this is a risky strategy given historical incidents but Seano's not really that way inclined. Well, at least, I don't think so and you can hope.
    We will get you in the back of a Ford Transit van and whisk you off to SG's lab where he'll give you a thorough examination just to make sure you are okay.

    if its in the ceiling then the only thing for it is to get it out so if i were you i'd start smashing holes in the ceiling to see where it is.

    you can then tempt it out by leaving food for it in small piles around your room.

    if that doesn't work, force it into a corner by wankingit out and throwing globs of jizz at it then catch it in a sheet.

    even if you can't see it its worth takibg this course of action i reckon and I'm the scruffiest man I know..

    I'll beep the horn and flash the lights.
    It will be the sound of a Transit Mk6 van because they have that lovely Duratorq engine which is most reliable.
    Noises like this are common place in urban environments so won't raise any suspicion.
    1 beep for get ready, 2 beeps for go!

    3 beeps and we've been rumbled.
