Just changed the batteries in the TV remote. Not quite dead, and giving them a slight warming in the hand got the remote working again.

Timberrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

And no, that's not me felling trees. That's 1-0 to the Arsenal.

Isn't that also known as the basement?
Didn't realise they'd rooms down there.

'Lower Ground Floor' is the hotel's terminology even though it's not even the ground floor let alone a basement as there's a ground level car park underneath the hotel. Even the ground floor is above a restaurant above the car park.
Street view image to show the layout, I was on the other side which looks on to a retaining wall for the rising ground into town.

And 8 - 1 aggregate for England Women. Greece really didn't know what had hit them.

A quiet evening has been had with a quick update to my bank account spreadsheets so I know how much spending money I will have left for the rest of the month. The main account still has 1 credit and 4 debits to be made this month so looking at the account balance online for that one is no good.

Time for this evening's hot chocolate.

been years since I've had some. how do you make yours?

This one will be made by nuking some milk, adding Cadbury's drinking chocolate powder and then another short nuking.
The daytime ones are made with Options instant powder and hot water.

Yeah. Was in danger of becoming a cricket score.

3-0 to Arsenal in the end, with a cameo on the Lille side by our former striker, Olivier Giroud.
