I'm just about to take a couple of panini out of the freezer. I'm in need of a shopping trip because that's just about the end of bread supplies in Marmosettia.

I'm reaping the benefits of having switched to wireless internet after my house move 3 weeks ago. An electrician is here to convert a single powerpoint to a double, and he's just switched the power off, but my home and work laptops are still running and connected to internet.

I've normally got a couple of packs in the freezer, I thaw em out the slice em in half (bun style) then drizzle a tablespoon of Olive oil onto a plate with a crushed Garlic clove then rub the cut side onto the Oil before giving em a couple of minutes on one of these,



One of the best kitchen gadjects Maz ever bought me.

Just got out of shower & thought I'd have a laugh, no I didn't look in the mirror, I stood on the scales, I even turned them on this time, under 95kg for the first time in a long time, this food shortage might not be as bad a thing as I first thought.

I remember the little butchers across from our lads primary school many years ago, he used to make his own garlic sausages, I won't say they were strong, but after I had eaten a couple even my Good Lady wouldn't come close for a couple of days, and my work mates would complain.

I dropped a loaf of bread & some milk of at my mum's on the way home work this afternoon. It's quite surreal having a natter with her & my stepfather while they're in the garage (door open) and I'm leaning on their car outisde, but at least I got to talk to them face to face. There was one young child I saw holding pictures up to the window of a house and talking on a mobile phone to what I took to be his grandparents shut in on the other side of the glass

There was a bright side, though - another youngster who couldn't have been more than two years old out on a balance bike with her mum by her side, gave me a cheery cyclists wave

I got Babylon 5 today - every episode plus specials.

Despite always being a sci-fi fan, especially all Star Trek series and Stargate, etc. I've never seen an episode of Babylon 5 (yet)

How can we reach Nerdvana?

Wouldn't be surprised if @Reynard had something to with it? Saw the series originally (yes, I'm that old!) and am now working my way through the box set ... after someone giving me a nudge

Right, going to finish this and toddle off to bed.

I'm cream crackered. Never mind this whole lockdown malarkey, I've never been so busy...

good morning folks, today is a painting day, and that will be one side of the back of the through lounge done, the front and the other side to go.

I just got an office accessory which should help me work from home: a HP Omen Citadel gaming chair:

Its features include:

• adjustable seat height;
• adjustable arm rest height;
• arm rests are rotatable horizontally;
• adjustable back rest tilt;
• on/off lever for "relaxation" mode (it locks/unlocks the back rest tilt position) [correction: allows/disallows the seat to tilt on its base];
• lumbar support cushion, with removable cover so it can be washed; and
• neck support cushion also with removable cover.

Based on brief usage so far, I find it to be fragging awesome! (if I may be allowed to use a bit of gaming slang). I particularly like the lumbar support cushion, because I've been getting frequent backaches with the PC chair I've been using to work from home the last few weeks. It took 6 days from online order to delivery, which isn't too bad: I expected worse, given how many people are working from home these days.

Regards,
