Bacon, sweetcorn & potato soup, then a jacket potato with beans and cheese and some steamed sprouts.

The Serbia v Switzerland game has been good, but now we've got an ice hockey style punch up going on...

Did anyone watch that new crime drama on the Beeb this evening? I will call it Slow Death in Aberdeen! I don't know what it was really called . It seemed to be a bit like Death in Paradise transplanted to Scotland . I just couldn't get into it , it seemed too slow so I gave up after 10 minutes .

Was that what was on before strictly ?
If it was then we caught the last couple of minutes of it

Sounds like you might have been better off watching the football...

I feel for Cameroon who have waited 20 years to win a World Cup game and when they did it, it was against Brazil, the no.1 rated team. And they immediately go out....

As for the other match, Hop Schwyz!

Nothing could be as bad as watching a football match

The barman dropped someone's change into the icebucket by accident and picked it out again. I declined having ice in my drink for some reason...

Was a pretty dire game tho... Better to watch paint dry.

That one had more ups and downs than a game of snakes and ladders... And Granit Xhaka involved in a punch up.

I can think of worse things to drop in an ice bucket

Have finished taking my pencil for a walk across a piece of paper. Very pleased with the result.

Watercolour pencil on hot pressed paper gives a result that almost looks like charcoal (I used dark sepia only) but without the mess. I'll definitely try this again, but I do need to buy a new putty rubber. Not used mine in a while and it's now got the consistency of toothpaste (yuk!), and a standard soft pencil eraser damages the surface of the paper.

Too much coin in your Cointreau?

I watched it but it was very average. I don’t know why they used Aberdeen if they couldn’t find actors that could do an Aberdonian accent. I finished it on iplayer just to see what happened but it didn’t get much better.
