... common sense/decency answer in favour of the Greens. They’ve chosen ten questions where a popular answer would align with Green Party values, and one of those obviously crosses with a Tory and even a Reform policy, but this is one of the least reliable questionnaire of this type that I’ve seen, ...

Yes we were...we did go one character down but managed to draw consecutive god hands to win...while the Aliens playthrough ended with the team getting whittled down mover the course of the game.

No (although there will be next time I update things, thanks). There's a Fibonacci sequence one, though.

I think the one tile army is one of the easier tilesets.

Oh, haha! Nowhere near then. I don’t notice the sneaky ‘?’ In the ‘Hardest?’ Difficulty. I’ve just been using the cut down tile set, but shall try one tile army one soon. I did get that completed before the reset, but haven’t tried it since. Just looked through my unlocked hacks and haven’t got ...

... Inspired by the recent couple of episodes on the excellent Origin Story , I decided to re-read 1984 for the first time in years and take a look at one of his earlier novels. There was much in 1984 hat I'd forgotten about, especially all the mystical elements and how Goldstein's book stops the narrative ...

Good job!

I've never done a field course, my club doesn't have one, I'll have to look into it and see if there is a local club that does it.

Had to say goodbye to Peggy. She was my constant companion for the last 11 years and I'm going to miss her terribly. She got me through more than one bad time, just by alwatys being there. She loved snoozing in front of the fire, peas and licking people's toes. She hated seagulls, vacuum cleaners ...

... is/was The Stranger), and when we saw that Richard Armitage was in it, and we had just watched him in Red Eye, we decided to jump in. This is (one of many) an adaptation of Harlan Coben book of the same name for Netflix. In this one "A stranger turns up and starts telling people secrets ...

I thought the first two episodes were mediocre, but that the next two were worse! This latest one: Episode 4 seems early to do a doctor light episode. Also, the time jumps were a little jarring. The story was quite interesting, but the resolution was rubbish. In no way ...

Doctor Who has had two pretty dire episodes to start the new season, but followed that up with two really good ones. Today’s was excellent and one of my favourite from the modern era. Yes, the first two were depressingly medicore - not dreadful, entertaining enough but nothing ...

... was pretty good. I also watched Fist of the North Star. That still FUCKING ROCKS. I think I’ll get back into the old anime films. Not a film but One Punch Man season 2 was decent as well. But Kengan Ashura is my fucking jam! It’s an anime series about people fighting each other and it’s some ...

... an artist I'm familiar with, but I think my mum liked him I remember him well, and two if his three hit singles. But I didn't know that the first one, 'I remember you,' was written by US songwriter Johnny Mercer about his love affair with Judy Garland.

No mate, even the king can't be a bigamist, but one of them could have been a concubine, like Lady Jessica in Dune.

Yeah, we're pruning our freezer contents as one needs to go next week, which led to a big batch of Bolognese with pork belly in it.

That's a box it's going to be difficult to close again, but can't become the norm.

... for the Port Sunlight Dual 5K/10K race in a couple of weeks that Mali persuaded* me to sign up for... will be the furthest I've run, albeit not in one go as there'll be a short respite between the two races. Between that and the training plan for the half marathon in August, which I started this ...

Week 2 done and dusted. Learned proper technique for holding the bow, using a finger sling (and was given one to keep!) and also using a sight for the first time. My groupings were really consistent, generally within 2-3 inches ...

Nice one! No rush.

... space, so please let me share with you my attempts at topiary. We’ve got a few topiary areas in the garden. Two tall topiary topped trees, one a cube and one a sort of ‘umbrella’ sit to the left. Then a little further in we have a smaller standard topiary that when we moved in looked like ...

Grim, I did have a bit of a weird thing happen that I forgot to mention. I was able to fill up my hack list by selecting the same hack three times (I already had three others and the thing that gives me an extra hack). I bailed on the run when it happened. It was a one off.

... it too. The weak power-ups and loot, the utterly obtuse puzzles and the Souls-like (ugh!) bosses. I thought I was bad wanting to do Level 5 on one character then trying to do the rest on easy Each character handles differently enough that trying to figure out a Danger 5 clear with each one ...

... Copse 12) Piles Copse Back up to my spot, the walk up was full of sunshine and sweat, my calves are still a little tight and I really could have done with a couple more rest days, but once again, the forecast is crap for the rest of the week, so I'm making the most of the good weather. I expected ...

Not 100% sure I'll be selling it yet, but would anyone be interested in my 34" Ultrawide monitor? It's one of these . Has a KVM switch built in, and is like new, under a year old (but I don't have the box or anything any more) I'd probably be ...

I'd probably be looking for £300 for it.

... friendly staff and an on-site shop. I covered nearly 4 miles over the course of the day, just running and walking back and forth during the games. One hell of a workout, especially as I had four layers on (undershirt, t-shirt, thick hoodie and then a plate carrier) and it was a HOT day. I'm spotted ...

I've thought about making a video like that for the transmitter on the top of The Wrekin. I wonder if he's already done one.

... whenever I read about them. How much did it cost you, Blucey? £144 on eBay. Definitely more than I wanted to spend but that's the going rate for one with no scratches. I bought it with the view that if I ended up not using it, I'd get my money back on eBay anyway. I always have the 3D turned ...

I know jack all about this but I imagine it would keep you warmer than a tshirt Yes, but I'm trying to lose weight, so I don't want to buy one now, and then another when I've got down to my target weight. Also, I always take the t shirt off when I'm used to the temp, as that feeling is ...

Spotted in an antiques centre, a rogues gallery of people who have awarded themselves a five-fingered discount.

This dodgy character was seen hanging around the antique weapons and the centre later found it was missing one of its longbows.

Isn’t she just! So convincing as all the other inhabitants of her body.

Yeah definitely one or two slow episodes but very good overall. The woman who plays Carrie is an amazing actor.

... 5 difficulty and then there was just a massive void in my heart because there was nothing else to do. I thought I was bad wanting to do Level 5 on one character then trying to do the rest on easy

This is one of those depressing "we should be teaching this in school not focusing on memorising the times tables" things like basic interest rate stuff, isn't it. But no, memorise the times tables and vote for the people ...

No problem. If I had an old one I’d send it to you, but I passed it along to my mum a while back.

MERDEH?!!

British kids saying 'feds' when they mean the Police. Or one of the many traditional British terms, e.g. The Filth, The Scuffers, The Peelers, Boys in Blue, Plod, The Pigs, Rozzers or The Old Bill. Bizzies, mate. In my head that's always with a Liverpudlian ...

... a couple of times, and reloaded and got this when I was going to try ‘TONGA’ on the unlikely chance that changing something helped, but I only got one letter down before it decided I’d lost :D IMG_9856.png

In my head that's always with a Liverpudlian accent.

Bizzies, mate.

That looks awesome. I'm sorely tempted to get one. They're pretty cheap. WhatGeek are doing them for 52 quid if you want a UK seller. I think I bought mine direct from China though Ideally you want two proper branded SD cards. One for your game ...

I think I broke something. I entered a word, pressed play and it just froze.

Nothing I pressed worked, so I tried to refresh the page. It reloaded, but it stole one of my letters
