...you can discover new things everyday, and not every comment after a YouTube video is vile.

I was watching the grenade scene from Captain America, and someone mentioned Desmond Doss who I looked up in Wikipedia. You go read his Medal of Honor citation down the Wiki page. He was basically Dredd with a med-kit:

The recent movie completely passed me by.

It's a scorching day, and I live on a boat with a roof that slides open. Admittedly I have to bail loads of leaked diesel out of the bilge today, and far worse, go into the canal in a wetsuit to cut a rope out of the propeller, but it's worth it.

Good problems to have, JBC!

I've just got in from a bonfire with a handful of friends. Beer, singing, henna tattoos and curry. I even got to play the tambourine - and nailed it*! Not a bad night at all.

*I didn't nail it. Not even close.

My kind of night! I remember a similar night years back, where i got talking to the guy beside me. He was American and had come over specifically to see a 'Celtic castle'. I didn't have the heart to tell him all our ones are Norman.

You obviously have experience with American tourists.

Just two ugly hours to go on what please Grud is my last night shift for a good long while. No more trying to go to sleep at a sunny 7am with earplugs and eyemasks. And if anyone out there is listening, much as the money makes it well worth the effort, 11 hours is just TOO LONG for a night shift. Climbing the walls by 4am. Aaaaaalmost there.

I'm off on holiday for two weeks tomorrow!

(But I've done about around 90 hours a week for the last fortnight to get there, which kinda defeats the purpose).
Lock up your spoons!

Some times things fall into place and good shit comes out of bad, never want to draw the attention of capricious gods, but things going okay at Huff Mansions sur la Mer.
