Just made the sambo in a whole loaf and ate the lot
Wrapped the whole job in foil before I put it back in the oven too.

On this, wouldn't most of any money go to whoever holds the rights to the songs they are largely copying? If that dickhead former Rolling Stones whatever he was basically got all of the monetary rights to Bittersweet Symphony because he owned a small section of the strings bit or whatever it was wouldn't Startship get all of the We Built This City royalites?
I imagine the "charity" shit is mostly just to get the likes of Elton John and Ed Sheeran on board to boost the image of "the brand". From there the ad revenue from their other lame videos does the rest.
Anyone back tomorrow?
Would be if I could to get away from the aunt coming down and her and my dad talking about smog in late 50s London until the cows come home.
I'm back in but it'll be a skeleton crew and I'll be bored to tears. I'd rather do these dead shifts from home.
Apparently my in laws went round to their sons this year (we were at my parents) and when asked if they wanted a drink and responding with 'a cup of tea please' his new wife responded with 'did you know it costs 20p electric to make a cup of tea' which is both comical and I imagine factually incorrect
She sounds like a hoot.
You'd hope said in more of a 'fun fact' way [like, say, 17 migrant tea pickers died to make that teabag] than a begrudging way, but it sounds like it could be the latter. Question is, did she factor in the energy cost associated with refrigerating the milk?
Red bush doesn’t need milk. And if you’re not drinking red bush, why not.
I'm a twit
Oh it definitely wasn't fun fact, she is one of these who moans constantly on social media about energy prices, refuses to put her heating on etc.
At the Football on Saturday it started getting dark shortly after kick off and the floodlights still weren't on. One of the fans asked a steward when they would be putting them on and his response was "they're leaving it as late as possible. They're really expensive. It's £8 per bulb, per minute and that was before the prices went up. I dread to think what it costs now".
Yeah, just stick to telling people where the toilets are you cunt.
They should play winter games at 11.30, really, certainly at that level.
You'd imagine they will be soon. Maybe 12pm kick offs.
I think they only don't because it pisses off the Away team / fans, but I think there's usually less than 200 away fans at each game, so fuck 'em.
There's still no way a big lightbulb is costing £8+ per minute though.
That would be a tremendous opportunity to steamroller the fan travel excuses for not having a British football pyramid. The Plymouth and Wick fans don't have an issue if kick-off is at eleven in the morning and they aren't expected to show up.
Work Christmas pints cancelled so decorations coming down today. It’s over.
I'm a twit
I was supposed to go with a lad from work this week for a few until I realised he thought his Mrs was going too.
I’m beginning to think he’s not allowed anywhere without her.
He's asked again
Tell him the more the merrier
Tell him I've an awful dose like everyone else has
festive Samaritans shift for me, just spent an hour on the phone with my pal who is talking about how the only thing that's stopped him topping himself before is being too much of a pussy. happy new year!
Just tell him death comes to us all. Why put the effort in?
Exactly. Loads of places the attention seeking twat could get his fix.
If being 'too much of a pussy' is the only thing keeping him alive, aren't you better off reminding him what a pathetic cunt he is? If you talk him up he might do it.
While I do see where you're coming from, sadly from my experience, behaving like an attention seeker and being genuinely fucked up and depressed aren't exactly mutually exclusive. Guy has genuinely had a fucking shit year, mum is dying of an autoimmune thing, dad in and out of hospital with heart problems, and some girl has been properly messing him around for months. Sure, everyone has shit to deal with, and plenty have to deal with very similar stuff, but he's been suffering from a million mental health problems already so, yeah. Very much sympathetic. They've tried multiple antidepressants and he's done lots of different kinds of therapy, but it doesn't seem to be doing much good. I guess his best bet is totidy his room, go for a walk, and improve his dietfinally find some therapy that actually works.
That's out of his control, man. Shite happens.

Happy New Year TTH.
Hope 2023 is alright for you all.
I think we settled on fireworks being shite but backing it with music might actually be making it worse. Those light show drones are impressive though, once they can launch thousands of those badboys and improve the pixel rate they could do some mad hyperreality shit.
Happy 2023 lads.
Happy New Year. Have a top one.
Anymore cheek from you and I’ll be sending Smiffy round to put your knickers in a twist again
Happy new year, you gobshites. It's TTH's year.
Happy New Year you absolute cunts
