    @Giggles pluralsight is free for April. Dunno about Access but they'll definitely have SQL courses.

    I could never get my head around basketballs. They're so big and so hard.

    That's a lockdown question. Most aesthetically pleasing ball in all sports. A football ranks highly but less so since they became all plasticky. Personally have a soft spot for the humble golf ball.

    I like the golf ball. It's so complex and intricate.

    The college football ones especially as they're a bit smaller. I can get a tight spiral on them.

    They're nice to cradle, but how people throw them far with one hand I have no idea. Too big.

    Can't beat a nice new cricket ball. Failing that, a taped tennis ball for some street cricket. So satisfying to bowl with.

    The spiral in't the hard bit. It's the spiral on a 50 yarder to where you think a guy might be in two seconds when you've got a few angry chest freezers in helmets bearing down on you.

    Them proper English cricket balls are impressive things, to the point where, like a lot of good things, if you had to invent them today it would be the last way you would do it.

    Day 1:

    18/100

    Can only go up from here. I'm sweating balls though. Surprisingly good workout, not the shooting, just chasing the ball so it doesn't go into my neighbours garden.

    Or you could score up to 18 fewer.

    If anything you getting worse first would be a more compelling story.

    Technically, not a scarecrow, cos there's no hay on it. Not a drop of hay in sight. It's just a rag on a stick.

    It’s for scaring birds away. Unsurprisingly I don’t have any hay.

    And a rag? Cheeky prick. That’s my shirt.

    Why the big yellow face? Scarecrows are generally aesthetically pleasing, that looks ridiculous.

    I've got my home brew bottled as of friday but supposedly have to let it condition until next friday. Have to wait til I get paid to get another kit and more bottles. In the meantime got a new bbq yesterday so that will be getting some hammer.

    Then you probably shouldn't look at the top right, where there's a house built from two completely different kinds of brick.

    When I went picking up my dads electric rake last week, I drove past that ball bouncing down the road in the wind. I went back and took it home to use as the head because I had shag all else to use.

    In an ideal world every bit of wood would be like FF0000 red, but the fact that most of the fence panels were already brown when I got the house means I'd have to paint them with at least one coat of white first, and then at least two coats of red. F that. So the shed was some cheap brown paint I found in Asda, the red fence panel on the right is brand new and hasn't been painted - it just came that colour and I have no paint - and the fences on the left belong to my neighbour and he kindly paints both sides because he's nice.

    They're an American company, I'm pretty sure it's worldwide. Is that through an ipad app or something? Try it on pc or through your browser it should work.

    I err ... loaded up a Train Simulator yesterday and decided to walk to the stations to have a better look at them. And then watched a video of the Baby Bullet going between San Jose and San Francisco. It confirms the reality that America is shit with trains. Although double-deckers look kinda cool.

    I used to take that train almost every day. It's complete shit. You pass through the tech mecca of the world on your journey, and the train doesn't even have wifi

    You can't even relax on it because the horn's being blasted every minute from all the level crossings you have to pass.

    Sourdough is the shittest bread. It's bread for people who try not to eat bread. Isn't it also massively labour intensive compared to better alternatives? I might make some soda bread, which is both easy and immense.
