I went and got myself a treat of a couple of HJs breakfast wraps and both were missing the bacon and now I am the sad.

I’ve got a $100 Dan Murphy’s gift card I’ve had since Christmas itching to be spent and a desire to get outside myself today. Trying to think of something special to buy myself.

Maybe it’s a fancy whisky day. I already have fancy gin, fancy vodka and fancy tequila here which I’ve had for ages. Hmm.

Edit: further proof Gboard (Google’s keyboard on android phones) is tracking everything we type… I’m now seeing whisky ads in the Reddit app and this post is literally the only whisky related thing I’ve entered into my phone. I only just had the idea as I was writing it.

London: Camden Town is a cool place if you’re into markets and food. The usual spots in London (Tower Bridge, Trafalgar Square, The Mall, Buckingham Palace, Tower of London if you’re into history). I enjoyed a low-key stroll through The National Gallery in London. Southbank is great for a walk too from Tower Bridge down towards Blackfriars or even Waterloo Bridge. Oh almost forgot… Ye Olde Mitre pub. It’s a tiny traditional 1547 real ale pub. I fell in love with hand pulled ales over there.

England: If you’re in the south/the coast I preferred Eastbourne and Hastings to Brighton even though Brighton is the most famous. Also if you’re after white cliffs, Eastbourne has more impressive ones than Dover even though the white cliffs of Dover are the more famous.

Scotland: Definitely try a nice sit-down meal of Haggis if you haven’t had it before. I spent a bit of time in Edinburgh just unwinding and soaking it all in. Obviously the castle is a focus point. You can’t really go wrong much there. Went to bingo at Meadowbank and that was great if you like bingo.

Wales: I only went to Cardiff and the main thing I went there for doesn’t exist anymore (Doctor Who Experience). The streets and Cardiff Castle are lovely to see though.

Wanted to show a couple of photos from the cliffs near Eastbourne… the first one gives you a bit of scale with the lighthouse. The second one was me demonstrating that there are absolutely no fences or safety measures of any kind.

My mum hates that second photo.

Wrestling with the idea of heading off for a weekend adventure. Staring at the map but can’t think of where to go.

I feel like something in the mountains would be nice but only if I can find a good book to start on because I’m currently between books. I’m not sure if I loved the first Discworld book I read.

Nothing like some midnight floor mopping because you put it off all day and have an apartment inspection tomorrow while you’ll be in the office and you hate having people in your apartment while you’re not there but you have to go to work because you have to present a demonstration to the executive leadership team.

Meeeeeanwhile, I’m seriously considering moving out and just going to stay with my folks for a while. It’s not about money (although it would be nice to save a bunch of money quickly) it’s more about how unhealthy it is for me to sit alone in this shoebox. Plus I’ll have to house/dog sit for them for their upcoming US trip this year anyway.

Then once I’ve saved a bigger chunk of dough I’ll finally bite the bullet and buy something. Likely right before the housing bubble finally bursts after 30 years of people saying it’s going to but never does.

In exciting news: 2 hours after arriving at work I’m done with my presentation and I’m on a tram home. I might even make it before my apartment inspection AND the presentation I was going in for tomorrow fell through so I don’t have to go back in.

I stopped by Coles on the way home and saw they have limited edition Pine Lime Big M and I had to get one because mmmmmmm

bull, 6 days ago

The Pine Lime was as incredible as I expected. Hopefully they stick around for a while.

Roast was lamb. My brother in law is a bit of a wizard when it comes to cooking, especially meats. Those are some maple syrup brussell sprouts too on the plate. Even my niece liked them!

There’s something here which I’ve never seen on a Hawaiian pizza. I just can’t put my finger on it though.

I watched and loved it as a kid when it was released. Very happy to get more of it now with X-Men 97.

I’d pretend to be disgusted by that idea but sadly yes I tried them together and it wasn’t awful
