Do you know the phrase "Busman's Holiday”?

@robb poll confirms it’s a grandad phrase

Anyone got a spare £400 I could have for the toaster of my dreams https://www.homeboundessentials.com/products/revolutiontouch-pro-high-speed-smart-toaster-elevate-your-breakfast-game

@robb it’ll only last 6 months because there will be a software update for the toasted bagel setting that doesn’t support rev 1.9.8 or below

I’ve been writing backends with Laravel for the best part of a decade and I still get caught out by not setting fillable on models 🫠

wade, 2 months ago

@robb turn on strict mode, then it moans at you for not doing fillable, eager loading and a few other bits

@robb you forgot the part where the seller lies, you spend the best part of £1,000 to find out they lied and the property is what they said it’s not and you end up aborting the purchase wasting everyone’s time

Name a bigger lie than GPs telling you "you can book appointments online."

Go on. I'll wait.

Edit to say: this is not to bash the NHS, they're being destroyed by the Tories and the whole service is painfully overwhelmed.

It's frustrating.

@brunty you can use the machine to check in for your appointment

Never works and I end up at the desk anyway

Fresh out the oven, still bubbling. Gotta wait for it to cool before turning out and slicing.

Not sure I can wait that long 🤤

Finally turned out on to a chopping board ready to slice and serve

Went down a treat with our friends today. Saved some to go with our Sunday roast tomorrow

I’ve added the recipe to my blog if you fancy a go https://www.iwader.co.uk/posts/2023/12/christmas-stuffing-cake/
