    On dogs accepting incoming dogs, I took Sailor and Mecho for a walk with some friends last night. Met a woman with a ridgeback and some small ish Romanian mongrel. The small one called out Sailor with some kebab shop style puffery. The ridgeback jumped in out of obligation. Common thing the woman said. Small one starts scraps only because it has a big mate. Anyway, Mecho, on the lead with my mate a hundred feet away was apparently straining to get into it. A bit of esprit de corps. Pleasing.

    Seemed obvious. I hope your mate’s kids have somewhere to go too? Poor bastards.
  3. I have many times thought about making up a few sets of WILDLY different cards and handing out the least appropriate one at any given juncture. “Yeah. Sure. Short back and sides, clippings on the bonfire. £100. Call when it needs it. Yeah. It’s the same number. The multi frequency Model 5000xXx with pumped-recirculation sump was my best seller for ages but it’s been superseded by the pneumatic gear now. Only have an ex-demonstrator left.”
  4. My business cards are my name and my mobile number in Times New Roman. I carry a pen and add the pertinent detail at point of exchange. “Trees” “Stumps” ”Gutters” ”Gel nails” ”Any old iron” etc If you borrow a pen btw, give it back. Very unprofessional otherwise.
  5. Get slurring drunk and say the French word for cherry, cerise.
  6. Three years and three days after it first fell off, I finally finely fettled the runner with fusion and fitted fresh rollers. I’ll be anxious shutting the door for a while yet. I keep flinching like a wife with one black eye already, expecting it to fall off again.

    Three feet! Fuxking christ. The kickoffs that would have catalysed here a fortnight ago... Won’t rush to try it now either. Condolences btw. I hope he died a hero’s death.

    Do they snag on things? How long a rope?

    IMG_3815.MOV Sailor being thick, Mecho being arsey.
  10. What Doug says. If you act like a servant, your master will act accordingly. Work is a two way thing. You’re on an equal footing. Make them keep promises or bin them.

    Back off, agitator. I know an ex Coca Cola man.

    I had this over winter with pheasants. Sailor wouldn’t touch anything in the feather. Got it past him when I butchered it and he was still difficult with stuff with bones in. Supermarket chicken though, loves it. Deer in the skin, fine. Rabbits, fine.

    Mee-choo confused by whole food. He’s used to kebabs and tins of Butcher’s.
  14. Cupboard and freezer auditing at the parents’. Mouse curry tonight. Quite hot.
  15. Or the butler but I suspect that he is, in this instance, not guilty.
  16. Same pump, same fill, same cans, same historic contents, same everything. Left stored inside, right stored in sunlight.
  17. Hasn’t had mix in it for ten years.
  18. Definite brown twinge. Helpfully photo shows none of it.
  19. Does petrol go this funny colour if left in strong sunlight for a week or has my butler mixed something with it?
  20. See. He doesn’t even deny it. Weak and sick.
  21. My kitchen stoichiometry is actually fine. I’m just curious as to what leads you so often to the perverse. Is it a wider thing? Do you like your women to have short hair? Does it please you to see them keeping on top of the shoe polishing? How long has this been the case?
  22. Andrew Tate told me that complete combustion is for gammas. Real men dictate their household air:fuel ratio. I’ve been CO micro dosing myself for years now. I expect to one day get a woman pregnant from the next room.
  23. Are you recovering from some bizarre past where you were drilled on the cleanliness of the outside of your pans? Were you part of an elite unit that only cooks on the outside? Months of hard routine, lapping slightly charcoally soup from the base and sides of a standard issue Breville, upturned, in an undisclosed location. Does a distant and serious expression habitually spread across your face when you stand in front of a sink?
  24. I was trying to think of a funny mnemonic. Sudden arboreal self pollarding schedule or something.
