He also wants the lords out of the way so they stop turning up and questioning his grand plans. Shuffling them that far North will stop a swathe of them ever attending, and it will stop the news media interviewing them as much.

I drink neither, I'm not a fan of coke. Don't drink many fizzy drinks in general tbh. Not now I can't get supermalt in 500ml cans anyway.

I used to drink far too much diet coke, less now though I didn't consciously mean to, just happened. Also a while back had to pay hundreds of pounds for a new gear selector in the jag cos they said someone spilt coke in it, he showed me a tiny sticky looking corner of some circuit board then too but I have no idea how anything got spilt in it but not leaving children in there ever again.

Just as long as it's not caffeine free, sugar-free red bull. Or sugar-free irn bru. That stuff is a heresy.

I have completed one of major contracts and I feel the chill of unemployment if my last client decides to slow things down (a low chance since they are like super essential with low overhead, but still). I had some leads and interviews but all of them fell silent. I can survive on furlough (or even flexible furlough) but clearly not a good sight. Had a bean chili with chorizo and copious amount of cayenne pepper, rip rear end in a top hat.

I got lost in London once 'cos I got too drunk to find my hotel. I think I kept finding it on Google Maps, setting off with the best of intentions, then kind of forgetting what I was doing and waking up a bit later on to find I'd walked 10 minutes out of my way again. I wish I'd had Strada or something to track my movements that night.

I got exceptionally lost in Budapest two years ago when my phone bricked. I tried to get some help from the police, which told me to look "Google Drive (sic)" which is fair enough. I got saved by a bunch of Turkish tourists letting me use their phone and my place was literally 5 minutes around the corner (it was in the massive building complex of Szimpla Kert, so pretty much super easy to find afterwards)

I got exceptionally lost in Ulan Baator and only found my hostel because an Australian guy who was out there teaching English saw a confused looking white man, took pity on me and let me use the internet at his house. Then he explained how the lack of city planning was organised and gave me some general hints on which local beers were good. Lovely chap, can't even remember his name.

Something like that. It's related to celestial equatorial coordinates, but not. It's a right fucker to do maths on.
