I'd like to sit in a field watching bats at 3am Could everyone please gently caress off and not come to the post office, ta Especially if you're going to ignore all social distancing and cram in constantly so I have to keep telling people loudly to wait outside Hiding in the loo because people wouldn't stop coming up to my counter before I called Bats in a field at night sounds heavenly. Except maybe the 3am bit

We had a campfire and a metal samavar for tea, me and my mate from the office, no phone reception and it was bliss. Until my manager called me in because he literally couldn't function without someone babysitting him, that is. I miss having the office - site work - travel routine sometimes then I also remember how many social events I missed, how many relationships got sour because I was in some bumfuck town 400 km away and how many second dates I couldn't go because I got a call on Friday night to pack my poo poo and roll out.

The guy I was working with spent 10 minutes trying to park in a considerable space this morning.

It's kinda nice that I now have the full day to myself, but I am knackered. Also I've eaten too many Aldi vegan sausage rolls, and they've just added a fake cheese and onion oneone 😮😮😮

There was an owl outside my bedroom window last night, giving it the ol hoot hoot I didnt have to stay awake studying it for work though, for which I am grateful

Owls are a sign of a false implanted memory. You were probably abducted and probed by aliens last night. Congratulations.

Sport is an escape from the hells of reality to a simple space where there is only us, them and an abstract authority to rage against.

I've started watching football recently to make the rugby withdrawals more bearable.

Football in and of itself is actually really cool and good. I can understand taking issue with certain ancillary aspects of football like the fandom or the ridiculous sums of money involved but chiding someone for enjoying a good game of foot does not make you sound as edgy and cool as you might think

i have a raging foot fetish and deeply resent the fact that they wear boots to play. that's why i hate it.
