Hate to be the one to tell you this, but it looks like she was searching for it.

That plus if they are selling a non-standardised service to a business it can be challenging to work out the cost. Projects, consultancy, etc all need to be scoped and estimated.

I got caught in a few showers yesterday so I think I will hide from the rain today. I might go and get my hair cut and then relax around the house. I have been looking for a suitable moment to watch Avatar 2 and this might be just that sort of day.

I am about an hour and 20 minutes into it. I would say that the animation is fantastic - visually it is beautiful. The sound mix is great and is really filling the room. The story is meh - I am approaching this from a ‘low mental effort US action film’ point of view and I think I’ll be ok to watch to the end.

The thing that is bugging me the most is that they haven’t even tried to come up with an alien point of view. The characters might as well be human, and American at that.

I have no idea why James Cameron thought this needed to be 3hrs long. If a film goes over 2hrs it really needs to be a mini-series.

You might want to go to specsavers… they can probably help you with that.

The radio is telling me there are lots of things on in the Bristol area today, including Southmead Festival, Chipping Sodbury Festival, Bath Carnival, and Bristol Pride.

Unfortunately the weather is looking not so good, and if i starts raining in the next hour or so then I might just potter around the house.

We are going out to a posh restaurant for dinner this evening.

I had to get my wedding ring resized to a smaller fit, as I kept flinging it across the room whenever I was wildly gesticulating. It’s now about the right size, although my finger has a wild range of circumference depending on the weather. Today it’s about right, but in winter I can still accidentally turn my ring into a projectile.

TIL: gesticulating is spelt with a g, not a j.

Chef’s Table down near Cumberland Basin. I keep calling it Chef Stable.

Biscuit of the day (BOTD)

What is your favourite biscuit? What biscuit will you be having with elevensies? What biscuit do you hate? What do you call a garibaldi?

The rose bush has done really well this year, producing a huge number of flowers. I dead-headed it at the weekend and I am expecting a second flowering later in the year.

One of our bushes appears to have died. I gave it a good prune in October and I think that’s what went and killed it. I checked a few branches and they were bone dry. I need to check the main trunk and see if there is any life left in it or if I should bite the bullet and pull it out.

Our buddleia has grown so voraciously that it has collapsed in the windy weather we have had over the last few days. I didn’t prune it back enough in the spring.

Recovering after spending the day at St Pauls Carnival (Bristol) yesterday. I was out most of the day and into the evening. By the end there were rivers of piss running down the roads. It was a good day but I don’t envy those tasked with the clean-up.

I had my ear plugs in and it was still super loud when near the sound systems. Some were great, some had so much bass it drowned out everything else. I don’t understand how people can stand right next to the speakers (well… I assume drugs).

Not sure what to do today, although I think dinner is going to involve jacket spuds.

I love a good burger, but the wife isn’t so keen. Burgers are now a treat for me… Honest Burger is my go-to chain for ‘It’s pretty good’.

I put the green (it’s green for garden waste here) bin out on Friday and they emptied it, which I consider a win given all the local politics about strikes and stuff.

TediousParrot ,

I concur, but what type of salt and vinegar?

  • Discos: Not as good as they were when I were a lad.
  • Walkers: Consistently ok.
  • Kettle: Good if you are feeling a bit posh, but the balsamic vinegar can be overwhelming.
  • McCoy’s Ridge Cut: Excellent.

I don’t get up Clifton much - I haven’t tried there yet. I’ll need to remember it next time I am in need of a burger. Thanks!

TediousParrot ,

They aren’t Discos unless the corners of your mouth are burning.

There is also !bristol because what would this would be with only one Bristol?
