Presents!


The rule "Don’t buy James chocolates.. They give him migraines." has been followed to a T..

This morning I unwrapped about 20 boxes of Jelly Beans, jars of boiled sweets, some Toffee, and plenty of Liquorice.
I also got one (only one!) bodyspray, some jimmy jams and a jumper.
No socks! Repeat : NO SOCKS!!!

Welsh whiskey :o I've never had a single malt before! It's so nice! It's pale like Irish whiskey which I really like compared to the peaty Scottish flavour ones.

Have a lovely day everyone xx

I got the usual socks/slippers, plus my new lappie.

We have the original santaclaus called sinterklaas here. We did some presents then.

I did get a bottle of smells when we visited someone. Also just finished eating a kapsalon(fries, molten cheese, veggies, meat, and sauce)

@gfk, nice to hear the laptop is working. I was thinking you might have gotten a broken one

Nah, just the windows updates being a pain, as well as removing a bunch of preinstalled crap I don't want (including Norton Security - that can fuck RIGHT off!)

And after all that... there were more updates including the dreaded 1709 creators update.

Currently at 15 hours overall update time, and counting.

How do people with only one PC tolerate this shit? How can it take so effing long?

TBF most of those updates have probably been incurred by all, but over a long period, rather than all in one go. But yeah. Windows. It's shite. But less shite than OSX. And Linux. IMHO.

I got very frustrated with the amount of camera swirlying during boss fights in Odyssey, but having got to a point where I’m no longer dreading those, I’m having a whole lot of fun jumping and leaping around. A great game.
ARMS is also a lot of fun, but due to a similarly swirly camera, I can’t enjoy that as much as I’d like to.
