I have got a stiff neck - how can something so innocuous that you never know how you do it cause so much discomfort

You need to take the next viagra with water, to make sure it doesn’t get lodged in your throat.

Ok more on parking charge notice (my bad for saying they were a fine. silly old me). About 5 cars seem to have got them. Usually the guys or gals come around put a yellow envelope on the windscreen. We watched in interest in August/September when one guy continually parked there without a permit, he eventually gave in when they clamped him and said they’d tow him away. About a week later he was back) He was on TV the other day so we now know who he is.

These parking notices just come direct in the post. Another car/flat got one today. o he has done a bit of searching and found this. https://www.uk-carparkmanagement.co.uk/services/parking-enforcement/self-ticketing
We could have been reporting all the cars in our car park and made some money. We actually think it may be someone in the block next door. Some have already bitched about getting parking tickets in a car park they don’t have permits for saying we’ve been snitches ringing up the car parking company and reporting then. Even in lockdown I’ve had other things to do.

Realising just how dependent we are on the internet.

Our cabinet has flooded so the whole street is out and will until at least Tuesday. Meanwhile we have regressed to the Stone Age

The Ayatollah and I are watching a film, that we chose from the five that were starting at 9pm and we are having to watch the adverts

We can’t play music

I can’t turn on our Christmas lights because I set it all up to work on Alexa

Oh and digital downloads of the PlayStation don’t won’t because it needs to be online to check the licence

I haven’t watched broadcast TV for over a decade. I’ve also become something of a miserable bastard when it comes to TV shows in general. If the "I’ve seen this all before spider sense goes off, I switch off.

I watch a lot of YouTube, and I’m even starting to hate that now. In some particular order, here are some lowlights.

  1. All these fuckers that make money off stuff they’ll never be able to write themselves. Especially the cunt with the bucket on his head. He calls himself Doomcock. He’s just a cock.
  2. People making videos for people that aren’t “book readers”. Their market is not so much the illiterate, it’s more the people that have seen a truncated TV version and can’t be arsed reading the books. The most virulent cover the series of books Game of Thrones is based on. They are in hog heaven right now, what with George RR Martin having not finished the next book. They’ve got to do years of theory videos as a result. Finish the damn book, George.
  3. Includes paid promotion. Fuck off with that shit. I pay for my YouTube so I don’t have to watch the bullshit ads, and yet, here you are, offering me a promotional deal with Nord VPN or whatever rat cunt company you’re promoting. I can skip through it. It’s the medically infirm I worry about.
  4. Anyone that’s got a book out. They are fucking ubiquitous and after seeing them on a few different outlets saying exactly the same things, you realise what they’re actually doing is a stand-up act without any comedy. It really doesn’t make me want to buy the book.
  5. Brendan O’Neill. He says “any” with the same vowel tones as you’d say “fanny”. I know he has Irish roots, and I know they say it that way there. He grew up in London, AFAIK. I don’t think there is a school, public or private, where he wouldn’t have got a hiding for that sort of lark.
