For the discerning gambler to ascertain honest odds heres the damage

A new low in work avoidance for me, a cat shit poll Roll up, roll up all you compulsive gamblers out there place your bets….

So damn cool!

There’s a little bit of me that still wants to see the actual place.

When things are finally set up here they’re on my hit list.. the hell I won’t.. the hell I will! I’m expecting it to be a a bit of a touristy let down but growing up with limited tv offerings meant Westerns n John Wayne were waaaay up there on a kids watch list!

I’ve never tried scabbard, not sure I want to now!

@gymwitch excellent, any more? Hope it’s a good trip, you’re well kitted out for it!

Great photos n enjoyable write up. Cheers. So why are the liquor stores far n few between in Utah? Is Utah what UT means?

A typo, it’s his annual badges parade

People who follow culinary rules are daft. They restrict creative cooking and none of the brilliant fusion dishes would exist if everyone slavishly followed rules. If it taste good eat it. Then again if youre going to start putting the cream on the scone before the jam then youre a proper weirdo. Your address will be forwarded to the popo. Good job Aaaaaargh, what is wrong with you?

Mr Slowlys laptop bag was stolen 4 days ago and the ‘find my’ locations services had its last location in a vast scrubland of 3 metre high sharp pampas grass. He and the police searched for it until all hope was lost. This morning I woke up with a strong feeling Id find it. I persuaded Mr Slowly to take me there and I found it in the first bit of grass I went into. This is the size of the scrubland it was in. Mental ay. I shall be checking any seats that are pulled out for me arent ducking chairs edit: it was only the ipad I found the laptop and bag are a gonna. Heyho, it was the ipad that upset him most.

Yesterday before Id done any searching for a DIY store I asked @XTreme on here how to find one. Mr Slowly came into the room and said wotcha doin? I replied asking Pete about DIY stores, he said have a look and see if theres something called a Leroy Merlin nearby. He’d seen one in Granada so “Leroy Merlin” was repeated in the conversation several times. I opened a new page and got as far as typing ‘Le’ before Leroy Merlin was the suggested search. That type of thing with adverts and search suggestions happens all the time, it freaked me out at first but now I dont mind, saves times having what your searching just pop up in front of you even if it means your conversation is always being listened to! Many people dont realise its a thing, I think its way over the creepy line and you should be asked explicitly if you want to opt in but as usual money money money money. If you google how to stop my phone listening the instructions for switching this freaky stuff off are there. The only thing I find annoying about it is I have to spend a lot of time talking about guitars with my son and I am fed up being bombarded with guitar adverts when I dont play, search for or buy guitar stuff!

Watching Wales South Africa game that was played in Cardiff today, its sheeted down sideways non stop for the whole game!

18 degrees today and 19 tomoz but cloudless sunshine all day so it’ll feel hotter. It is going down to 11 degrees tonight, I may even leave ceiling fan off

Sleeping animals, lovely.

Went to the supermarket and got new luggage for the Himalayan, wotcha fink? they also had a posh hacksaw, Im armed and ready to destroy a perfectly good lamb joint.. But discovered you can connect an amazon firestick to a mobile network so the hacksaw massacre can wait til after the rugby and a beer or two, one doesn’t want to be hasty

That old chestnut, sink or swim?

No joy. With its case its heavy and probably hit the low unseen level. If you want a brighter note a Spanish couple knocked on the door and asked me if Id lost anything (I think thats what they said, they spoke as much english as I speak spanish!) I got excited until they proudly produced a bus ticket from that morning’s disaster run (disappointed doesn't cover it!) but they were just checking out who we were before producing Mr Slowlys passport n paperwork. They found it on the side of the road. Nice of them ay! Shame it was cancelled n useless to us but hey, nice folk

Wot friggin website are you on this evening @Sir Fallsalot? and in response

Yer I went big and thought at least a good sheepdog but he declined so me n Mr Slowly got married, alls well that ends well

Wot u wanna do? I dunno wot u wanna do?

Says the man from the West Country

People fucking other peoples wives is a worldwide phenomenon old as time Often used as a bargaining chip. Andrew tried to sell me to another farmer once for a bag of potatoes. He declined, said he was only prepared to run to carrots

I think thats a common worldwide phenomenon.
