The Fartbucket goes in for its MOT today. Have a bad feeling about it, the wallet quivers.

 

[Terry S.]

You have my sympathy. Mine is going to the garage tomorrow for a full service and a pre-NCT (=MOT) check. It's a 2013, so you know it's going to cost something.

 

[Hawkwood]

Well it's fingers crossed for both of us then. Let's hope our mechanics are not skint this week.

Dragged her feet through, @Terry S. but she made it nonetheless.

Unlucky. Nowt you can do, I was expecting it myself.

Checked my sticky snares this morning and I've caught 4 insurgents (rats). Now if only I could capture a live one and force it to spill the beans on their lair whereabouts.

I'm getting rather good at it after being quite screamish and mortified on my first capture. It's awful to kill an animal but what to do. If only the residents would not leave food shrapnel around until I return again to clean but to deaf ears it falls.

Time to put a second coat of gloss on the living room door methinks.

I cannot find a Belfast sink in any garden of the score plus properties I work at nor in local skip drive-bys. I've no choice but to buy a used one off Ebay. They're a lot like a King's adulterous brood, expensive bastards.

Sounds... interesting? oO

I've never been quite sure what those circles are supposed to mean.

 

[Terry S.]

Think of the late Patrick Moore.

So it's a planet and its satellite? I'm no wiser.

They are eyes, one open wider than the other, to denote surprise and/or confusion/puzzlement, a "w-t-f" sort of feeling.

 

[rothbard]

I didn't know that either.

Just like Patrick Moore's eyes.

That's brilliant! Was that done on a PC?

Kicking that idea down the road a bit, you could make a fantastic map for kriegsspiel or a variation of it.
