I put nothing on here my eldest daughter would be ashamed of me for, if she joined and saw it.

Apart from the bit about the mashed potato sandwich she ate.

I was starting to doze on the settee and Erin said, "I think it's time you should be in bed, dad. You always push it and end up really tired in the morning"
Funnily enough, that's pretty much what I used to say to her 2 or 3 years ago.

She has no computer or mobile phone to do it herself. I sat at her home and showed her on my laptop what I was doing. For half of what she was going to be charged, she got double the time and a few of extra trips. I've also recently booked her on tour of Japan.

My elderly aunt has been asked. She was withdrawing a large sum in cash to give to me, so I could book her on a trip to Australia to see her brother. The travel agent was charging double the cost.
The banks have a duty of care if they suspect someone is being scammed or defrauded.

My children were relatively normal today. No weird updates I'm afraid.

During research I read about yeast and fungus that take advantage of stressed people's skin. I had dry skin on my face and serious dandruff. Head & Shoulders couldn't shift it.
I made preparation T-Bomb and around day four I was clear. Lasted for 6 months. Maybe I should market it?

I experimented with making an anti-Malassezia hair and face cream. Triton I called it, because it involved an anti-bacterial and two anti-fungal ingredients, for myself. Day one my face itched and burned. Day two the top layer of my skin came off in scales. Day three, pretty much all clear.

Squiggs base unit is seriously overpowered for a simple speedometer output.
It's like Russia making a huge hypersonic missile and calling it "The fluffy rocket of love and comradeship".

Squirrel sex-bots you mean. Speedometer my arse. He's spent weeks developing this and buying parts. He's got a garage full of of old moped bits. He's up to something.

They received intelligence and stopped a speedboat smuggling drugs with a sniper shot to the engine. They recovered the evidence. The smugglers will be prosecuted.
They didn't arbitrarily kill everyone onboard with a missile strike, on the whim of a madman.

Royal Marines' bullseye shot stops £35m illegal drugs shipment in the Middle East

It comes as the latest in a series of drug seizures by the Royal Navy in the Gulf region.

Eldest daughter freaks out when she finds that her great grandmother Emma's signature is freakily similar to her own. Even down to the exact flamboyant E she did.

At what age is it okay to allow your children to drink bourbon and smoke cigars?

They're both corrupt. Both ugly inside and out.

Everything is explorable if we choose to fund it. Here and out in our solar system. It took Voyager One 48 years to travel one light day, or 15 billion miles.
We could do that quicker if we had the vision. Quantum computers can now communicate with each other being metres apart without connection.

The relief though? The worry that goes through your mind?

My youngest daughter fakes being scared, so she can sleep next to me. I know she's faking, but I don't mind as long it's not on a regular basis. It's the long sighhh when she settles down that gets me.

If I experience weird stuff happening with my body, I wait 14 days to see if it sorts itself. Anything over, I see the doc.
I had something just a couple of months ago. It waited until the last day to sort itself.
