Making a little stop on the afternoon walk. I think it’s important to support small business. 🍦
😴 Big Sunday roast lunch consumed. May need a big Sunday afternoon nap.
Hymns in and Monty Python out of UK funeral songs top 10
Hymns are back among the most popular funeral songs, boosted by the queen’s funeral, while the Monty Python song Always Look on the Bright Side of Life has slipped out of the top 10, funeral directors have said.
Very disappointing news about Star Trek Prodigy not only being cancelled but removed from the Paramount+ platform altogether.
Original series for what’s possibly one of the strongest collections of IP on the platform and it’s removed as a tax write-off. Dumb. 📺🖖🏻
Thought I’d try out the Text Shot app that Chris Hannah has just released.
Looks very neat. Not sure how much use it will get but I like to support small developers so here we are.
Grease 2 was referenced at trivia last night and I popped it on when I came home. I now have Michelle Pfeiffer’s Cool Rider as an ear worm this morning.
The Cat is not a fan of my rendition(s) and has taken herself off to the back bedroom.
Square where Julius Caesar was killed will open to public in Rome
Tourists will be able to stroll close to the spot where Julius Caesar met his bloody end, when Rome’s authorities open a new walkway on the ancient site on Tuesday.
💁♂️ Monday morning. Already thinking about Friday afternoon.
🫖 Sunday morning is made for cups of tea and catching up on the rss feed.
Babylon 5: The Road Home premieres on 15 August so not long to wait now! It’s exciting that we’re finally getting some new B5 after all this time.
The trailer is giving me very Quantum Leap Sam Beckett “put right what once went wrong” vibes though. 📺
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds S2E1 - engage! 📺🖖🏻
🖥️ Vendor evaluation demonstrations. A great way to spend a morning. 😬
😺 The cat has been evicted from my lap with the usual comment “I have to go to work to earn some money to feed you”. 🐈
🙃 Five day long weekend and now I have to go to work. The highs and lows.
I didn’t know how much I’d been missing Jatz with smoked butter and anchovy in my life, until I had it at lunch yesterday.
The menu and view for a degustation lunch at ‘Oncore by Clare Smyth’ on the 26th floor of the Sydney Crown building today. Apart from these 7 dishes there was a starter and finish course as well. Four hours, so full, so good.
Dymocks in the Sydney CBD has a good selection of pens and ink and I really shouldn’t be allowed in there. Accidentally bought a Kaweco Iguana Blue AL Sport fountain pen. Will use cartridges for this one so picked up up some Herbin Vert Empire (Empire Green) at the same time. 🖋️
📽️ Thanks to the pandemic I haven’t been to the Sydney Film Festival since 2019. Rectifying that with two films tonight. 🍿
✈️ Bag is packed and near the front door. So keen for a little trip away for a few days.
Out of office set.
Engaging extended long weekend mode. 🍸
See you next Tuesday desk.
