UK. Phone local GP, no appointments available for ~3 weeks, maybe get a call back appointment in 2 weeks if I’m lucky. Alternative is to phone every morning between 0830-0900 and either not get through or be told there are still no appointments available.

I have found walk in pharmacists to be well educated (better than many GPs?!) and available without appointment so they’re usually my first port of call.

I know a few producers, the only one who is full time doesn’t really need the money. The rest mostly do muaic tuition or similar, seems like a good match if you know an instrument(s).

Tasty beak?!

I know a remote worker in Iran, went dark for a few days this week. Apparently they can’t call the UK, no internet, ended up relaying messages via a friend in Brazil via sat phone.

Taking an international flight tomorrow, Friday 13th. My wife is in 11A. Not sure how to feel about this.

Got accused of setting fire to the school. At the time of the fire, I was miles away, taking a music exam, after getting official permission, and being picked up and taken there by my mum. All very easily verifiable. Didn’t stop them from ‘interviewing’ me for 3 hours.

Currently going through this, the council wrote the order, took it to my neighbour, who promptly talked them out of serving it. Said he’d be quiet. Wish it worked like that for parking tickets.

FYI if you’re shooting tethered the live view functionality and performance of Capture One is infinitely better.

Not sure they’re much better, they charge to install an intervalometer app. Its extremely basic functionality that should be there as standard.

I have the XPPen 24, used similar Wacom before but couldn’t justify the cost, really pleased with it overall, the macro keys and wheels are very useful. Software wise just Photoshop, and occasionally Corel when I want to mess around with digital painting.

Very cool toys, hadn’t seen a one wheeler before

Is that a ground penetrating radar wheelbarrow?!

My time in Northern Thailand made me want to explore over the border. It seems the closer we got to the more remote border regions the more beautiful the landscape became. Some of the Burmese food around Chiang Mai was amongst the best I’ve ever had. Kao Soi in particular, although maybe this is more Burmese influenced than actually Burmese?!

Quest 3 can launch straight into passthrough mode, most games can be played standing or sitting in place (I play in a regular sized living room without moving anything around). It’s actually quicker and easier for me to play in VR than boot up my gaming rig.

Used to work in marketing, UK. There was a frew beer fridge, with instructions to only help yourselves after 1630 on a Friday. Beers at lunch were fairly standard on a Friday, less so on other days but not unheard of.

Undisputed UK champion of pyro cricket.

Add advanced augmented reality and teledildonics, shit is gonna get weird.

Are they gaudy and bejewelled?

You’re expecting privacy in a public space?!
