Currently the missus is driving from Weymouth to Marlow.
I know she'll be listening to her Spotify collection. But we share the same account and I keep selecting shit songs that will also play in her car

A friend's Spotify was hacked, so he played a soundtrack of a bloke screaming. Continually.
Later found that his GF had given her father the login details ...

Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
By coincidence, I'm currently reading Military Blunders by Saul David and just finished the section on Market Garden. The whole operation was based on wishful thinking and denial of evidence. Would laughable if it wasn't so tragic.Potter wrote: ↑Sun Feb 04, 2024 12:58 pm I downloaded A Bridge Too Far for £3.99 off some TV app, I now have 48hrs to watch it and I'm going to stick it on this afternoon.
I'm really looking forward to it - I did have it on DVD but we threw them all in the skip along with the DVD player when we moved
Recommended reading, by the way.

I'm off to the really big island soon. Remembering the passport is never a problem but this time I've actually packed a plug adapter, and not at the last minute.

That sound the sea makes as it ebbs over the pebbles. That has to be the single most relaxing noise I know. It's like the earth exhaling and chilling. It always stops me in my tracks and puts a smile on my boat race.

I know there are pebble beaches all over the place but that looks awfully like Herne Bay. Where is it really?

Selsey. Where the road through the town ends, by the car park. It was the tail end of a storm, shingle swept up all over the road. A couple of hours later, flat calm & fog!

Do you live in Selsey? A friend of mine moved there about 10 years ago and really likes the place. He works at Selsey Press.

The ease of loading my disability railcard onto a new device, and the ease of removing it from the old device. And even better, they are only going to reply to my email, not reach out to me.
