The Tesco shopping website is blocked here at work, but b3ta isn't.

This receipt, of course, is just for day 12. In total you'll need 42 pregnant geese and 40 gold rings.

I asked Mark Little and Ralf Little to help me decorate once. Mark got stuck straight in, stripping the old stuff, pasting the new, hanging it perfectly, but Ralf just stood around looking at his gormless face in the mirror, leaving it all to us. So frankly Barbarossa you are talking complete twaddle.

# hehehehe...
seeing this reminded me that I have an almighty urge to do a 'Yorkshire Pot' for crimbo dinner, that's a partridge in a pheasant, in a duck, in a chicken.
Asked the missus if she approved (given the potantial cost) and I got:
"well it's a bit exgravagant for four people, isn't it? And what about the cost? Well (pause) it's up to you"

Which is basically "No. But I don't want to say no. But I mean no."

SO now what?

# If she's going to be like that do all of them inside an ostrich and say 'next time say 'no' if you mean 'no'.
Which is admittedly massively confrontational but then that's what Christmas is about, isn't it?

Additionally: tinydragonapps.com/steam/

Is a nice website that scrapes Steam and shows the day's offers.

Dollars at the moment but the on-sale games are the same, and apparently he plans to do a proper British money one soon.

Something about signing up for an account, choosing some games and getting emailed when they go on sale too.

# I found $149.99 for a pear tree (full size)
And $10 for a partridge.

And converted it to proper money.

I did not, however, consider fees associated with putting the partridge in the pear tree.

RESEARCH.
