Evening all.
Braved the cold and ice and nipped out to my local corner shop to pick up a bottle of red with a screw cap rather than searching for a corkscrew in the shit tip that is my flat for the nice bottle I got off my boss.

Messy young 'un housemates!

Evenin' Beeks.
Young whippersnappers, eh? They all need haircuts and a good beating and maybe something rational like NATIONAL SERVICE. Then they'll know to leave the corkscrew where they found it!

And how to kill a man

Yup,
I'm all for national service now I'm past the age I'd have to do it.

I've got at least 6 years on everyone I live with now and I'm bored being the only one doing the cleaning. Even more guttingly, my girlfriend's moving back to London and I can't quite afford the shared flat with one other scrupulously clean bloke she's leaving behind.

How to kill the man who moved the corkscrew.

An equal opportunity massacre!
Yes, this is the way forward.

Well, if you must kill people for nicking your corkscrews,
you may as well make it fair, right?

It's just buried under lots of clutter.
But yes, heads will roll. Heads will roll.

I have one, I never use it.
All my wine has screw-top bottles!

Mock me why don't you?
Ah well, just the one bottle for me this evening.

Nah, just happens to be the way it turns out... I'm not strong enough to get a cork out a lot of the time.
Tonight though the only drinks I want are hot... we had snow this morning when I got up and it was -1 in France.

I don't like wine enough to pay more than around a fiver.

I'm gagging for some mulled wine right now.
I wanted to get some in Lille but my last 6€ went on a rather fetching beret.

I have half a loaf of bread, a little cheese, marmite and 9 cans of diet coke to last me til Sunday.
I'll be fine. I hope.
