Currently looking around at the tables of people eating lunch and wondering who the popular kids are and who are the chess club people. (Ok, it's me, I'm the chess club person)

I read a load of stuff last time that told me to use baking soda and vinegar and it would be easy. I was cleaning the bastard for two days solid. This time I used Oven Pride stuff that's covered in toxic symbols and skulls. Absolutely piss easy.

I think it was in the types of pubs where they still had a separate room for familys. Probably had only just got rid of the sawdust on the floor.

Yeah. There is definitely something to that. My first car was built at the end of the 60s Dashboard was solid metal, feet about an inch away from the engine. No padding, no airbags. If you crashed, even slowly you were going to get seriously injured.

There's a chapel I've been to a few times called St Peters on the wall that was built in the 660s from the ruins of the Roman Fort of Othona. Then it was used as a farmers barn for a long time and I think they used some of the same bricks for animal pens. Proper recycling.
