When one is without a kitchen (and has been for more weeks than one cares to remember) an invite for a lovely home cooked lunch at my sisters was very much welcomed.

I'm now stuffed.
Leave room for a small restorative this evening.

I am officially losing my petrolheadedness.

Today I drove my parents' Honda Jazz. And liked it.
Nothing wrong with that.
I love mine. It's got a set of winter tyres on so it's squealy. Super little thing.
The repost is drivin me nuts, drivin me nuts.
I drove myself nuts years ago. It's the meds now... They keep me sane.

We're up to about three or four possible definites for the Local International TT Pub/Home/Park Bench/Water Meter Reader's Van/Bed/Tablet/Laptop/Mobile Synchronised Drink Up tonight. It could be a record.

TT's answer to Matt Monro?

Of course you will be required to sing.

eta

My drunk calls have morphed into powerful ballads to peoples voicemail. My most recent rendition of 'Hello' by the legend Neil Diamond has since been remixed. it's really quite something. My mate said I sound like Gary Newman and although I clearly can't sing my timing was spot on and I held an almost perfect D note throughout leaving his magic music machine with little to do other than add some music.

I'd call that a result.

With an old blanket, a sleepy dog and an empty cup?

Let us know how you get on.

I'm pretty sure I just saw the Shermanator. Unfortunately there was no time for a photo.

They don't go so well upside down.

Sound great though.

Meant to say, I saw Roald Dahl last night near Carnaby Street.

It may have been Alastair Sim.

Hmm not sure if I'm being an arse here or not..

I was bidding on a speaker on eBay, won the auction for £40 (£15 less then my max bid) only for the seller to message me saying that they won't sell me the item for this as it is "less than half" what they wanted for it and they are going to re-list it with a BIN, now as I understand the rules (and googling supports this) they have to sell to me. So I sent the seller a message saying that basically (and the link to the page on eBay which details this), I also offered to chuck them the cost for the postage as they had originally not put that on but estimated it at £20.

I realise that I'm probably highly unlikely to actually get the item in this case but I just don't feel inclined to roll over easily on this - people need to MTFU and take responsibility for the things they commit to IMHO.

So am I being an arse?

EDIT: I was wrong about them having already relisted it - read the message wrong (I am very, very, sleep deprived at the moment). Also to add they have previously listed this speaker 4 times with a reserve and it hasn't sold.

You are being reasonable. It is an auction and if the reserve was less than £40, the speakers should be yours.

I will be drinking tonight, but I shall be on an aeroplane so I will have no communication with TT.

Luckily I'm not the pilot.
