Without meaning to sound like Justificator, a justifying robot designed by *and for* robots who need to justify things at an exponentially accelerated level of justification, I really *like* having a garlic press.

I couldn't bring myself to say need, but smushing garlic with a knife is a PITA and something that I am happy enough to pay £1/year to avoid. There, I said it, I am not extreme :rotfl:

What a flipping waste of a day. One of those cack ones where you feel sorry for yourself and do nowt despite having no real justification

Spoke to my new boss formally for the first time and he set out his vision. TBH, it's the first time a putative boss has had a vision, so I can't afford to be picky about the vision itself. Essentially I am now going to become some sort of IT service improvement monkey (I think) :eek:

• Pro: Free ITIL training
• Con: What's an ITIL?

Dinner will be salads and the dips I made yesterday, other plans are to pack parcels and watch 'Basil the rat'.

• £1.67 to Freedom Fund
• £10.54 to 2017
• Running shoes arrived (damn!)
• Screened out of another VO survey. Apparently they don't like reclusive finance nerds who don't want Sky and haven't bought a mobile phone in the last fortnight

You arent reclusive...you went away last weekend.

I did for the two items that were unexpectedly expensive and tbh, I think the grumpy bism at the counter charged me for the wrong type of parcel. I'm a recent convert to C0llectPlus, after getting over my fear of corner shops :rotfl:

• Dropped off a pair of eB@yed curtains in a fantastic, spy thriller style drop (£45 cash, no more fees) :T
• Bought flour, sugar and staples from L1dl, £15 or so spent
• Got a hair cut, no longer look like I'm from the 50s :cool:
• £4.52 to Freedom Fund
• £10.54 to 2017
• Opted in to a VO survey on financial products that seems a lot more lucrative than usual
• Most of the housework done already

Happy weekend gang :beer:
