@xenijardin Well, they'd be flying into contaminated steam. Hopefully they're on canned air, as inhalation would be the biggest risk. in reply to xenijardin 02:26:50, 2011-03-17
Anyone know if cellophane shrinks at all when heated? I know it's not shrink-wrap, but sure I've seen it being made taut with heat. 02:27:37, 2011-03-17

Oh god, out of painkillers. Have a doctors appointment in half an hour tho. Was told Sudafed only to be used for 3 days. 10:59:38, 2011-03-17

There's men clearing out #91. Family ran b/c bailiffs. Place is trashed, owner distraught. This is why landlords should check on the homes. 12:09:49, 2011-03-17
Why is the ibuprofen not kicking in?? My brain's trying to escape through my eye sockets. D: 13:20:33, 2011-03-17
@TinyTeaDragon No not yet, I usually prefer to pan-fry in reply to TinyTeaDragon 13:35:10, 2011-03-17
Wombling makes me feel better. Just got a bunch of free bike parts from the house being cleared. 15:01:25, 2011-03-17
The house is trashed worse than any I've seen. Floorboards kicked in, holes in outside walls, damp on every wall. No wonder they legged it. 15:02:18, 2011-03-17
Back garden's full of rubbish and about 30 bicycles, most rusted solid or joined together with tangleweed. Some useful parts tho. 15:03:07, 2011-03-17
Hauled home 8 wheels and a heavy-duty BMX frame. Stripped down & rebuilt, could get a couple of pairs good wheels out of them. 15:09:24, 2011-03-17
BMX frame probably better choice for the horse-trike, but also has dual-pivot side-pull callipers on, which will fit my new bike frame. 15:10:49, 2011-03-17
They'll be back to finish clearing tomorrow at 8. I will prepare my toolkit to grab a few more parts. Also will provide tea & ty biscuits. 15:13:21, 2011-03-17

Perhaps I should collect 3 sizes of Bovril instead. I'd actually consume that. 500, 250 & 125g. 875g of Bovril. That's a lot of salty goo. 01:11:35, 2011-03-16

Japan has been creating an excellent bad news week. It's made a fine cover for Ghadaffi to start shelling civilian targets, but what else? 15:45:56, 2011-03-16
There is no country in the world that doesn't leap at a chance like this to sweep shit under the rug. So what else is going on right now?? 15:47:11, 2011-03-16

Japan's famous for them, so where are all the disaster robots that could be helping out instead of letting the Fukashima50 get microwaved? 22:25:36, 2011-03-16
If it's a question of power supply, didn't they already fly out diesel generators they can't use that are presumably now sitting idle? 22:26:48, 2011-03-16
