Biscuit of the day (BOTD)
What is your favourite biscuit? What biscuit will you be having with elevensies? What biscuit do you hate? What do you call a garibaldi?

I'm catching up with one of my team tomorrow. I'll use that as my opening question...
Hey Dave, what's the poop today?
Phil Westlake, who used to design IT systems for several large UK companies.
That's who.
I get that a lot of my IT colleagues don't want to faff around with self hosting email, or even running their own domain. But I really struggle with the idea that those who work in IT would ever trust their email to their ISP. That's just asking for trouble.
The rose bush has done really well this year, producing a huge number of flowers. I dead-headed it at the weekend and I am expecting a second flowering later in the year.
One of our bushes appears to have died. I gave it a good prune in October and I think that's what went and killed it. I checked a few branches and they were bone dry. I need to check the main trunk and see if there is any life left in it or if I should bite the bullet and pull it out.
Our buddleia has grown so voraciously that it has collapsed in the windy weather we have had over the last few days. I didn't prune it back enough in the spring.
I had to check it wasn’t April 1st.
Fair play to them, if they think they can do better elsewhere then have at it.
They aren't Discos unless the corners of your mouth are burning.
I sometimes think this is because of commercial real-estate, the death of the high-street, Pret not making as much money, etc.
But more often than not I think that it is because MPs and CEOs don't actually like spending time with their families. Their work is their hobby, they don't want to be 'home with the kids', and they like the office culture they have developed over their career. In the office they are important. At home they have to do the dishes.
I don't get up Clifton much - I haven't tried there yet. I'll need to remember it next time I am in need of a burger. Thanks!
"Concerns" - sure, be concerned but let the trial play out. That's the point of a trial, to assess if something works or not.
The problem with MPs is that they continually ignore facts in favour of stupidity.
It usually has rye flour in it to give it a bit more je ne sais quoi
I concur, but what type of salt and vinegar?
- Discos: Not as good as they were when I were a lad.
- Walkers: Consistently ok.
- Kettle: Good if you are feeling a bit posh, but the balsamic vinegar can be overwhelming.
- McCoy's Ridge Cut: Excellent.
You might want to go to specsavers... they can probably help you with that.
