Ian @fullmetalaardvark.bsky.social · 11/01/2025A bit of a surprise day. I told you guys I’m helping coach a local swimming club. They had a race meet. I wasn’t going to be able to go as I was seeing my daughter. Over lunch she said let’s go watch, see what they’re like. She has sent me her observations…. 43 of them 🤦♂️🤣🥰 010 0
Ian @fullmetalaardvark.bsky.social · 18/12/2024Went for a swim and grabbed a takeaway on the way back. Guy stuffed 4 fortune cookies in the bag 020 0

Ian @fullmetalaardvark.bsky.social · 01/12/2024Opinions/advice, please. Thinking about getting an Apple laptop. Most work I do is on Windows but some work has come up where Mac is client’s preference. MacBook Air? Pro? Not sure I need anything fancy, 16Gb and 512Gb disk should be fine. TIA 000 0
Ian @fullmetalaardvark.bsky.social · 24/11/2024Not a great day, so far. Okay lunch was good, saw Gladiator 2…was okay, not sure I’d put it up with the first one. Drove home, road was flooded, so I’ve parked my car, put on my wellies and walked home. Not really feeling the love, right now 😩 010 0
Ian @fullmetalaardvark.bsky.social · 24/11/2024Lunch before movie. First in Pizza Express. “Do you have a table?” The waitress looks around a completely empty restaurant…🤣🤦♂️ So it’s calzone then Gladiator 2…. 000 0

Ian @fullmetalaardvark.bsky.social · 20/11/2024New laptop day. Work has given me a new laptop to build. Strange how world has changed since Covid. Before it would’ve been an IT function 100%, now there’s a lot more self-service (the IT team did a lot of the hard work/clever thinking before they let me loose…) 🤦♂️🤣 010 0
Ian @fullmetalaardvark.bsky.social · 15/11/2024Just had to post a letter, so came out to coffee shop. They’re playing Christmas music! 😳 Mind you, I spotted these on sale last night when I did a quick shop… Easter biscuits! 000 0
Ian @fullmetalaardvark.bsky.social · 13/11/2024I’m new to BlueSky. Loving all the accounts to follow packs. To those producing them, thank you! Lots of great accounts I’ve only just found. Thank you 🙏 000 0
Ian @fullmetalaardvark.bsky.social · 13/11/2024One of the joys of staying away overnight is watching the 📺 I’m watching ITV3 and I’m about 25 years too young for the adverts! So far adverts for: Funeral expenses Mobility scooter Funky chairs What do you think, dentures and leakproof pants next? 😳🤦♂️ 000 0
Ian @fullmetalaardvark.bsky.social · 13/11/2024So an update on my evening. I posted on twitter I was on a course and staying overnight. The hotel has some similarities to Fawlty Towers 😳🤦♂️ Had supper. Hmmm. My beef & broccoli is better. Just saying. Next course is sometime in January, will probably find another place to stay 🤔 000 0
Ian @fullmetalaardvark.bsky.social · 13/11/2024I’m slowly starting to build (rebuild?) my list of who I was following on Twitter. Everyone else having that same pleasure? It does feel a bit like a chance to spring clean…. I’ll try and write something sensible in the next day or so…. 000 0
