This seems like a ruse for you to get some uninterrupted reading time! Good luck with the surgery. Btw you'll never miss it once it's gone.

People don’t realize how serious the situation is.

It reminded me of a friend who when applying for a place at an integrated school who had to guess which religious background to specify on the form in order to increase the chance of the application being accepted.

I know nothing about the logistics, but that does seem like a big hurdle to overcome!

Good luck. Good luck with getting your health sorted too.

I go to Spanish classes there. Fools me into thinking I'm being healthy before having a standard beer.

Are you scarred from experiences of Salamanca and Valladolid. Didn't you used to live in Salamanca?

Thanks. Both are within walking distance from our hotel...

Slightly cheeky, but nothing more.

I was a child when it was on. You were probably a young adult who had more interesting things to do than watch telly.

Sanchez Romate. It was the only dry sherry the local off-licence had. Normally we buy sherry online, but we really fancied a fino tonight and realised we had run out, so decided to #shopLocal. Going to Spain in a fortnight, so need to acclimatise.

Sean D @seand.me.uk · 02/10/2026
This thread is part of the reason why we went out and bought a bottle of Fino. The bottle is now empty.

Kinnegar Low Tide is my low alcohol beer of choice. Is one of the few I've had that tastes nice.

They are relaxing various other rules, so it wouldn't be a surprise...

I'll never turn down a glass of PX, though having it along with olive oil (instead of balsalmic vinegar) or poured over ice cream is probably my preferred method of consumption.

Sean D @seand.me.uk · 02/10/2026
Yeah, though I could live quite happily with the ones that are only made from the Palomino Fino. I tend to only drink the others at the end of a sherry tasting!

Impressive. I thought the 15yr old t-shirt that I regularly wear was old!

"Inform, Educate, Entertain". This programme does none of those in my (tbf completely untypical) opinion.

I suspect those who received the glasses didn't complain.

You needed a wider variety of grapes to generate that.

There have been new series since then. Is repeated on BBC4 every Monday. This week's was from 1980.

I've just remembered the time when there was a restaurant that served venison. I didn't hold back in expressing my worries that I thought it was a little deer.

It's still awkward when no-one else is on camera.

This is similar to me complaining that my empty glass is "broken".

I feel for the poor guy who put his camera on when no-one else didn't.

This same approach happens in IT and explains why most modern software is awful.

They followed both my Bluesky accounts, and then unfollowed my other one. With these types of thing my view is "live and let live". If they don't post anything of interest and don't spam me, I just tend to ignore them.

Oh ok. Thought there was more to it from some of the comments.
