Like I just said on FF, I've done a frankly disgusting lack of work today because of the two forums and the tomfoolery that has taken place today.

Missus thinks I've lost the plot because I've been sat reading posts and cackling to myself like Beavis and Butthead.

A scene that's replicated across not606 browsing homes nationwide I reckon.

Missus 'What are you laughing at ?'
Me 'er...nothing, just something on not606'
Missus 'What is it then ?'
Me 'It's just a gif of a dog sticking its head up the arse of a cow'

Missus walks away rolling her eyes bemoaning the fact that she's married to a 12 year old.

Woken up by a pigeon perched on the windowsill outside my bedroom. **** will be lucky to not find itself on the whats for dinner thread, poached with a little side salad.

Now I'm up it's phone upgrade day. Wanted a Huawei but been put off them with recebt occurrences. Anyone recommend something reasonably priced on contract (not a Samsung or iPhone).

Samsung S8 would be cheap as on a contract, I'm using mine right now. Brilliant phone.

Bypass the S9 though. S10 will be expensive at the minute, will be getting one in July.

Don't look beyond a Samsung mate.

I'm using a samsung s8 as we speak. Been a good servant but the charge port has died now and I'm having to charge wirelessly, plus the screen is a bit ****ed.

Tempted to just say gimme another one of these and knock some money off my bill. Im paying about 50 quid a month at the minute having got this phone very soon after it came out <doh>
 
Mine is in mint condition.

I'd sell you it but my eldest son is frothing at the mouth at the prospect of having it!

He will then duly break the screen.

Going to have the S10+, I rarely use this in the day as I've got a smaller Samsung work phone, so might as well have the benefit of larger screen on my own one.

It's all good brother, I'm hoping EE will chuck me a new handset today and knock 15-20 quid a month off my bill anyway. Good will gesture since they've been dry ****ing me in the arse for the past 24 months.

I'm going to look at that when my contract runs out in the Autumn, currently have Huwawei something or other, it's really good and I'm only paying £18 a month for it but they've shot up since I had that offer.
 
One of the cats has just brought a sparrow in.

It’s just spent 20 mins flying round the house banging into windows.

It finally knocked itself out and I got hold of it and put it outside on a wall. Looked like it was about to kark it but then suddenly woke up and flew off.

I remember as a teenager our house backed off to woods... ****ing murder chasing live birds round the house.

Glad it was still alive though.
 
I remember playing the wag at school and we were walking along the train tracks and somebody picked a dead bird up and chucked it at my head. ****ing stung like a bitch and put a little lump on my head.

Can't picture a bird flying around the house without thinking of that Irish family chasing that bat around.

One of the best videos ever.

What a terrible morning. Went to upgrade my phone after they called me yesterday to say I coukd have a free upgrade 6 weeks early. Get to EE and they point out they forgot to tell me that it was only a free upgrade if I was willing to increase my monthly tarriff.

Stormed over to Sainsburys in a rage looking to purchase a new Brita filter just so the drive wasn't totally wasted, only to be stopped be a bloke with free tasters trying to force some Waldord Salad upon me. The ****. Do i look like a man who dabbles in Waldorf Salad? Safe to say it took plenty of self restraint to not fly into a muay thai kick right into his prick.

It's what the internet was invented for.

I've got one of those bobble jugs that filter the water. Apparently the ones made from BPA plastic aren't so good (something to do with chemicals leeching into the water) Anyway the filtered water is good, but the filters cartridges are ****ing expensive.

Picked up a brita drinks bottle too. No more hard water consumption for me at work.

I believe in healthy living. I owned a decent size CBD company for about 16 month but I had to give it up in March on account of my mental health. I still take it every day. I filter all my water, I even use that to fill the kettle up. I eat very little meat these days and I've got a big back garden which the top half is being turned into an allotment so I can grow my own food.

****ing hell we are alike. I only eat meat once or twice a week. Ive packed in beef and fish totally. All because of watching Cowspiracy, really woke me up. I'd love to be vegan but I'm just not prepared to be miserable.

That said if everyone ate meat once twice a week our environment would be in a much better state.
