Nice evening yesterday actually. Thai at the Osbourne Arms, followed by makb3th at the Junction, which cjwatson has described pretty well. It really was rather good, although I felt like I was missing lots. I think it was just a shame the audience wasn't bigger. And I don't think the interactive laptops worked very well, but never mind. I now have a key with an * on, which I'm not quite sure what to do with but want to keep. After that we headed on up to the Carlton to join people for a drink. Nice to meet Simon's friend Sarah, and sorry if we were a bit overwhelming all turning up in a horde like that. After that then home and geek for a bit then bed. Interesting. Not enough sleep mind, and too much beer. I suspect the last couple of days have rather scotched my chances of losing any weight this week but never mind. I'll get back there, so long as I'm not going repeatedly the wrong way it's not a problem

Need to sort out bike though: it's still not correctly picking up the tension in the chain when I change up a gear, and sometimes leaves it loose enough to drop off the front chainring. Easy to fix, but a nuisance, especially when it's as mucky as it is at the moment. Chainbath on order to help fix this last aspect anyway.

What you need is a shoebox for Keeping Things In. I have one, & it's v useful. (contains stuff right from when I was tiny).

Surely Things are Kept In Tins? Well, mine are, so that's obviously the Right Thing.

*My* Things are kept in a Shoebox. For I have no tins. Clearly this is a great lack in my life. Curses.

Oh no: I do have a Hamlet cigar tin, of the sort that you get in pubs with individually-wrapped cigars in. I keep loose tea in it. Is that a Thing?

I do tend to collect stuff that way, though I have much less of it than I used to because I spent a couple of years moving around and being very ruthless about it. In this case I think I'd quite like to attach it to a key ring though. If it doesn't end up too bulky. I get annoyed just at the bulk of all the keys I have to carry around as it is.
