Ordering Starbucks coffee on a delivery app is surely the height of laziness.
Dude, just walk 10 feet into the kitchen. There’s a kettle and coffee right there!
Another Review of a Dubious Nature
Earlier in the year, I reviewed some dubious flavoured beer but alluded to the fact I had some more items to look out.
Finally, here they are and only somewhat out of date! Crisps flavoured like soft drink, and chocolate flavoured like crisps. Embedded video under the cut or head over to Youtube.

Double!
Slightly miffed. Atkinson’s car park in Sheffield used to be dirt cheap on evenings and Sundays – only 50p per hour. A new tariff started this weekend and it’s now £1 per hour!
They’re still cheaper than most of the other car parks in the city centre, so I’ll probably continue to park there.
John Lewis “next day” delivery
Thurs 19:50 – thanks for your order.
Thurs 22:15 – we’ve packed your order.
Fri 04:36 – we’ve dispatched your order.
Fri 10:40 – LOL, JK! We’ve not even processed it yet!
Cunts.
London Problems
I’ve been to London more times than I care to imagine. The problem is I’ve done all the tourist stuff I want to see, so any visits I make have turned into “which suburb have I not been to yet?”. I’ve got a forthcoming visit to go to a gig, so need to kill time in the day. For no particular reasons, I’m considering one of these random locations to drop into:
- Dagenham
- Eltham
- Penge
Other suggestions (to go to or to avoid) would be entertained, comment away!
I’ll be sure to enjoy the delicious salty taste
Slightly Ironic
Made a check on the spam comment folder in the webshite backend.
Funny to see the only post that’s getting spam comments is one about getting spam comments.
Crap Website of the Week
Northern Trains’s Delay Repay portal where deleting a redundant entry from an address field doesn’t actually delete it!
I presume the lack of postal correspondence from them is a result of them thinking I now live at:
<New number and street name>
<Old street name>
<Old suburb>
<New post town>
<New postcode>
I’d have hoped number and postcode would have been sufficient for the post, but, never mind.
Wonderful British Railways
Made a relatively easy journey by rail yesterday (Chesterfield to Headingley). Let’s see how that went.
- Itinerary 1: Chesterfield to Sheffield cancelled – broken overhead power lines.
- Itinerary 2: Sheffield to Leeds cancelled – no train crew.
- Itinerary 3: Leeds to Headingley cancelled – broken train.
Fairly well then, only arrived two and a half hours later than planned.
Attack, attack, attack (is what they lack)
Looking at the webshite logs, it appears I’ve ended up on the l33t hax0rs brute-force attempt list. Multiple failed attempts to log in using a variety of user names. Not that they would have ever got in, seeing as I’ve deliberately used a long password and 2FA.
It’s clogging up my logs and using precious bandwidth anyway so some black magic is now in place which should stop that in future.
