1.hello from the surrey hills
- we are camping and it is raining, a lot
- i just barbecued some smoked mackerel fillets and oh my god. then they got rained on and we ate them in the car
- last time we came here apple maps navigated us to a dead end seven miles away and then said “you have arrived”, very clearly nowhere near the pin on the map
- imagine being gaslit by apple maps
- this time we got it to give directions to the pub in the village
- we put a kettle on and almost immediately ran out of butane. and then it got rained on
- i love it here
2. i sold a lens to a friend of a friend
- i basically never sell anything apart from to CeX
- the whole deal was struck via twitter dm, it was very civilised
- i spent half an hour scouring the office for a box of the right size that i hoped might have been abandoned on March 12th 2020
- eventually i found an amazon box for a logitech mouse. thanks gallal
3. did another minecraft “speed”run
- with gallal and rowan and luke and chris
- i’m on my phone can’t be fucked with hyperlinks sorry lads
- i tried to solo the nether again and died, a lot, this time
- next time we’re instituting a “no villages” rule so most of the group don’t spend their time camping
- im not salty i just died a lot okay
4. my small eurorack case is dead
- idk what happened one day it just didn’t turn on
- i tried taking it apart and it turns out epoxying the power supply to the case isn’t helpful maybe
- i broke the bus board clean in half. lol
- i can rebuild her. stronger. faster. I have the technology
5. i am trying to write this on my phone and wow is it bad
- who even wrote this blog app
