Nice visit off Sammie today before she disappears abroad for 6-months in a few days time! ðŸĪŊ

Circumstances have culminated in ending our premature scavenger hunt with kiddo having her Ukelele early ðŸŽļ It was supposed to be an Easter gift next weekend, but she was committed to taking £5.32 in coppers back to her Mum's house to put towards her savings to buy it herself! 😂🙈

02/04/2023 @14:48
Popped out in this lovely sunshine to grab a Starbucks with Lysh ðŸĨ°☕

03/04/2023 @23:56
Walking back home after a typically unconventional Scott birthday celebration which largely consisted of the birthday girl arguing with her siblings! 🙈😂 Happy 25th Embem! Love ya! ❤

Second day in a row where I've come to work with unstyled hair and the intent to get it cut... only to discover the barbers is closed! 💈

04/04/2023 @09:35
I won't hold my breath for an apology from all those people in my life who berated me and implied I was some irrational conspiracy theorist for ever doubting the lockstep parroting of "safe and effective" by media and the Government...

The hair hath been cut.

07/04/2023 @18:00
Just finished Sable at the 11hr mark. What an enchanting and visually mesmerising experience ðŸĪ who needs alcohol to enjoy a Bank Holiday?

08/04/2023 @10:04
Proper Easter scavenger hunt complete with Lysh ðŸĪŠðŸ°ðŸŦ


08/04/2023 @16:42
Take Lysh to Ivy's 10th birthday at Knypersley Cricket Club. She gets hot and sweaty, so goes outside for some fresh air and I find her trying set up a Pinterest account loool. Get back in there and enjoy the party ffs! 😂


08/04/2023 @20:15
Walked back from Biddulph to compensate for being a lazy cunt yesterday since I was off for Bank Holiday ðŸ‘Ģ

"In real life, true love doesn't end with a wedding; it ends with a funeral." - Call of the Sea

09/04/2023 @23:21
Completed Sable on Friday, Adios on Saturday, and Lego Builders Journey, Sludge Life, and Call of the Sea today. After 127hrs of Persona, been hammering out these short titles on my pending games list.


10/04/2023 @23:45
Started off Far Cry 5 with a casual 8hr binge.

11/04/2023 @22:16
Always a pleasure to have a little tea date with Oooft ðŸĨ° and nice to have a change of scenery at The Furlong ðŸĨĐ🍗🍚


15/04/2023 @11:31
Ilysha just told me that as part of teaching body positivity in schools, they're going to start having adults come in and strip naked to show kids how different bodies are. I'm sorry, what... so I Google it, and it's a Channel 4 tv show called Naked Education... what even in the Jimmy Saville is going on?!

15/04/2023 @17:56
Been a lovely day out with Lysh to end the Easter holidays. We went Odeon to watch the new Super Mario Bros Movie, then popped in to grab a quick Costa, and had a wander around to Brindley Farm to fill our bellies ðŸŋ☕ðŸī


15/04/2023 @20:44
In less than a month, I will have fully repaid my debts from a foolish period of my life ðŸĪ—🏆


16/04/2023 @16:32
Some mad games on this Itch.io that me & Frog have watched people playing on YouTube, and now we get to have a thrash ourselves ðŸŽŪ😅


16/04/2023 @20:25
Lysh has just melted my heart with this message ðŸĨ°ðŸ’•



17/04/2023 @09:11
It's essential to slow down and appreciate the simple beauty in life that we so often overlook, like the beautiful iridescence of a mallards head, a pigeons chest, and a magpies tail.

19/04/2023 @00:54
Was about to go bed an hour ago, then Far Cry 5 did that annoying thing where it teleports you into a story mission and locks you into a quest sequence you cannot bail out of ðŸĪĶ🏞‍♂️ oh well, Jacob 'Only You' Seed and Faith 'Amazing Grace' Seed are both dead at least ðŸ’Ŋ

19/04/2023 @12:44
You are financially worse off due to myopic Quantitative Easing following Brexit, the reckless £400bn Covid spending on lockdowns and furlough etc., the incessant chasing of unrealistic Net Zero targets due to Climate Change doomsayers which has increased the UK's reliance on global energy markets, and the Russian Sanctions over their invasion of Ukraine. You may not like it, but it is what it is ðŸ’Ŋ

19/04/2023 @22:53
Matt Rife and Paul Smith are two of my favourite comedians at present 😂

21/04/2023 @00:27
I might mop up a few low hanging fruit trophies, but aside from that, Far Cry 5 is complete ðŸŽŪðŸ’Ŋ

21/04/2023 @00:32
Happy Birthday again arr kid ðŸŧ

21/04/2023 @10:50
Oh, the irony.



21/04/2023 @14:59
RIP Shaun James, fucking hell 💔😞

"What is your Dad's fixation with calories?"
Not being fat, obviously 🙃

22/04/2023 @11:20
Turn around, Lysh casually giving herself love bites on her forearms... what even is life? ðŸĪĶ🏞‍♂️

22/04/2023 @18:34
Had a lovely afternoon for Lowen's 1st Birthday at Trent Tavern; Lysh loved playing on the bouncy castle all afternoon. All was fun and games until 2x local reprobate kids starting launching Coke cans and plastic bottles at me and daring me to retaliate! Bullied by a 9yr old ffs! ðŸĪŽ

Lazy day with the lad... and his RIF 🙄



24/04/2023 @20:46
Tough Mudder 2023? Put me in coach!

25/04/2023 @21:05
Nice bit of food across Moorland with Stace, Emma & Jord ðŸī🐟🍟




26/04/2023 @09:22
Waking up late at 09:08 was not on todays agenda.

26/04/2023 @21:18
OlliOlli World is a deceptively frustrating game, simply because it requires reconditioning your autopilot to not use the "X" button to jump! ðŸŽŪ

Any simp #buyingcontent from adult-subscription platforms like OnlyFans or Fansly should be treated as a vulnerable customer.

"Did your brain miss a software update, you slow bastard." 😂

28/04/2023 @20:17
Frog has decided that she won't go Scarlett's party unless I go too, meaning I may be spending 3-4hrs tomorrow sat up the corner of a kids party bored 🙃

29/04/2023 @09:18
Morning, kiddos stripped all her wall decor and started pulling the glow in the dark stars off her ceiling. Decided she wants change her room. Can I go back bed?

29/04/2023 @14:26
Another absolute meltdown off kiddo because of her refusal to brush her teeth fml. Now she's having a panic attack, saying she hates me, and she doesn't want to go her friends 10th birthday party that we need to leave for in the next half hour... because I asked her to brush her teeth... she escalated it to a full blown argument over me "not trusting her"... and by that, I pointed out that she had said "if you get me an electric toothbrush, I'll brush them" so I got her an Oral B... then it was "I don't like this toothpaste, if you get the same as at my Mum's..." so I got the same as at her Mums... then it was "I don't like the Oral B toothbrush, if you get me a Fairywill toothbrush, then I'll happily brush my teeth..." so I bought her a damn Fairywill toothbrush... now she refuses brush her teeth because she needs the strawberry Peppa Pig toothpaste she used to have at her Nans! ðŸĪŽðŸ˜Ī

29/04/2023 @19:03
Lysh dressed as Nezuko and taking an Easter Egg as Scarlett's present because her Mum forgot to buy Scarlett a gift... we were gonna nip B&M but the taxi turned up late, and it was raining so called it off. Then the taxi gets lost and drives up the wrong side of Station Road, costing extra money to double back on itself to find the venue. Party was decent, loads of Frog's mates there including Gracie. Halfway through the party, Lysh ends up on the step outside, overheating in her Nezuko cosplay, and saying she doesn't feel welcome and wants to go home - fuck knows why, she'd been having fun from what I'd observed! 😖 so I end up running round Sainsburys get her a pack of Nik Naks & a diet Coke, and then she was okay to stay until the end 😂 in fact, Louise Fox (Scarlett's Mum) gave us a lift home after, so we ended up staying until literally the last people there were leaving ðŸĪĢ


29/04/2023 @21:04
It's not about a pissed up Pete hammering on my front door after being dropped off in a police car, angling to come inside and detail his days shenanigans and tales of woes and fighting - meanwhile Frog is stood in a towel, dripping everywhere after rushing out the bath panicking at the sound of him banging on the door! ðŸĪŽ

30/04/2023 @10:11
Weird dreams last night including sex with Kym, Sian admitting that she was previously in love with me, and having to fight some random roadmen on my Mum's doorstep to protect Charlie from them... ðŸĪŊ🙃

30/04/2023 @16:45
Apparently sausage sandwiches don't taste the same on Sunday's or Tuesday's, so Lysh is having a meltdown at the prospect of having it for tea... despite insisting that I buy a specific type of sausages she likes, and the specific bread she likes... on top of the fact she still hasn't had a single meal cooked in the air fryer she insisted I buy... hard not to get annoyed sometimes! ðŸ˜Ī

30/04/2023 @18:01
Frog has decided she wants change her room around; now she's crying because her bed won't fit where she wants it, and it's somehow my fault... 🙄

30/04/2023 @20:26
Been playing with water for the first time in a while with bug... aaaand as predicted, I'm left to tidy it all up, whilst she vegs on the sofa with her phone
