    Another solo trivia night and at a brand new venue. The big crowds must be because of the tine of year. Once I got everything set up it went smoothly

      Love hearing about this!! I love seeing the different people at trivia from the fanatics to the people just using it as an excuse to drink. A quiz host once told me about doing a corporate event for a lawyer firm and it was one of the most soul draining experiences of her life

        It’s interesting seeing the difference in teams as well. The team that usually wins at my regular spot is a about 8 people from one family so they have a whole range of general knowledge to draw from

    I spent all afternoon and evening weeping lol, I think I have more tears to weep. Soon enough I’ll get back on the job hunting wagon and send out apps, but for now I shall wallow and distract myself with games.

    Thank you for your kind words and support, I really appreciate every single one of you 💜💜💜

    I made seitan today, which is basically gluten protein that acts like meat. I made a two little slabs of it and am treating them like pork belly - sliced and fried. This time I put it all through the mincer before cooking which really helped to break up the gluten. The first efforts were almost impossible to cut with a knife. I should get some sausage casing and try to make snags out of it.

    Anyone got a meat smoker they’d be prepared to run a piece through to see what happens? I don’t care if it shares the space with meat.

    Made it down the bellarine for a few days for some time off. Dins!

    was stung by a bee taking that lol. Gaffer tape, tea towel and ice (and hydrocortisone) to the rescue.

    Edit that’s an outdoor sink the indoor one is more messy.

      That sucks! The way you speak about Mickey and pets in general, I can’t think of anyone better suited for the role. What more could they possibly want?! I know it might not help much to hear this now, but please keep trying and don’t give up.

      Your chance will come, lovely. It will. And when it does you are going to be incredible at it.

      You can hide away and lick your wounds for a day or two but we’re not going to let you wallow. ❤️

    I got a win today. I found out that there was illegal reselling of one of our vendors products online at multiple legitimate retailers.

    Emailed director. Director rang vendor slt. Vendor product manager is going to contact the major retailers to take down the ads asap.

    Simon gets a fucking victory.

      Yes, I leave Melbcat with a wrapped hot water bottle on cold days and would either have cooling run well before (or left on low if I’ll be out for long) on a hot day.

      I’d worry about overheating at her age and you want your pet to be comfortable.
