Unfortunately, this has happened, and MCM Comic Con has been cancelled for the rest of the year. Birmingham was originally postponed from March, but I chose not to take their offer of rescheduling my tickets since the hotels were too expensive during that period. London also got postponed and I was originally going to consider…

Shower
Shower drain finally unblocked. Looks like this had been slowly happening for a long time (like YEARS). We tried everything from caustic soda, bleach, plughole unblockers, even this thing None of them worked until we got someone in to look and they narrowed it down to the joining pipe leading to the sewer pipe. When…
Annus Horribilis
It’s been one shitty year so far, and the past few weeks have been even worse. COVID-19, job cuts, pay cuts, redundancies, early termination of contractors, followed by my car getting wrecked, and being unable to test drive a new car due to showrooms being locked down, and now, my shower drains are blocked and…
Planet Zoo
I’ve been playing Magic the Gathering: Arena for a while, but since Ikoria came out, I’ve been consistently losing everything. The game no longer carries any fun so I’ve ditched that for something more relaxing and casual. Planet Zoo. It’s a game where you build and maintain a zoo and in Franchise mode you setup…

Bye Bye, My Darling
My car finally got picked up by the salvage agent, and in the pouring rain. My insurance advised me the difference in insurance cover will be refunded, but since I have only one car on the insurance, my cover is terminated. Not surprising since I only have one car and since I have NO car…
Scrimping, Scrapping, and Saving
With the Covid pandemic not looking like it’s going to end anytime soon, I’m really looking to reduce any unnecessary spends. This isn’t helped with by the fact my car got wrecked by an idiot who had been drinking — that’s cause him at least $10,000 of claims against his insurance which he can’t realistically…
Pizza Madness
So today I decided to order a pizza lunch for the house. I went and ordered two mediums, and two portions of garlic bread, one with cheese and one without. Ordered from Pizza Hut. Pizza Hut then called me to say they were out of garlic bread and what would I like to replace them…
