    I have a jumper. It works fine. You only ever need one. It lasts (barring a few stringy bits). I do partake of a coat. You do feel a bit colder as you get older and less fat. It may be different if your size trajectory works the other way with age.

    I was a lot less nesh with the internal coat.

    I have lots of coats and jackets. As well as keeping me warm and dry, if you buy the right ones they can look very stylish, and as a wise man off of here once told me, serve very well as an auxiliary handbag.

    Happened to walk past my coffee machine, and notice that I had started making a cup of coffee.

    But not finished doing it.

    Had an email about tickets for an NBA game at O2. Had a look and the cheapest tickets are £350 and none of those left. Ones left are £450 and £550 think it was.

    That's more than I paid to watch the Knicks in MSG few years back. Crazy, but majority of tickets had gone so I guess they know their market.

    Attempting the Circle Line Pub Crawl today. Wish me luck. Going to need it. Last attempt was 2007 and we didn't even make it halfway.

    I hope there are fewer pubs than there used to be. I don't remember the outcome of my only ever attempt. In fact I recall not remembering several days after it either.

    I want to try this. 10.15 seems a late start.

    I hope you don't collapse in the 2nd half like Estonia.

    The circle line isn't a circle anymore is it? Something odd happens around Edgware Road I think, not sure if that affects the challenge.

    Edit: will you be tracking it on Strava?

    Sensibly going anti-clockwise. If you make Edgware Road it will be an achievement. We could have a sweepstake on your last stop.

    Sounds similar to this, which would absolutely kill me these days.

    In far more traditionally-mundane news befitting of this thread, our fridge-freezer has finally packed up. My fault for buying a cheap one a few years back which was not designed to live in the garage. Bit more research last time might have been helpful.
