Watched The Beekeeper aka Jason Statham just wants a quiet life but that’s not the way life goes #33 🍿
A Möbius strip walks into a bar, crying.
The bartender asks, “What’s the matter?”
The Möbius strip replies, “Oh, where do I even begin?”

Struggle to relax at home. Sitting outside the shop I bought a Gatorade after my walk feels the only time in the day I can.
Think, so far, this is my favourite. Constantly chuckling at it. Forced myself to put it down. I guess that I’m Stinge Reading it!

I’ve started recording the things I’ve watched but it’s a bit plain. Does anyone else do this on their Micro.blog? I know there are other websites but I don’t want to do that. Basically, can we have a Bookshelf but for TV and films?!

Slough House Book 5. I could read these forever. I think I will. Reread Book 4 this week and while the story wasn’t the best, still enjoyed it.
a term time shadow
of myself, and my glory
a choice I have made
I feel like a different person in the holidays. Like work takes so much of me that I am a shadow of myself during term time.
We’re enjoying the new Mr and Mrs Smith a lot. It’s strange but I’m really enjoying it.
In the spirit of ‘Stinge Watching’, we watched the original Mr and Mrs Smith last night to drag it out a bit. It was ok but I much prefer the new one.
Looking for suggestions for albums to put on in the background.
What album do you like to put on for some background noise?
Morning walk with the 20kg weight vest I’ve borrowed from the school gym.
Highlight was seeing a coupler of people get out of a car opposite a park to go running, in the dark, at 6am.
You just know it when you see “your people” eh?
It’s 8am and the kids are still in bed! BEST START TO THE HOLIDAY EVER! Just half-listening to a webinar on Enhancing Classroom Talk in International Schools while having a coffee and chatting to a friend.
First day of the Chinese New Year holiday and I’ve been wide awake since 5:30. I like to get up early when I want to but not when I need to!
I ran again! Been a decent week of exercise. HITT on Monday, heavy deadlifts (4x3 at 150kg) yesterday and a 5km run today.
The Korean boys in my class won’t be happy today.

Loving almost everything about the new Gladiators on the BBC. All the positivity from the Gladiators is great. Legend’s pure arrogance and Viper as the new Wolf are so much fun too. đź“ş
A phone sized e-reader… I definitely don’t need this but do like it! Thanks for the rabbit hole Rob!
Wonka - We all enjoyed this a lot. Percy Jackson and The Olympians - Fun! We’re reading the books but it’s slow going. Quantum Leap Season 2 - It’s alright, I’ll keep watching it. Echo - We’ve watched the first episode but haven’t found time for the second. 🎬
My new coffee brew timer is The Offsping’s - All I Want. Which at 1:55 of shouty noise is a little short but I can count to fiver and I’m sure James Hoffman won’t mind for his Clever Dripper method.
I think I get bonus points for managing to use it as a cold shower timer too.
