Topic: The Chit Chat Thread

The price of a pizza supper in my local chippie is now £8.90. A bag of chips is £4.50. If anything shows the state of the UK economy then it’s this.

@nessisonett Posting that at 5am… good night out?

@AgentCooper Thought you were being really harsh on ness's local chippy, then it clicked you were referring to kids! 😂

@Thrillho Hahaha, I’m sure you’ll miss the days of booze and chips at 5am soon enough!

It always takes me a minute to remember that "chips" is something else to you Brits than to the rest of us

@nessisonett This week has been the first time I’ve seen 5am (outside of night shifts) for at least ten years

@RogerRoger She’s more than welcome to my DualSense now as it’s started having stick drift on the right; quite annoying when in FPS combat in Cyberpunk.

@LN78 Can’t believe the poor woman off The One Show has to pay almost a billion dollars out 😉

@AgentCooper To be fair, I received some good news on the money front so it was the first time I’d been ‘out’ out in a while. We’ve been counting the pennies for so long that it feels wrong having a little treat! Still no chance I’m spending £8.90 on a pizza supper though 😂

@nessisonett @LN78 I was talking about Alex Jones to a mate in work, and they totally thought I was on about the lady from The One Show! 😂

Can't say that I will crying any rivers for him. Right proper scumbag.

My partner pointed out Mars to me tonight, visible below the moon. She confirmed it with a sky app thing on her phone. I even fancy that we might be able to see Uranus, it's like a tiny bluish pinprick further up from the star Alberath which is on the right of the moon. Could be wrong about Uranus I suppose but where is the wonder in that? 😀

(Edit: suspected Uranus no longer visible)

@kyleforrester giving you a tag if you fancy a butchers

@ralphdibny will have a look tonight!

I just had an absolute brainfart and forgot my bank login ID (it's a number... that I just used without problems a couple hours ago) - and for some reason the bank's system won't let me recover it even though I'm entering all the correct data.

Not the biggest deal as I still have access to the account through the mobile app but if it doesn't come back to me tomorrow I'll have to call their support line and sound like I have onset dementia...

edit: nevermind - I posted this (had to, I guess) and remembered where to find it

@Voltan I locked myself out of my work pc as totally forgot my password a few weeks back. I randomly remembered my old password a few hours later, which was too late as I had already got a new password, but then I was getting the two passwords mixed up for a few days. 😂

@JohnnyShoulder
I know how you feel the other day at work I went to log into my work computer and was baffled why it kept locking until I realized I was typing my old password instead of the current one as we have to change passwords every couple months for security reasons.

Oh dear god. Bye Liz, hardly knew ya.

@nessisonett @Kairu What a mess.

@JudgeDredd A great year to have been born 😉

@Kairu He's great. Saw him a few years ago, my sister in-law was heavily pregnant at the time, so my wife and I scored some free tickets 😃

@Sable I watched that live. It was on after the watershed to be fair and the comedian was funny, but I'm sure I've seen the playing the piano with your penis gag before.

@Sable Guess I’ve found another person to add to the block list.
