    Ended up having a little drunken slide show last night. So more Nepal from '99!

    Pretty sure that’s everest taken from somewhere close to namche bazaar-ish.

    Almost the highest we went (only 3800m from memory).

    I remember all the fit kids really felt it at that altitude. I was a naughty kid smoking durries where I could w/o getting caught, I didn’t feel a thing lol. And I think that weirdly enough added to the experience for me. Sneaking off far away from the group, absolutely no one around just sitting there in the dirt staring at the views.

    After 28 years of faithful service my toaster has finally decided to call it quits. RIP little fella.

    Fortunately I have a toaster oven and was still able to cook my toast for breakfast

    fancy Saturday breakfast

        It was a Ronson. And the heating elements still work, it’s just the clip that keeps the toast down that has stopped working. Much better longevity than it’s predecessor, which was a wedding present that lasted less than one year (which is why I remember the age of the replacement!).

    I just got fucking worked over hey.

    I’ve been doing stuff by myself for so long I haven’t been pushing as hard as I should have been.

    He’s had shoulder injuries in the past as well so he knows how to strengthen that part of my body pretty well.

    Love this post workout high.

    And now I’m going to do a lower body workout by sitting on the couch and playing video games lol

        I mostly stayed away from the festivities so not to be a creepy parent , but lots of singing and dancing all night , the kids were pretty respectful. There was even a French exchange student that offered to help in the kitchen lol. All good.

    Today’s bad news: It started to rain as soon as I hung out my washing

    Today’s good news: I got my toaster working again. Lots of crumb removal and playing around with the lever and it started staying down again. Google tells me it is probably a magnet problem, and it could have been interfered with by a build up of crumbs or it could be nearing the end of its life. We will just have to wait and see.

      It was enough for me to permanently switch to Firefox. Not being able to add custom blocklists on the so-called uBlock Origin Lite (which I used to block the stupid AI Overview BS) was the last straw
