I remember having to switch servers because it turned out the one I was on was somehow 'bad' which okay in theory it is good that you can do that but also it is easier not to have the choice and feel like you're responsible for that?

unfortunately just makes me think of that bloke from Leicester who did his whole flat up like this. his ex-wife flogged it after he got banged up on child pornography charges.

isn't it that the limits on an ISA are how much you can put in *per year*, and if you were maxing that out for a few years you would start earning more than ยฃ1000 interest which would still be tax free?

To be fair to Marlow I was unconvinced that the train station indicated on the map wasn't going to be like an occasional heritage steam train or something and it turns out you can actually get a (very small) modern day train to Maidenhead and rejoin society that way.

Walking a bit of the Thames path near Marlow and a genuine first: saw a man walking his dog and drinking an actual glass of red wine. Amazing.

The one I find weird was The Fast & The Furious which starts badly, gets even worse, it took until the 4th one to reunite the original stars and it is an absolutely dogshit movie but somehow made a bazillion dollars and then the next one was actually pretty good?

I still have a soft spot for GB2 because as a 5 year old essentially it was like going to see The Real Ghostbusters: The Movie.
