Reassured at this point that all the DWP's customer service agents are busy at the moment and I should remain on hold so they will answer my call as soon as possible.

Not the sequel to the kids book I was expecting but ok, I can roll with this.

Wanted: Monty Mole, never worn.

Ah, their later f2p stuff certainly did. Gosh, there's some big numbers.

Never really quite understood why the Donut Games stuff didn't take off. Some brilliant little games.

In other videogame news, Rat On A Skateboard just got added to the play pass and I'd forgotten how many bus rides home that and Punch Quest saw me through on the iPod.

Lost an e there. Weird.

More albums where I can almost taste the absinth whilst listening to it, please.

New Chvrches is still on daily rotation. Fucking huge early 2000's goth club thing going on with it and oh, hello.
