Dirty Deeds Around Town #dreamdiary 201

I’m lying at home in bed. I’ve got a nice pillow stuffed down the back of my boxer shorts to give my bum a bit of curvy bounce. I’m thinking of putting a duvet in at the other side to give my front a nice hourglass figure. Then I find myself lying on the floor at work in the stockroom. I’m peering through the glass in the door to the sales floor dreading the moment that any lights come on indicating that someone is coming to find me but I can’t seem to move myself or come up with a credible reason as to why I didn’t go home the night before. Oddly, I would have tripped the automatic alarm but it doesn’t seem like I’ve been doing much moving about anyway. Then I wake up and discover that nothing at all has been stuffed down my shorts. It’s all natural.

The Point #devils daughter 24

At the back of the church was a cast iron statue, painted in gold, in the shape of Jesus. It was one of those statues that looked expensive, but was quite cheap to produce in mass production. It was hard and it looked like it would do the job. She began crawling across the red carpet towards it. It was a bit of relief not resting them on the marble, but the sensation f rubbing them on a new material began to stimulate her plate-sized nipples. She couldn’t quite lift her boobs over the pews. As she brushed them, they were big enough to push them back a few inches, but they would have to go over them at some point since they were taller in mass. Luke wouldn’t feel a thing. In fact he might be squashed a little, but she didn’t want him to see what she was up to.

Escape From Town #dreamdiary 200

I’ve come to a university town to take on an escape room. I’ve had to come on my own but my main reason for going is that one of my friends runs it. I’ve decided to go in fancy dress but my friend has decided to let me change in her flat rather than me wear a ridiculous costume on the train. I fail the challenge and get locked in, then I go to my friend’s flat to get changed again. I suddenly realise that there’s no way that I can make the last train home, though I might make the last connecting train to the city and I might be able to haggle for a taxi or a lift. I’m running across rooftop gardens to try and make the train, and I’m considering running up steps and jumping over fences to a montage of Journey’s Don’t Stop Believing. If I can make it back to her flat before she moves onto her night job, there’s a chance that I can spend the night in it rather than a roofless night in the city.

Halloween: Feel the Pressure

This game was written nearly four years ago. I’ll be impressed if it’s still in operation. I guess a lot of these third-party features realise that they’re no longer going to make any money off it any more and pull the plug on the platform. But it works. It starts with spooky sounds but Alexa’s introduction is a bit annoying as she puts long sentences into annoying pauses which makes them difficult to understand at times. The phonetic alphabet isn’t one used internationally, it contains inappropriate words and it sounds like one that the creators made up. They’re not hard questions but get one wrong and you have to start again. I’m often asked for my final answer, but it’s strange that it doesn’t always ask it. When I do give it, it’s not going to be my final answer because if I get it right, I’m asked another question straight after.

Bosherton Beer

The car park was a mass of slate crazy paving that had been left to overgrow, and what was once used as natural lines was now no more. We walked past the slate buildings used to host a toilet block, and followed the road up the hill to the main road. At the church, we turned left, and walked past a local social club where people were sitting outside in deckchairs enjoying the sunshine. The pub was nicely painted, and it would have been nice to stay inside to cool off, but the weather was too tempting and we sat on a picnic bench in the car park. We had a simple meal of sandwiches and chips since we’d brought a locally made baguette with us in case they weren’t serving food. We chatted to the group of bikers next to us, and they were impressed that we’d managed to walk this far.

 

"To succeed, you need to find something to hold onto, something to motivate you, something to inspire you."

 -Tony Dorsett.

You need a reason to win. A lot of the time, it’s down to the fact of what will happen if you don’t do something. But if the situation is unlikely to change if you don’t do anything, it makes it harder to make the change. You need a desire to improve things. You have to hold onto the drive to make the change otherwise it won’t happen. There might not be an instant reward available for completing the task but you’ve got to focus on the benefits when it’s done. If there’s no point in doing the task, then why do it? There’s other ways to occupy your time. You might need to give yourself a personal reward when the task is complete. It might be someone that inspires you, or at least is someone who keeps telling you to get the task done. Or it might be the option to go somewhere afterwards.

Stackpole Stroll

Today we’ve ventured into a village called Stackpole on the Pembrokeshire coast. We got the idea from an article in a women’s magazine, and the plan is to walk along the clifftops on the coastal path to reach the lily ponds then take lunch at a nearby pub. We can then get the bus back to the car, or walk back the way we came and stop off for a dip in the sea. It’s a sunny day and the coast is stunning. Other than a local coasteering group, there’s very few people around. There’s plenty of rest spots with views, woods with shade, and hills with vantage points. There’s also lots of boardwalks and tracks. The swans were busy looking for food in the lily ponds. It’s when we’re halfway through the walk I realise that I’ve been here before in someone else’s car. We managed an eleven-mile round trip.

Office of the Beardy Weirdies

As a group, these people seem to be stuck in their ways. There are people who are pushing for change, but they’re not necessarily in the right places. The office people are nice to deal with, and they’re young and enthusiastic, but they’re not the people in charge. They focus on their career and how they can use the organisation to gain experience and build a portfolio. They’re only active in the workday, and if they’re off duty for a holiday or they’re sick then you’re not going to get your answer at all. We are essentially their boss because if we don’t like their decision or process then we can attempt to overturn it. We also have the option to vote with our feet and leave the organisation. It’s the volunteers who are, and because these people don’t work full time due to other interests, they’re often hard to get a timely response out of.

A Wander around Raglan #raglan

On our way down to Pembrokeshire, we called off the dual carriageway to stretch our legs at Raglan Castle. It’s one of those ruins that’s still great to go and explore. The car park is centred around a green with hedgerows over the turret walls. The moat is very impressive, and how the castle contains its moat with bridges, but it’s a shame that you can’t access the towers, though not much of them remain. But they have tried to decorate what has remained with stone props. I love the turret tops; there’s no practical reason for them to be built apart from being architecturally pleasing, though I suppose they could be supports for the ramparts. There’s also lots to explore in the chapel. Where the floors have been removed, you can see the original fireplaces that are still set in the walls. There’s also some interest methods of cooking in the kitchen and some great dispense methods in the underground pantry.

The Office (AU)

There’s new plotlines but the characters are the same. You can tell who the prankster is and who is the weirdo; though they can be a little less conservative as they’re not in America. It’s easy to identify the characters from the US version. But there’s less jokes and more revenge as the people working here are a bit older, burnt out and serious. There’s lies and deception as people attempt to avoid change that’s forced upon them. It’s short and somewhat unrealistic with too many ditzy characters who you wonder how they got appointed in the first place; and it’s a shame that they didn’t have the chance to address COVID, though they did cover a period of remote working. There’s no international stars and the memes haven’t been appearing on social media either, but they might be big in Australia. It’s a shame that people didn’t give it a chance for another series to be developed, but you can tell that the original formula is still there.

A Bridge Too Far #bidford 14

This is set in an idyllic spot by the river. The bridge is built at a stretch, and it’s only to accommodate the road. There’s a fair bit of land next to the pub which creates an ideal beer garden as well as a small car park. The pub inside is comfortable and has tables in the entrance and bar side seating. There’s wooden beams with comfortable alcoves and seating. There’s also the option to dine al fresco which keeps a lot of the servers on their toes, but they’re still friendly and are happy to stop for a quick chat. The food is interesting and the small menu varies according to the season to keep it fresh. The beer is what you’d expect for the area, but it’s in good condition. They’re probably not shifting enough pints to accommodate a guest ale. Hopefully there’s a summer event that they can organise to create some interest.

Is the British Army tougher than the American Army?

We’re well ‘ard. We’re trained to survive in all sorts of situations where we’ve run out of ammo and the radio’s broken. We carry on. An American will panic as son as the last resource is in sight of running out. Our training covers everything from surviving in the wilderness to gathering your bearings and using what’s around you. We may not have rock-hard abs or be jacked up, but we’ve certainly got a good bit of kit that isn’t disposable which keeps us active. The toughest squad is renowned throughout the world for its secret operations. Instead of running away at the first sign of trouble, we’ll work as a team to put in the graft required to get the job done. And if we bleed, we’ll keep on crawling to do our duty and die to protect their colleagues. We’ve had presence in military conflicts all over the world miles away from our borders. And there’s so few of us compared to other armies.
