@Matt ‘hide stuff for your wife’ boxes.. @Kasi

[EdH]

@Matt No idea. They don't generally do the deals outside my house. I had a peek in the back of the car once and saw empty canisters of nitrous oxide (laughing gas) on the floor of the car. I've seen them meet up with someone on foot then all hop a nearby fence and disappear behind some trees with a toolbox, and could overhear them opening and shutting it a few times on one occasion.

[Matt]

Maybe they’re dentists.

[Kasi]

Matt wanna your teeth’s sorting out

[Kasi]

@Matt be honest how many stuff are you hiding from Katie

So don’t become a Pinocchio lying with a big nose

[Matt]

All of it.

Just got harassed on the walk home by some drunken woman demanding I rolled down my 'Tesco Turn-Ups' (cuffed denim, for those not familiar with the nuances of British insults).

I said 'nah, this is how I like them' and she got gradually more aggressive towards the fact I wasn't rising to her comments, and proceeded to power walk/limp behind me in broken high heels yelling 'WHY ARE YOU WEARING ALL DENIM!?'

I eventually outpaced my pursuer, and made it home in one piece.

Stay safe out there folks haha

Went to Iron Heart Osaka. It was pretty cool

I’ve also gotta add that I’m a huge fan of samurai jeans, especially their T-shirt’s but going to their head store was totally underwhelming. The staff that was there were total snobs and acted like they were annoyed at everyone for being there. Iron Heart Osaka however were so welcoming and kind

Today's my turn for travel misery.

I'm booked onto a 5:15 am flight from Melbourne to Manchester via Dubai, but I'm currently living three hours from the airport.

On the train down, I check my flight details and find my seat has been deallocated. The only seats left are a couple on the exit row, with a $210 upcharge.

I call the airline's helpline, and the girl tells me that I can either pay the upcharge, or get to the airport early and speak with staff there. But when I arrive at the airport, I find that there isn't a help desk and I have to wait for check-in to open at around 2 am.

@Graeme Best of luck and I feel your pain. I think travel has changed quite a bit from the golden age. Hard to think that flying used to be an event, and the people flying were treated better than a herd of cattle.

[Graeme]

@goosehd thanks! I cleared check-in about half an hour ago. Luckily they had a seat for me.

Now I've just got to keep awake for a few hours until I board.

[goosehd]

@Graeme Safe travels and enjoy your trip.

[Graeme]

Thanks @goosehd. I landed a couple of hours ago, and am now on the train North to see my father.

[Matt]

I hate summer.

[goosehd]

@Matt Isn’t New Mexico 10 months of summer per year?

[Matt]

Its really nice here most of the time. 70s/50s and dry. June, July and August are hot but still dry. High desert. I’d like to move to Santa Fe or Taos. 10-15 degrees colder there with real winters.

@Matt Currently in the process of planning a potential trip to your neck of the woods in October,after the Balloon Festival. Might want to ask for recommendations on places to stay,eat,and things to do etc.

[Matt]
