Forgot to mention the other day that I am getting a free microwave!
My brother and sister in law are having their kitchen redone, and are getting a new microwave to match, so they asked me if I wanted their old one. To which I obviously said yes, because who doesn't like free stuff? ;)
I've actually wanted/needed a new microwave - the one I had was ailing when mum was still alive (tbf it must be nearly 30 years old at this point, and we didn't get it new). So I've not had one for the last two years. But a new one will make reheating things easier, mean I can buy stuff to nuke when I can't be arsed to cook after work, and I can finally make mug cakes! (A whole cake is nice, but sometimes you just want something small, yanno?)
Talking of cake, I made parkin last week and, even though I put in three times the amount of ginger recommended (3 tsp vs 1), I still think it could have been more gingery.

I am now watching Aoife and Johnny play Dark Souls. I really don't know why this time. I mean, even if I did give it a go myself, I think the Capra Demon would be where I'd give up for good (that looks like the worst combination of frustrating things in a boss fight). You know, if I hadn't got sick of falling off things all the time because that's totally a thing that happens.
But talking of Eurogamer, Aoife and Johnny did a Late to the Party on Abe's Oddysee which, omfg, this game I love it. (I often feel like me and my bff were the only ones who played it, but obviously I know that's not true. Also watching this made me extremely aware of how bad I would be at playing it, because platformer).
They also did the Resident Evil remake from 2002, in which I learnt Jill has jiggle physics, and was summarily disgusted. (I mean to link this one the other day and forgot, because I am a numptie).
