So, I was taking a stroll in Orwellian knightmare-town Middlesbrough the other day. I was enjoying a tray of chips as I was walking down one of the main pedestrainised streets just off Linthorpe road, which is one of the areas included in the pilot scheme for those cameras with speakers that tell you off when you’re being naughty. A chip fell from my tray and I swear I heard a crackly “pick that up please” come from behind me. I was too intimidated to look behind so I just strode off, holding my chips securely in place.
Now, I realise he may have been addressing someone else, but I remain convinced that Middlesbrough is in fact being scrutinised form afar by pillocks who can’t cope with a chip being on the floor and I am soon to be arrested to bits.
So, yeah, not much exciting has happened recently.

A chip is a chip is a chip. You littered.

Around here stray chips do not have a chance to hit the floor. They barely have time to leave the tray before one of our humungous mutant seagulls performs a fly-by swiping.
I shall send a consignment of North Walian seagulls up to Middlesbrough immediately. You clearly need them more than we do.
Incidentally, there is one of those nosy, shouty spy-camera jobbies in the school field at the end of my parents’ garden. It is right up against the fence (although it was supposed to be installed several metres further away, but someone obviously thought it would be far more fun where it now is), meaning that it has a fabulous view into their garden and through their kitchen window. Nice!

‘ello ‘ello ‘ello, whats this then? A signed confession eh?
You have 5 days to find the missing chip and return it to your tray before we’ll be ‘aving you sunshine.
Oh, and Cappsy smells and needs to do something prettier with this place

Also, I really need to clean up the comments layout, if only to get rid of those place holder avatar images.

Is that why you talk to be on steam? To unlock the awesome Scott Achievements.
And here was me thinking you wanted to be my friend :*(

Our own physical body possesses a wisdom which we who inhabit the body lack.

If your success is not on your own terms, if it looks good to the world but does not feel good in your heart, it is not success at all.
