Just been dragged into that & Other Stories shop in town. Misses was looking for some make up and I noticed there was a sink with some soap. Needed to wash my hands anyway and used some soap with tobacco leaves or something. Anyway, hands smell amazing. I've been walking around all afternoon sniffing them.

 

Still smell boss but swerve paying £5.

I can't even promote it with the description of: "dry tobacco leaves withering among beloved jasmine and ripe lemon".

 

It does smell boss though and something you're going to try when you're next in town.

I won't try it like but I do love a scented candle that has a tobacco smell with it. 

 

On a side note I tried chewing tobacco (On the flight deck of the USS Winston Churchill as it happens) once and it was fucking putrid.

Moved a few classes and now I can go back to the UK the week after next and watch the final with my mates.

 

Made up.

I don't smoke, but a gentle woody, sweet tobacco scent is nice. Captain Fawcett's Booze and Baccy beard oil being my face pong of choice.

On my last trip to Vietnam a few months ago, a friend asked if I would talk to the children at her sisters little English private school.

I love Vietnam and the Vietnamese people who are just unbelievably friendly so I jumped at the chance to repay a little of the kindness I've received. I enjoyed it so so so much, I returned for a couple more weekends before I went back to Australia.

I returned to Vietnam a couple of weeks ago and went to the school for a class on the weekend.

As soon as they spotted me, I was mobbed by the kids welcoming me back, it was magic, a truly terrific feeling. Needless to say, I'll be going back.

The reaction to the vandalism of a model railway  group.  People have donated loads to help replace the damaged tracks.  Rod Stewart donated £10k and so far they’ve got £60k.

My neighbours on one side are lovely people, and the fella brings me curry when he's cooking one. Just finished one now.

Went for the weekly shop this afternoon and as usual handed in my loyalty card for points. Done this for a few years now and just never bothered ordering anything from the catalogue as it's usually cheap tat you can get on Amazon for a lot less money than they say it costs. I was actually saving the points for something bigger and had about 45.000 points which relates to 450€ or there about. I never realised you could pay for your shopping with the points for the same exchange system until the young girl on the checkout asked if I wanted to pay with points. Nice smug feeling walking out of the supermarket with 150 notes of shopping I didn't have to part with cash for. I can do the same again for the next two shops, jobs a good un.

Not sure why this popped up on Youtube as it's about five years old but I love this interview -

Thankfully the match came on , he’s ok really but has this tendency to sing songs like that out loud , there’s another equally shite one , can’t remember but similar and he knows all the words to a more upbeat one “nobody told me you were a girlfriend going on boyfriend going on something else bollocks” I know all the crazy lyrics to this if you’ll listen , hard graft.

It’s always good to hear a Blackbird doing its evening routine , nothing more peaceful, perhaps the plaintive cry of the Curlew.

Yes  that’s it , it’s not to bad I suppose but when he’s beaked up and sits in his chair at the end of the bar it’s quite painful.
