Yep: I’m officially off to Brentwood High Street, today.
I’ve got … a dental hygienist appointment!
My dentists makes appointment’s with the students ones for free, as I’m on universal credit!
All good.
I just hope it doesn’t take long … !

Let’s move on, shall we?
Yesterday’s Teaser saw Badwolf*, Olga†, Trevor‡ and Debbi^ putting in their answers: with Debbi, Trevor and Olga on three scoring five out of five, and Badwolf on four.
Let’s see how everyone does with today’s questions, shall we?
* Good MORNING, Ms Vampire … ! :D Just as a thought, @Badwolf? You MIGHT want to raid @Greebobek’s Terry Pratchett collection: it might just be up your street. (Greebo is a witch’s familiar … )
† 11°C is cold, Olga? That’s comparatively tropical, compared to Brentwood, right now! As for the extension? I think that would worry more people … if that can do a very across a lot of different browsers: the same way AdBlockPlus is all over the place. (Apparently? Google have released their draft plans for newer versions of Chrome … that won’t let you block adverts. If they do it? It’ll annoy people … and make them a fortune in ad revenue.)
‡ It’s got warmer, today, Trevor! Ahem!
^ Not quite what I’m saying, Debbi. If you buy the DVD version, you can rip themª to a computer, then sell the disks to your local equivalent of CeX: the second hand shops buy their stock from you and me. That way, you offset the cost of the series. (You buy the box set for, say, $25. Then rip them. Then sell them to CeX for $10. That way, the boxset’s effectively cost you $15.)
ª If I’ve understood the UK regulations, correctly? You can use things like Handbrake, MakeMKV and RipIt to turn DVDs into digital files: as backup, and for personal use, only. I’m not sure about US, or Spanish, regulations.

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
Thank you.
* I know many value their online privacy. I respect that. But hope you respect my wish to see who’s commenting on my blog: and my wish for you to introduce your self to me, and to your fellow commentors.
