Spent the morning filming at the Step Pyramid in Egypt, clambering through underground tunnels, which was incredibly fun, but also, MADE AN INCREDIBLE DISCOVERY: (1/n)
By King Djoser’s burial chamber, in an alcove, we discovered an ancient and mysterious artefact, presumably left there four thousand years ago, as a warning to intruders. (2/n)
Upon closer inspection, it is a warning of a terrible monster that protects the grave.
Beware! Beware! It has 4000 attack and 4000 defence! Beware the true meaning of eternal slumber!
I have returned the rune to its resting place, on a ledge, and pray I have not angered Obelisk the Tormentor.

This is deeply stupid. The judgement is that an imaginary person, at some time in the future, might see “You live on in our Hearts”, written in Irish, not understand it, but JUST PRESUME it must be political, since it’s Irish and then…what?… feel uncomfortable? Unsettled?
So the family don’t get to give the tribute they want to their beloved mother because we apparently have to protect the feelings of some imaginary idiot in the future who can’t imagine the Irish language can carry any human emotions other that “Tiocfaidh ár Lá”.
Even outside the plain anti-Irish ignorance of that; it’s also ruling by the logic of “Well, crime, is down, but THE FEAR OF CRIME Is up!” which ignores reality for the imagined fears of the small-minded. Deeply stupid.
Some of you might remember me complaining about Microsoft Word losing a document a couple of days ago. It turns out I’ve discovered a Bug! A proper, dumb, catastrophic bug.
I want naming rights.
If you have Word on a Mac you can test it yourself: (1/n)
Open a file in Microsoft word on a Mac. Give it a name but, importantly, mistype the name so that the first two letters are capitalised; like TEst, say.
Then correct that mistake by replacing the second capitalised letter. You know, like you would.
And poof, the file disappears!
I haven’t tried it since actually doing it by accident (the scars are too raw, man) but the guy I had digging through my hard drive all of yesterday was very excited and says it is very replicable.
And word had been passed back to Microsoft HQ.
As I said, I want it named after me
Christ, it was literally the last words he said in the ITV debate. Slid out in his closing remarks when no-one could correct him. What a lying piece of shit that man is.
Sorry if that seems strong, but he was just a disgrace in that debate. “Operation Fear, operation Fear” he kept saying, and then at the end “Turkey” just to scare some people already petrified by the refugee coverage. Dreadful man.
At some point we’ll look back an wonder how Britain voted to leave the most powerful trading block in the world, and lost all their nurses, just because people had been made scared of Syrian refugees.
