    While Seagoon’s cats look relaxed but alert my dog looks bored and pervy.

    Bill and Ted say High. 😸😸

    spoiler

    Ted is the one who looks crazy, Bill is the one with hate in his eyes.

    Ok this is the last thing I’m gonna say on this matter. I’ve saved my dets on Chrome. I’ve written it in my book. I’ll get the man to save it on every possible thing he can think of.

    The reason I persevered is because I actually like you guys and it’s a pretty positive atmosphere here and I’m a positive person.

    I fucking hate technology. I have a headache.

        I tried everything. New account several times. I set up a new email. Then I’m sitting having my coffee and I thought I know my password is somewhat correct what about if I try 2 of my passwords together and it worked. Jfc. I’ve been trying since 6pm last night.

      I use a password manager called Bitwarden.

      It can be used with phones and tablets and also has extensions for browsers.

      Might be handy to also use it as well in combo with everything you’re already doing.

        So do I but for some reason I didn’t record it and because I started using Chrome afterwards it wasn’t there either. I’ve learnt my lesson.

          Bitwarden is free. It’s great. Accessible via an app or browser - just need to remember your master password and you’re good to go.

            Ive started using Nordpass this year and it saved my butt here haha. Saw that i was logged out, quickly checked Nordpass and saw it was there and was back in straight away. Takes a bit of time to get all of your old passwords changed and saved in there but once its done it is so good having a password manager!!

    Panettone as economic indicator.

    Every year I go to Brunswick to buy xmas panettones and other treats. They are usually sold out by the 1st week of Dec . This year prices are up again and the shelves were still full. Talking to another customer she was telling me they just can’t afford it, entertaining family and friends they buy quite a few and that would quickly add up to close to $200 each event.

    Found out today that three of my colleagues have Covid and I have mild symptoms that I thought were hayfever, and decided to test and I too have the spicy cough. I’m a bit gutted as it’s my mums birthday on Wednesday and we were meant to see my cousin before she flys off to live in Ireland on Saturday. Quite upset tbh but feeling okay overall.
