    Being at work today was like being back at school, girls have regressed to being like they were then.
    "What was he like? what did he do? we'd you go" blow by blow if you forgive the pun.

    I said it was good and me and my habit of having uncoordinated feet didn't result in me falling over.

    Meanwhile
    My friends are good, they know about my usual Valentines are like = bleak
    and have been trying to "cheer me up" with pictures as they weren't aware of last night.

    From the bleak North I journeyed to Cliftonville (near Margate) to holiday with my parents when in my early teens! Many years later I moved to Rochester with my wife when first I went on promotion to work in London, but the third-rail electric service of the day was so unreliable that we moved to Chelmsford after about twelve months. Here endeth the lesson about my connection with Kent! :rolleyes:

    We're currently near Hever Castle in a holiday cottage, visited Broadstairs (foggy/shower) by the time we got to Ramsgate (few miles away) sunny like Spring, micro climates.

    No travelogue about hops and oasthouses? No explanation of the difference between "Kentish Men" and "Men of Kent"? Just the weather? ;) :rolleyes:

    I'd forgotten how quickly once you're out of London, its picture postcard villages, my Dad used to go on holiday when he was little
    to the Isle of Sheppey (in the Thames estuary) we stayed Hever Castle been there a few times before, but haven't stayed there in the area.
    Its only about 90 minutes out from South London, saw a oasthouse x 2 one converted, one original purpose.
    Don't know about Kentish Men/Men of Kent, but slept with a Kentish girl over the weekend with frozen feet.

    Meanwhile
    For some reason one of my friends thought my Valentine's Day/Weekend was a disaster
    (probably went on my track record) and sent me these to cheer me up.

    That sounds like its the worst thing on Netflix right now...
    Then again I just finished up watching all 5 season of 'The 100' so what do I know...

    You should tell your friends Valentines was even worse than they think... keep the gifts flowing.

    Really good, not as good as Legion. But the use of music throughout is brilliant.

    FYI, the next seasons of Jessica Jones and The Punisher will be the last, as Netflix has cancelled them and completed their Marvel purge, though I bet anything its because of Marvel's omnipotent owners and they'll be rebooted on Disney's upcoming streaming service and Disneyfied in the process(barf).

    I can't say i'm surprised as they may be coming to their natural conclusion?

    But in saying that if their last Netflix outing does well, they'll be reappearing on the new Disney+ platorm?

    I like your thinking! will give it a try.

    Meanwhile
    On the Marvel/Netflix divorce, i wonder with the cancellations how much was it series reaching
    their natural conclusion vs finish our contractual obligations ahead of moving to Disney+?

    Sometimes drama series reach their natural conclusions, some go on pass their sell by dates.
    I loved "Orange" OITNB, it was the first Netflix series i watched, but i stopped watching it
    half way through the last season, why? I just got the feeling they were treading water and
    going over old ground in a new set up.

    I asked in the Official chat but nobody answered.
    Does anybody use the Opera browser?
    If you do what do you think about it?

    Apparently - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_web_browsers - Opera has a pretty small (3.13%) market share of browsers worldwide, but devotees probably love it, just as I love Firefox (5.1%)!

    Thanks reason i ask is friend showed me on Sunday and i was surprised how quick it was.
    I've used Firefox for a long time and liked it, but they use Chrome at work so got used to it.
    Plus the Google designers got it right as it interacts with everything and you get used to that.

    But Opera impressed me.

    I assume it's free? If so, give it a whirl?

    PS It's interesting that it appears to predominate on the African continent for some reason?
