Wasn’t that the first thing I though… will they let me run it like black books? Can I fake an Irish accent and drink far more than I do? Wouldn’t I fail with the smoking, though? Doesn’t this sound like a fucking amazing holiday, though?
Half ten!? Half ten!? What happens!?
Can I confess I just sent this airbnb to two people and we may make a holiday out of it?
Will you let me know if they do and how they like it? Don’t I totally want to convince my family to do this sometime in the near future?
How to put this in question form…?
Without reciting my life history would you believe I am a member of a used musical instrument shop which was very much like black books and everyone that worked there is still friends? And we would all jump at the chance to run a bookshop in Scotland?
One bed and two people? How bout eight!?
Will you have wine bottle ice lollies? Wouldn’t I travel south to be a customer if you had them? (Or even if you didn’t?)
?
Okay, I now have… Thirteen people interested? (Yes, some of them are minors)
Won’t they get coal dust all over the books?
Wasn’t even my wife fascinated by that opportunity? Although I think she’d jump at the opportunity to work in a coal mine for a week if meant we’d be sans sprogs, right?
Do you know how happy I was when a Carson supporter replied to my image of Ben Carson reacting to Princess Pricklepants jumping into the presidential race?
Aren’t I surprised at how spiky Princess Pricklepants’ campaign is? Didn’t I expect her to just curl up when attacked?
Is anyone watching the Oscars (no cable here, so no…)? I’m seeing a lot of people calling Chris Rock Uncle Tom…?
I haven’t seen the oscars in over a decade… just kinda meh about the whole thing now.

damn it… how do I manage to do this kind of thing? can I blame the Trader Joe’s beer I had earlier?
Oh, I guess it’s the Oscars that all the people on Twitter were going on about, then? Is it strange that I’ve never seen the Oscars before?
Was the beer good? Perhaps you should praise the the Trader Joe’s beer you had earlier?
It was beer tasty though not awesome, but what can one expect from the store brand lager? (Actually pretty good for under $1/can)
Never?
Haven’t I watched it in the past, but isn’t it a bit pointless now since I never go to the cinema any more?
(and anyway, aren’t ABC stopping people from streaming it, so even if I wanted to, I couldn’t? Isn’t that a really odd decision for free-to-air television?)
No cable or regular teevee here either - do you think I’m missing anything good?
