Mmm, I would expect that a serial killer needs to be fairly logical to progress far along their chosen path...

.. let me know how you get on, if you decide to have a go at it...
I'm normally this too but today I'm a virtuoso (very slightly more observant than intuitive, all other metrics the same and fairly dominant as usual. My N/S is usually close).

It does not surprise me at all that an internet forum is full of introverts. My Insights profile talks about making better virtual friendships than real life ones!

After trying unsuccessfully to get through to Lloyds for a fortnight , todays attempt on my mobile resulted in actually getting to be in a queue instead of cut off . But being told the queue was a minimum of 1 hour I hadn't enough minutes left. ....
Rang from hubbys works phone when he finished for the day......got straight through to an advisor. :o Replacement card that's gone AWOL now cancelled and another replacement on it's way. YAY! :dance:



Not had a walk the last few days, but getting so frustrated at neighbours (in supposed isolation because their daughter is ill) having visitors coming and going everyday , teenagers running up and down the shared driveway to see their mate, that decided to have a short walk to let off steam.

BUT...think I've just had my final walk for quite a long time ! (Always used to enjoy walking miles everyday before the Coronavirus crisis , but these 'allowed local short walks' lately are just raising my blood pressure and not enjoying them at all. )

A short walk around the estate tonight was most unenjoyable constantly crossing over , diverting off up unoccupied roads, and doubling back when no way of getting past within a safe distance. Trying to avoid couples, groups, cyclists, kids running anywhere with no respect for the social distancing rules. Amazing how many mothers are meeting up with each other with their hoards of kids.
A cyclist suddenly approaching from behind us narrowly avoided colliding with hubby on the pavement as he screeched to a halt and went into a skid. Cars on the playing fields carpark, with grandparents on the out of bounds kiddies playground equipment pushing their grandchildren on the swings. Can't they read the notices or do they just not give a damn?:mad:

Rant over....time for my pork chop tea :)

Today was a day of small jobs, the frequent short showers saw to that.

One of them was to turn over this cold frame - it's been used to compost leaves for the last couple of years - huge quantities, but they have rotted down to almost no additional volume, although the soil seems better for it. I might run the tiller through it in a day or two. I'm contemplating emptying the heap beyond it into there, as well, and maybe forming a raised bed. Then I can add new stuff to the heap again - we'll see.

I planned on having chilli con carne for tea, but it turns out that I may have had that strategic reserve tin for longer than I thought and I discovered that it needed a tin opener, so I defaulted to chicken curry.

Consul. Looking at the description it is about right. I had a career that meant I had to strike up conversations with strangers so being social doesnt faze me at all. The other traits are about right. I am not the loud dickhead but not introverted at all. My wife says I have masses of misplaced confidence.

One of the fan forum members posted on Twitter that they were calling the over 70s. I wonder if they called me rather than my Dad as I'm linked to his account.

It can be lonely at the top. Being one of the rarest personality types and being among the most capable people, Architects know this all too well. They make up just two percent of the population

Examples include Elon Musk, Vladimir Putin, Seven of Nine.

Ha ha ha ha ha.................

Think this might be a bit wrong, for me, although I do tend to say "I will adapt" (Seven of Nine) in response to changing circumstances.

There are hints that Comet Atlas is breaking up as it barrels in toward the Sun. It's in a 6000 year orbit so if it does, I wont be able to catch it next time in as I might be a bit too decrepit and smelly ... (before anybody says it: 'No change there then !') :P
