[11:35] <popey> Ahem. https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/loco-logo-dojo/41290
[11:35] <popey> (also good morning)
[12:44] <davef> festive
[12:45]  * penguin42 jingles
[13:18] <davef> Just rediscovered pickled onion monster munch. Nothing is safe.
[13:22] <penguin42> oh dear, still, it might distract you from the Jaffa cakes; I don't *think* they go together
[13:24] <davef> I dunno, sweet orange with crunchy pickled onion might be an oddly satisfying combination.
[13:25] <penguin42> and next year you start your new job with Walkers
[13:27] <davef> Got a video game to make first
[13:31] <penguin42> oh? What's that?

[13:32] <penguin42> how many tools does the $ break?
[13:33] <davef> the $ is not used
[13:34] <penguin42> fortunate
[13:36] <davef> Yes, that's my day job, when I'm not devouring Jaffa cakes 
[13:37] <penguin42> line of code, jaffa cake, line of code, jaffa cake,  test passes, monster munch....
[13:38] <davef> I'm more on the managerial side, tell somebody to do that, Jaffa cake, somebody do this, Jaffa cake, say "good work everyone", monster munch
[13:41] <penguin42> ok, so you have an epic for jaffa cake supply, and delivery is critically dependent on it
[13:50] <davef> Indeed, and must consume at least 6 packs of Jaffas every sprint 
[14:28] <zxmpi> you prepare for these moments https://i.pinimg.com/originals/58/64/dd/5864dd3c58ec6b40cedd55c3d3032c5d.jpg
[14:30] <lopta> Mornin'
[14:31] <zxmpi> afternoon
[14:32] <penguin42> zxmpi: you definitely need a drink to go with one of those large packs, they completely suck any moisture out
[14:36] <zxmpi> even if it's less than a yard it's a lot of cake
[14:44] <lopta> Generally speaking, I am in favour of cake.
[14:45] <zxmpi> people who are anti cake are to be watched
[14:47] <penguin42> and beaten with a good heavy malt loaf until they comply
[14:47] <zxmpi> nah, christmas fruit cake. then it'll have a use :-P
[14:48] <zxmpi> other than doorstop
[14:50] <lopta> A place I worked used to have a Christmas tradition of "gifting" a fruitcake to a local bank.  The following year the same bank would give it back.  The same cake.  We'd been around for eighty-plus years, so I hate to think how old that cake was.
[14:51] <lopta> I think the bank may have been stuck with that after we folded.
[14:52] <zxmpi> lots of old ones still about https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/caring-for-137-year-old-fruitcake-becomes-a-stale-family-tradition/article27890666/

[18:13] <lopta> I would watch that if I weren't at work.
[18:41] <lopta> popey: Is LoCo membership something that lapses if a member doesn't intentionally renew it?
