Those of you with long memories will recall the harrowing story I related back in July about clearing the browser cache on my phone and losing my winning streak on a stupid tetris game I play every day. I’d been trying to beat my personal best of 80 and bombed out at 79.
I had to start again at 1, and Wednesday 15 October was the day I would finally reach 80 if all went to plan.
Well, good news: today is Thursday 16 October, and I now have a new personal best.

I’m not going to pretend this is the biggest thing going on in my life at the moment, and it might not even be the biggest thing happening in yours. But it is a bit of good news and we could all do with that. Jolly good.

Good news comes in many forms. Have a hearty man-shake (that’s a man handshake, not a milkshake made of a human) from me.
Congratulations, and have a hearty man-shake (that’s a milkshake filled with screwdrivers and copies of Nuts magazine, not a man handshake) from me.
Thanks lads. All these congratulatory manshakes have made me do a manshake (a sort of shiver due to overstimulation from handshakes and milkshakes).
Better that than a mansh ache (throbbing from a vulnerable part of the male anatomy). You don’t wanna be hit in the mansh.
