Christmas leftovers they are giving us AKA stuff he couldn't manage to fit in before Xmas arrived. Methinks this leftover is going to sit in my stomach like a lump of lead.
Sad sack Mark sitting at the kitchen table, large bottle of Highland water,
is there something wrong with London tap water? laptop open doing EDITING I bet. God he looks like shit, massive bags under the eyes that a 1000 cucumber slices couldn't fix. Someone should have got a gift certificate for a blepharoplasty for Xmas.

Nadia is coming to him to do a chore. Nadia has a roll of draft excluder for Mark to install. Mark says his mum used him as a draft excluder.
![Neutral face :neutral_face: 😐](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/joypixels/emoji-assets@5.0/png/64/1f610.png)
Mark says it is too thin and Nadia said it is to be put at the top of the door. Oh my Lord, you can see little coming in through the top curve of the door! You could easily slide bristol board through it. Their heating bills must be high. Mark bitches about it not going around the curve. Nadia gets a chair and a cloth as she wants to clean the before sticking the adhesive on it. Mark bitches that she is letting the heat out of the house.
Usually you do these kind of things when it isn't winter. Nadia is actually installing this whilst Mark films and critiques her. She calls him Mr. Dickhead.
![Rolling on the floor laughing :rofl: 🤣](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/joypixels/emoji-assets@5.0/png/64/1f923.png)
The draft excluder goes round the curve and Mark is convinces it won't.
I think the words neither use nor ornament come to mind. "Thank fuck for that, I didn't want to do that job at all" says the lazy arse. Nadia says he will be doing the next lot, to which he refuses. Nadia calls the X-Acto knife a scalpel.
![Roll eyes :rolleyes: :rolleyes:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
More fratching. He says it is absolute rubbish and where did she get it from. She shuts the door and Mark does that high pitched whine that the door isn't shutting. More yelling.
Do people really get enjoyment watching these 2 morons scream at each other. I found the curtain rod incident rage inducing. Mark almost shuts Nadia's fingers in the door.
![Face with steam from nose :triumph: 😤](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/joypixels/emoji-assets@5.0/png/64/1f624.png)
He finds that hilarious. He suggests he do it and through the magic of his EDITING, he has Nadia repeat 4x I asked you to do it. She puts the strip on top of the door now and it prevents the door from shutting even more. He has a go now standing on the chair. Toffee barks her head off in the background. I'm bored of this crap.
More of this shit, putting the strip on the door. For interest's sake I Googled installing weather stripping and a video pops up. It says to thoroughly clean the door frame, not wipe it with a small piece of paper towel. Honestly, the amount of money these two must waste could probably feed the less fortunate in Croydon. Nadia gives Toffee hell for barking. Let me translate. Toffee: "Shut that bloody door, it's freezing! You two numpties can't be bothered to do a job properly. The subs will find this neither informative nor entertaing. While you;re at it, CHUCK MARK IN THE BIN YOU DUMB BITCH!"

Did I tell you Mark has a piece of the stripping on his forehead? Nadia is telling him to put strip where the gaps are. God he has a punchable face. Off to get scissors and Nadia mentions that Nanny Di was there the other day and said "it was such a problem." I am guessing Di keeps nicking the scissors. She hands him the scissors with the sharp end towards him.

More discourse on where the draft is coming from, either the top or bottom of the door. Mark searches for metal draft excluder and I can envision a problem; you need a drill and screws to install those things. "Oh Mark, I think that is money we will never see again."
You think? You might have to go work on a pole now. You will need an angle, so how about a mum and daughter duo?
Nadia asks if Mark has a screwdriver and he says no.
Don't they have a toolbox of some description? I know he has a belt, but maybe that is just for show or in the bedroom. ![Sick :sick: :sick:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
"Screws are included."
Yeah, but what are the screw heads? Phillips? Roberson? Hex? Flathead?
Just when you thought the door situation was over, Nadia want the patio door seeing to. Do people really find incompetence intriguing? I am going to be sexist now, but I couldn't see myself marrying a guy who can't fix anything minor or put up a shelf. Mark insists on putting the strip on the inside of the house. What a maroon! Nadia says something about him being the joke of South London.
That ship has sailed. He says you can't stick it to plastic. Nadia finally found one of her brain cells and suggest looking up a YouTube video. Twenty-one minutes and the strip BS and we have next day and a view of that stupid hat of Mark's. I know you are asking yourselves "Which one?" The red and white one that bends with the white pom-pom. It's all about the fridges delivery and pick-up. Oh boy. Also the dogs, Toffee has nicked all the bones. Nadia has a podcast rec. Nadia is trying to talk, but Mark's stupid hat is in her face. It's on Dr. Kermit Baron Gosnell, the most prolific killer in the States. This guy operated an unapproved abortion clinic in Philadelphia and was free and easy with the OxyContin prescriptions. He was only found out during a drug investigation that he killed infants and a woman during an abortion procedure.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kermit_Gosnell if you want to read more about this charming individual.
![Mad :mad: :mad:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
"Meet Dr. Kermit Gosnell" is the podcast. Mark can't get over the guy's name is Kermit.
Nadia doesn't feel very well and she just burned her fingers in the hot water. Mark says she has had a festive bypass, as none of the lights are on.
I'm surprised she hasn't tried to suffocate him in his sleep. I know I would if I had to share a house with him. Nadia makes herself a pot of ginger and Mark is meeting Nanny Di this evening to see a film. He doesn't know if there is anything to film in Mayfair, unlike Covent Garden and Soho.
I'm pretty sure there are Xmas lights on in Mayfair DUM DUM. Harasses Toffee. In Mayfair and Mark tells us a story of first being in Curzon Street in Mayfair, being approached by some women when he was a student.
Mark in fantasy mode. They must have been under the influence or something. When he told his mum, she said they were high class sex workers.
Of course! It all makes sense that story now.
He walks around and finds the lights and goes on about how posh with a long O it is around there. "It's very Christmassy, it's like being in Europe."

"More leftovers to come" it says and just when I thought I wouldn't see the dumbass elf and dancing faerie there they are at the end.
