Another Fail

First fail of the day: the coffee machine. Fine yesterday, bust today.
Second fail: this game of clock-patience. You can see the result.
Third and fourth fails: similar result.
Fifth fail: bog standard patience. Reducing the pure luck element slightly but still same result.
But next game: first success of the day. Didn’t push it, the cards were put away.
New coffee machine duly purchased. It’ll be a winner!
