Diet Coke makes me laugh. The only people I ever see drinking "diet" versions of drinks are the danger to shipping types. You'd think they'd have the tiniest inkling of self-awareness. Nope. Must be all that saccharine and aspartame.

I always drink diet versions. I can't stand the fuzzy teeth feeling from full sugar versions
Decided it'd be a nice day to go chill in the hammock with a laptop and a book and some etiz. Parents and sister set up chairs on the patio to take bets on how long before I fell out of it.
It collapsed after five minutes.
Cunts.
edit: I might be slightly overweight but I am most certainly not over the 20 stone weight limit

I have no opiate tolerance. Didn't think codeine would make me this sleepy. Only took 120mg. Stood on the dogs paw in puppy class as he was darting in and out from under my feet during training.
It's almost too hot to do owt here. Watering the garden and filling up the water butts is about all I can muster atm.
How long does codeine tend to last/affect tiredness levels?

I find codeine doziness kicks in a couple hours after taking it and lasts a couple hours itself. I often try to make use of the doziness window to actually doze. If you are feeling codeinated from 120mg it would appear you are particularly sensitive though so could well have a fair few hours of doziness ahead, Mz Marmz. Find shade and do shady and/or dozy stuffs would be my advice. Snolls has the right idea: hammocks are your friend. Mine too. But have no hammock. Why don't hammocks come as standard?!? 
Is it hot out? Ain't hot in. Looks quite sunny out but doesn't feel warm in me flat. This is probably why I never notice summer come to think of it.
Fairy muff. I can't stand the taste of artificial sweeteners. I'm also not very fond of overly sweet things in general - which artificial sweeteners most definitely are even more so than the sugared versions... but sugaryfizzy drinks in general are horribly oversweet so very rarely drink any of 'em anyway.

is he gonna be jumping through hoops of fire and whatnot after these classes?

No, speaking business German.
The classes cover all the basics ... walking loosely on a lead, sit, down, leave, stand, not jumping up at folks, leaving food and waiting ... loads of other stuff .. and he gets to interact with other puppies, which is the main thing ... he needs socialising loads since he's not around any other dogs at mine or my mums.
He knew a lot of the commands already before he started but it's good to be able to do them in a busy noisy environment with distractions.
I actually have him kinda jumping through hoops via my own little agility course i made for him at my mums
I bought 3 or 4 of these from the poundshop, and cut out the ends and attached them together to make a long run .. and he loves it when he's bolting around the garden

Fucking beautiful here, unbroken sunshine all day so far, got me round finished about 1.15, chiillin with me Ribenas now, then we off down the allotment. Used the RM van today to take a load of sacks of manure down there in my break.....poor fucker using that van on Monday's gonna give me a right bollocking.
Have a Top buzz/afternoon
That burger loooks really nice, i've only eaten a bowl of muesli today, drunk loads of ribena....but starving, gonna have a bbq down the alllotment and get pissed up....But that photo of that burger, yeah, I'm fucking starving tbh.
I only drink full sugar drinks, and only give full sugar drinks to my son. Aspartamine and all those artificial sweeteners taste awful, i really notice the flavour of them....and I don't think it's very good for you either....

I agree, diet drinks aren't healthy but they taste goooood! Unless you're used to the originals. The calories freak me out too
are you sure it's not that aspartame has no taste, and without the 11 teaspoons of sugar in it you begin to notice that coca cola actually tastes fucking rank? ;P
i cant drink full sugar soft drinks atall, the thought of it makesm e shudder now. although when I was a kid i used to be all over that shit.

Well I probably had 120mg in the evening last night ... then another 60mg as I fell asleep ... then the 120mg this morning, so I take it there might be a build up too?
I should check out if it has any negative effects on the kidneys really, having only one, I need to remember to be careful with this stuff.
Also, like you Shammy, I've really reduced my alcohol intake, which is having a good effect on my body but it's a killer to not keep chugging delicious beer and cider during the day, straight from the fridge in this weather.
I don't get hangovers really, and I LOVE how alcohol makes me feel. I never ever get proper drunk, just like the relaxed body buzzy kinda feeling it gives me.
Codeine is a weird one for me, the euphoria and itchiness will go after a few hours but when it comes time to go to bed it seems to kick straight back in and I'm out like a light. Purely subjective though. I suspect.

Nah. Definitely the artificial sweeteners that taste rancid. All soft drinks don't taste the same, but all "diet" drinks taste of little else but artificial sweetener. Just overpowers the taste of everything else whatever they're in. Ick. Fukkin vile stuff. As I said, I find the standard versions too sweet as it is usually so the even sweeter artificial ones can get to fuck. Give not fuck one about the calories - "diet" stuff just tastes worse than stale tramp's piss. Worse than warm stale tramp's piss. I mostly just drink water actually. Such a pansy me sometimes
Incidentally, am the same with salt. Not put salt on food for many years so find most processed food (almost all processed food, in fact) tastes of little other than excessive amounts of salt and sugar and is borderline unpleasant. Not that that stops me from eating/drinking junk by any means. But does mean I bitch about it.
Build up is definitely a possibility, I'd think. Can't recall the half-life offhand but it always seems to last quite a while for me. I mostly take one reasonably large dose of a morning to get me through the day as painlessly as possible but if I took the doses you did spaced out as you did (assuming I had no massive tolerance built up) I'd basically be in the same position: a bit dozy. 300mg within what I'm guessing is ~12h give or take a couple is not all that different from taking it as one dose only you probably won't get a "hit" from it as such. Could see it feeling a bit more sedating actually cos I'd presume that means you've had a reasonably steady amount of codeine and/or morphine products floating about yer bod the whole time rather than getting it all up front. This is probably why people are supposed to take them spaced out over a day rather than as a single dose.
Am not aware of it having any specific kidney-woes but worth checking out if it could be a problem for you. Opiates are known for affecting one's widdling habits (as in it backs you up a bit) which may be less than ideal. Worth looking into if got less giblets than is usually recommended.
Also, nice work on the booze-reduction. Must be summat in the air recently cos seems to be a few EADD folk cutting back on the demon drink. Must be at least a fortnight since I last supped now. Not even thinking about it much these days. Which is a good thing cos despite a full complement of internal organs I'm pretty sure at least half of 'em don't work half as well as t'other half due to being pickled
Cold alky hols definitely does have quite considerable appeal when weather's nice but am actually not fancying it much. Not cos I've got some anti-booze thing going particularly. Just not in boozy mood of late. Wonder if I broke me?

Agreed, red bull etc is all dirty vomit... especially first thing in the morning which some people seem to swear by.

Sugary drinks are a leading cause of tooth decay. That's why I use sensodyne pronamel© toothpaste.
