“I call up my friend, the good angel
But she's out with her answerphone
She says that she'd love to come help but The sea would electrocute us all”

Been putting it off but finally filled Self Assessment and Corporation Tax today. Feeling relieved. Todos ticked! #GTD

Our careers… We used to make ‘things’ and now we make ‘us’. We feel guilty if we rest. We feel we must achieve? We are built to rest sometimes. #GTD
Gods rest is a gift, not a wage.

My genius quote today “In hindsight I could foresee this happening” My brain is a little bedraggled today.

Amazing day reconnecting with old friends for a student reunion, after TWENTY years! It felt like no time had passed as we instantly carried on where we left off, chatting, laughing, banter and memories! Great people! #reunion

Interesting quote in news today…

I should feel pride when I see St George’s and the Union flags, but at the moment I feel embarrassment and shame. Stop ruining our flags and claiming your racism is patriotism you idiots!

Had to visit A&E after slicing off two fingers on my right hand. I asked the doctor, “Will I still be able to write with it?” He replied, “Possibly… but I wouldn’t count on it!” #joke

In 1843 Lovelace suggested that 'mathematical truth' was the instrument through which the weak mind of man can most effectually read his Creator's works'. #ThoughtForThDay
