The quotes in this article from the logs are so much worse than you might expect.

My current audiobook is driving me mad. The narrator hasn’t read ahead and the sentences are long so she reads them all with the same last-clause-before-home upwards intonation.

Anyway, I'm off to watch The Traitors.

Really sad about Chris Rea. Driving Home for Christmas is one of my small seasonal pleasures as we point the car northwest for Holyhead.
