I love this photo from Portland, however I am drawn to the sign “Frogs Together Strong” and note that its inspiration comes from The Planet of the Apes documentaries.
Those don’t really work out well for humans…
I, for one, welcome our new amphibian overlords.

If not Day1 UK police training, it’s pretty early on:
My attitude > affects > My behaviour > affects > Your attitude > affects > Your behaviour and so on…
Every been in an argument which ends up with you both just shouting at each other (and you sleeping on the sofa…)?
Exactly!
But with guns!

It’s important to have a distraction technique to help avoid all the depressing UK politics stuff.
So on this weeks schedule, we have the Dirty Harry Collection, Bullitt and All the Presidents Men.

Generation Terrorists, because that’s where I started with them.
Specifically a 7” of You Love Us in 1992 bought from whatever the record shop in Taunton was called, just along from Waterstones.
Anyway, it’s the only band still making 5* music from back then that I was on board with from Day1!

I see the conspiracy theorists, elite snipers, hunters and assassins and everyone who has ever seen all the Jason Bourne films and the Fugitive is coming onto social media to offer their opinion.
It would make a slightly complicated but not unsurprising venn diagram.

I want to like Starmer. I do.
But for an intelligent man, a former DPP, he should know how to frame an argument.
He’s the PM of the UK.
The leader of the nation.
If he’s sat in front of a flag (weird…) you’d hope it would represent everyone and not just the bit he lives in.

My village has converted the red telephone box to a ‘free book library’.
Stopping by there, I picked up Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.
I’ve not read it in ages and seems, somehow, appropriate once again.

Insurance companies are notorious for finding any excuse not to pay out.

There’s lots of reports (locally, but I assume nationally) of ‘local patriots’ painting St George’s flags on roundabouts.
They’re not flags. It looks rubbish. It’s some mindless vandal thinking they’re making a valid political statement whilst dragging the local area down.

Day2:
1xPicc line removed (sprung a leak), new one inserted yesterday
1xCanula removed (to ensure no delay to drug delivery)
1xDoppler scan on old Picc line prior to removal (just to check for any issues)
1xHead scan as I’m a bit shaky

Day -1: last day of chemo pre-conditioning.
At the end of the day I should have no functioning immune system or, most importantly cancer.
That means tomorrow is Day 0
Stem Cell Transplant day!!!!!
I’m told it’s anticlimactic, which I hope it is BUT it is a massive step forward.

My pump makes a noise like an old dial up modem.
I look at it and see I’m on Drug X.
Elon really is downloading me!!!
They tried to warn us about the covid vaccine.
I didn’t listen.
Anyway, I’m probably the reason why AI is a bit rubbish currently.

Exercise is important, especially when you are confined to a room.
Part of my pre-transplant info loading was a visit from the physiotherapist who gave me some exercises to do (standing, sat or bed bound depending on my condition) and also some pedals.
I’m not quite Tour De France standard…
