Fittingly, this James Baldwin quote always makes me feel the very thing it’s describing - connected in that very connection

They should have to wait until a worker of the ‘right sort’ is available.

I hope people don’t forget

He is such a terrible person.

That'll be years of consistent vaccination schedules paying lifesaving health dividends, I guess.

How lovely ❤️

Such fun times! 🥰

Yes, we did that too in Sydney (Australia). Friends and I travelled by train from our country town in makeup, capes, stockings, the works! 🤩

Loved the play too. In Sydney wonderful Reg Livermore was an amazing Franknfurter, with a wonderful cast.

So, you can use grok at parties to bully people? Wow, how have I lived without this until now?

Brilliant! Now fir the wedding party! Have fun 😁

I like a rest break at the 2-ish hour mark on a long trip, but I do love to see the scenery and it sounds like good company! I do hope you enjoy it all 💐

Interesting - same here (NSW, Australia). We measure speed in kilometres (not miles) per hour, but same behaviour. Maybe it's the thought of a big expanse of road I can actually drive fast on! Too tempting for many.

I'm not in the UK ... how long will you be on the road?

Anecdotal but ... when my late partner had a small business she received an enormous tax bill (more than her annual income). She phoned the ATO "Helpline" 3 times and got 3 completely different answers. She finally paid for an accountant, got another variation, but luckily it stuck.

I'm still waiting to find out one thing that has been improved by privatisation, not just superficially, but systemically too. The answer is always nothing.
