The driving quality and state of the local mall suggest the school holidays have started (even though, officially, term ends on Tuesday). 6-weeks of relative ease getting to work is not worth the impact on all other aspects of life 😭

Just found out that #Wetherspoon is no longer selling Jim Beam, leaving only Jack Daniel’s on the bourbon menu which is a third more expensive. With the price increases and diminishing drink offer, I’ll be joining the “stay in” people before much longer

Go on holiday for 5-days, and in the 3-days I’ve been back I’ve developed the shittiest cold I’ve had in ages. Why does this always happen?

Turns out Hugh Dennis suffers easyJet like the rest of us. I’ve made all the puns in a series of messages with other people on the same flight.

First day I’ve thought the gym could do with having the air con on to cool the place down (old tin / plastic roof).

Small wrists/skin sensitivities, or just not really exercising? Every example I’ve seen of this is people walking on treadmills with stationary arms (holding onto the treadmill or, ironically, using their phone) & moaning the watch didn’t track the workout because they don’t understand how it works🙄

So I’ve started - Facebook app deleted, 2 Twitter accounts deactivated. I was already on the cusp but the last 24-hrs just confirm that I can’t, even passively, be part of those platforms any more. Will find as many of those I followed on Twitter on here then the final account will be deactivated.

So the ‘saving’ of TikTok in the States is the equivalent of a hostile takeover more to line the pockets of the USA than to save free speech? 🤔
