Just seen a guy inspecting a storm damaged roof with a drone. Which on one hand makes perfect sense, but also gives me a weird feeling like I am living in the future.

Left work on time and it was daylight. Saw the Albert bridge starlings doing their thing on my cycle home.

Kinda feels like the back of the winter is broken now? ❤️

A load of tiles have made the journey from my roof to my driveway 😩, but on the plus side, the electricity is still on which means COFFEE 🤩

Season Three of Industry has all the hallmarks of what made Season one great TV and none of the problems that made Season two a bit rubbish. Bravo.
