Sat here watching crap on the internet and doing some coding on one of my far too many projects, police turned up for a house over the road. 1 car load and 2 van loads of coppers have so far gone in there.

Now out of hospital but another week of multiple oral antibiotics to go. Improving, but still feel pretty rotten.

Also, being on 12 IV bags of various medications per day is really wearing. No rest.

Today I have managed to eat roughly half an egg and an ounce or so of beef. I can't face eating right now, feel so sick all the time.

Another day of bright sunshine. This is unnatural for Lancashire and the reservoirs are massively down on normal levels for the time of year. Desperately need some rain.

It's interesting to note that governments across Europe are now indicating that tech contractors are no longer allowed to use US based software and services because of this. I hope the pushback against the constant bullying of the US continues.

At this point in time I think the only way to deal with America is for the rest of the world to keep raising retaliatory tariffs against the US until it's completely cut off from trade.
You want to be isolationist? Fine. Go fuck right off. Rest of can go do our own thing.

Just over a week ago I ended up with a partial dislocation of my right shoulder. That was sorted but I think there's some residual internal damage as it's still surprisingly painful in use. Guess I'll go see a medical professional of some sort of it's still bad after Xmas.

In conclusion of today's motorbiking, the Africa Twin is a wonderful machine, but I prefer the old git comfort of my NT1100 😀

Whilst I appreciate the free flu jab from the NHS every year, I do wish it didn't make my shoulder hurt so damn much.

Mine's all done now and safely back in the garage and locked up :)

Apparently it's international coffee day.
@branston.horse I assume you'll be having a small cup of Nescafé original in celebration of that.

The BBC and other news media referring to a whole slew of different bladed weapons as"zombie knives" is fucking hilarious.
There is no such thing as a "zombie" knife. Most of what they show are things like tantos, daggers, combat knives and machetes.
Hurrah for sensationalist wank.

I hear that there will be no @branston.horse at CF this year. That's going to be weird. Hoss is basically a universal constant at CF.
