And people wonder why the high street is dying. Arrived at Boots due to clothes at 1730 at 1723 and had to negotiate with the security guard to get in. He said we don't let people in after 1725. I pointed out the obvious and am now equipped for training camp tomorrow

Ever wondered why walking around museums is weirdly tiring? At normal speed our legs act like pendulums, swinging forward from the hip & saving us a huge amount of energy. In "museum shuffle" our muscles must do ALL the work of constant readjustment. So cake in the cafe is scientifically justified 🥳
