Bruised, sore, sad.
The “normal” of being wobbly and prone to falling and losing balance occasionally gives way to a full on fall.
This happened on Friday. Both hands, both knees, and my head broke the fall.
Everything aches, especially my pride

People on trains who are so loud and obnoxious and also wearing employer branded gilets. If anyone is hearing impaired and in the market for a Blackpool based surveyor then I’ve absolutely got a recommendation for you. No phone or zoom required. Guaranteed.

Happy Saturday. Not in the stocks, so must’ve been good this week.

Serious question though. What is the carbon footprint, and ecological impact of @itvnews.bsky.social sending their correspondents to Antarctica, Bahamas, France, and Devon for a news story on global warming?

I brought my handbag mustard with me on holiday, and it feels very at home!
Also, before anyone says otherwise, it is PERFECTLY NORMAL to always take your preferred condiment with you wherever you go.

Camping stress levels are now so high that last night I woke up at 4am having a nightmare that there were 7 kids in my tent smoking cigars, drinking whisky, and playing poker. Basically this. But with children instead of dogs!

Serious question though. How have I survived 40 years of life without a heated gilet?

4 years ago we were at the very peak of being fascinated by this, stuck in a canal.
It was a simpler time.
Just in case you were wondering, #Evergiven was last seen off the coast of Cape Town en route to Port Klang from Rotterdam. Taking the long way round this time.

It’s so bizarre how loud people can be. Even noise cancelling headphones can’t block out the surgical device rep in this carriage. I’m learning so much about just how keen Neil really is in purchasing the 55 fibre optic option with increased LV waveform. In fact, I’d say it’s a done deal!
