I bought a gaming laptop in 2023 so I could play GTA V. 3 years on I've still yet to play GTA V - though it is installed on the laptop.

When I was in my twenties and thirties I was chasing career success. I had very good IT jobs in Banking, and Insurance. My status was king. That was until I realised success and status, really didn't make me happy, it was fleeting. So before I turned thirty-six, I gave up that way of life.

Good to catchup with some friends tonight on Google Meet.
I've known them all for around 36 years now. A good chat.

UK PM visiting China is a good thing. Dialogue is key to relationship with China. We can get good business benefits from China for here in UK. The closest I've been to China was a holiday to Hong Kong in 2008.

Coping with Jetlag since returning from SE Asia 3 days ago, but not coping as well as I usually do. I haven't been able to meditate either, so I need to get better again to do that.

It's time social media platforms and smart phones to be banned for young people. Adults only. It's not the way young people should be brought up.
