There are two active pickpockets at the foot of the escalators at Bond St station, watch your stuff more than usual. I saw them mark me so evaded (and pissed them off) but lots of partygoers and shoppers out. Grim.

Ultrasound appointment this morning. It’s probably just scar tissue from my radiotherapy which is more obvious now that I’ve lost a bunch of weight, but I do have a definite neck lump.
You young folks won’t remember neck lumps, but they were big in the 70s. Billy Connolly did a bit about them.

The pilot and navigator were catapulted straight into the roof and sustained injuries incompatible with life -Russian propaganda bloggers.
