    Been in A&E/hospital with Little Miss Shady again for the last few days. Discharged now though. When she gets a chest infection/cough it seems to hit her much harder than most and she gets short of breath/low oxygen. :-( Hopefully she grows out of it.

    I think LMS might be older than Stuart Ingo so maybe not relevant, but our youngest was in twice, once for 5 days, with RSV. He's always had a weak chest but seems to be getting better as he gets bigger.

    Looking back, I had similar issues when I was young - but I think my mum and dad just kind of pushed me out the door to school and I slowly recovered. No time for hospitals in those days.

    Saw a poster on tube saying 5G is coming to the Underground. My first thought was it will be the only place in London where it does work then.

    I get the "serial offender" bs, but even so, Chelsea can clearly afford about 10 time more than we can

    You're such a sheep. That's what they want you to think. The mind control works just fine.

    Arrived at office at about 830 this morning, finally got inside at 945. Huge queue outside due to climate protestors having gained access to the downstairs reception and building management freaking out, locking the building down and making everyone enter through the annex and the goods lift that holds about 12 people. Building has several thousand working in it.
    This was despite notice of potential protests weeks ago and plans allegedly in place to prevent just such an incident, with extra security outside and access card scanning supposedly to happen at an outer perimeter (the scanners didn't work this morning and they have had to wait until the company in San Diego woke up to investigate).

    The typical posh twat woman trying to give leaflets to people in the queue was getting short shrift as she kept telling people they didn't intend to cause any inconvenience. Despite telling her to fuck off she tried to engage with me. Eventually "you're not right in the head, fuck off" did the trick and she moved on.

    Will be WFH rest of week.

    Similar happened at our place last year. I arrived in a cycling helmet, shorts and t-shirt (intending to use the office shower) and was immediately surrounded by police who thought I was about to try and scale the building (as someone was currently doing). Was great fun.

    To be fair I imagine your e-fit's all over the babylon PNC given your form.

    I'm sure it will be, for almost everybody. But that's pretty inevitable when we've been fed ideological bollocks about being able to cut taxes while maintaining or improving public services for 14 years, with all the savings funnelled into the pockets of the rich. I expect it'll take five years before we see much improvement in services - by which time people will have forgotten Cameron/May/Johnson/Truss/Sunak and Bad Enoch or whoever will promise tax cuts, the bastards will get back in again and the whole shoddy cycle will start again. People are thick.

    I expect this written across the front of the dispatch box. Still, someone has got to pay for the global corporations syphoning off our wealth.

    It's going to be a bit shit for everyone but I don't see any other option. Stuff needs fixing because the country has been fucked. We have no money because the country has been fucked. The government has been clumsy so far but I don't think they are too far away from the deeply unpopular pragmatism we need to sort at least the foundations out.
