Feeling sad. Had the initial conversation with the vet this morning about Floof and even though I knew this was on the cards and necessary, it’s really upset me. Having to set a date for a vet to come. I’m going to organise it for a few weeks time when I’m back in Wales ☹️

This started off as 40mm square by 1200mm. Profile cut without bench tools (don’t recommend!) in oak this afternoon. Three of them. That deep slot is going to hold a glass shelf. The odd shaped recess is for led lighting 👌

I suppose I should lie on it 🙄 It’s a bed frame. Less of a daybed as was originally suggested. This will take a King size mattress. It’s 750mm high and has two huge drawers to fit your appliances (ahem) in

Ratcliffe doesn't pay tax in the UK. Ratcliffe is a billionaire playboy. Ratcliffe should keep his opinions to himself and the BBC and others do not serve those they pledge to inform educate and entertain by platforming him. Sick of this constant bullshit. Morning 😉

I’ve reached the point - well actually, I reached it a while ago - where I’m militantly anti-AI. Fine - use it in bioscience labs and radiology where it might help analyse data more effectively. Use it sparingly for systems engineering. Everywhere else, it can fuck off.

Hey American followers! This is what we pay in UK for fuel now-that's £8.40 per gallon. 😳 It was £6.00 per gallon last Xmas. Thanks. Trump did this to the whole of Europe too, and we hear you moaning that it's $4 per gallon there. Why haven't you done anything about this dangerous imbecile? 🤷‍♂️

He was right about ULEZ He’s right about Brexit. No need to “revisit old arguments”/lies now we know it’s rubbish and costing us a fortune. Moving on means admitting this and asking about how to now join. Not pretending it’s ok in case Farage loses his shit. www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/sad...

Jason Arday's death will/has quickly become about 'the media shouldn't be censored' & 'journalists shouldn't be condemned'. The discussion that should be had is why journalism can't calmy reflect & scrutinise itself. It's about the culture. The water we swim in. The knee-jerk response confirms this.

Ok, some thoughts, as an olde tyme academic, on the Arday tragedy. First, allegations about causes. We don't know what was in his mind, but many people are keen to blame him, or woke lefties/academia, or the media. Some people are absolutely certain that the media are faultless. 1/
