Great colour choice; it’s almost unrecognisable!
I have my sound shaken, not stirred.
Phew. Back to work after a whirlwind weekend.
It’s baffling. It’s not like we’ve lived through a pandemic or anything. Now I’m thinking of grown men who have telephone calls at the same time?!
Cool.
(Aaaargh!)

![[We see a close up of a young white male, tanned, white teeth, coiffed hair clearly an influencer on social media. It is an image such as you see when social media posts are shown on the news. In the corner of the screen is named a location: DUBAI. He is staring slightly off-camera for several silent panels of the comic strip. His eyes move slightly. He is having a thought.]
From off-screen a newsreader’s commentary comes:
NEWSREADER:
Extraordinary images here
of an expat in Dubai
[The influencer’s eybrows raise slightly]
…Having their first ever geopolitical thought.
[CUT TO a BBC news scene. The BBC newsreader CLIVE MYRIE is talking to an interviewee next to the screen showing the social media influencer’s face. The interviewee’s name is David Jones].
CLIVE MYRIE:
To explain the significance of this moment we’re joined by David Jones, our Expat Thoughts correspondent
DAVID JONES:
Clive, this is momentous
It was caught on film at the end of an Instagram post titled: ‘Dubai Is Brilliant’.
[Pointing at the screen, the influencer’s expression still the same]
You can clearly see in the eyebrows here, the dawning realisation that there *might* be something in the world beyond his dickhead self.
It marks a *huge* departure from all the Dubai Expat’s previous thoughts.
CLIVE MYRIE:
Which are…?
DAVID JONES:
You've Got To Get Yourself Out Here Mate, Everything Is So Clean, I Don't Have To Pay Taxes,
I Am Incurious As To Why I Do Not Have To Pay Taxes, and Spa.
CLIVE MYRIE:
And might we see an expansion of these new Thoughts in coming days?
DAVID JONES:
I think we can expect to see:
“I Deserve To Be Airlifted By A Country I Pay No Tax To”
CLIVE MYRIE:
Mmm.

Today’s Business Bear Business: networking. At the wrong networking event. But the right triangles of sandwiches.
At the end of Day 4 was the beginning. The beginning of the end without Internet. The start of Internetted. The start of the Information Super Highway. The start of the World Wide Web. The start of now.
Waiting 34 minutes for a bus and two turn up at once. But at least there’s two.

Day 4 of no internet. No packets come. A solitary red note on the door mat. “We missed you”. We miss you too.
Happy Fiftieth to you!
Day 3 of no internet. Our screens lay dormant. Face up. Notifications down. We hold them aloft like divining rods seeking answers that do not come. We take to the window, straining our necks to see beyond.
We had the latest invention, gas lighting!
