Taking bets on me losing my umbrella this evening.

Fwiw, I'm betting that I will.

Woken up from a weirdly dream. I was late leaving a hotel in Edinburgh, and then got trapped in a wedding party so I missed my train, and then my laptop broke whilst I tried booking a reward flight but they were also sold out.

I think I just have nightmares about being in unresolvable situations.

IKEA's AI chatbot is especially useless...

After a few Sunday afternoon vodkas I've caved and bought a full length LNER 225 model, for far too much money!

Went shopping for trainers and underwear, actually bought trainers and underwear.

It's rare I go clothes shopping and actually buy what I intended too.

Chiltern Railways really needs some new trains, the train I'm on has just been overtaken by a Met line train.

Music: 🎢 You'd better not kill the groove..
My Bluetooth headphones: "Battery Low, Power off"

Well. I guess they did kill the groove.

Also forgot how 2010s BBC re-used the same 12 actors in any and every series...

I'm about half way through my rewatch of BBC's Merlin and I forgot how good the sound design and score is!

Thought I might treat myself to a bunch of roses from Sainsbury's but for Β£20 a bunch I'll treat myself to rum instead.

My work laptop is installing updates which keep closing Chrome without notice and I'm either throwing my laptop out the window, or myself.

The lifts are playing "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo" this morning and it is making me feel the opposite of magical.

In Sainsbury's just now, nobody near the tills. After a minute of waiting asked a passing supervisor who then sent a guy over to approve the Challenge 25. Asked him to remove the tag from the bottle and he had the audacity to say "I'm very busy right now". Like that's my fault/problem????

Why the fuck does Microsoft Teams want to know my location???

Of all the apps I'm likely to give my location to, Teams is dead last.
