After weeks of fiddling I have finally submitted my latest copywriting assignment. Henceforth Iโm putting myself on a strict two weeks per lesson schedule.
If I ever win big on the lottery Iโm buying
- a little house but with space for a baby grand piano, a guest bedroom, a study and a vegetable garden.
- a Bechsteinn
- a Welsh dresser filled with artisan pottery.
And I will acquire
- at least 2 rescue cats
- a spaniel
And
- maybe chickens.
Really not getting clear signals from body about if swimming would be good and perk me up. Or not.
Brain is tired and therefore not entirely connecting with rest of body.
Iโve done quite a lot more than I might usually do this week. Think Iโm gonna give it a rest.
With Baker and Rees-Mogg both gone the more stealthy influence of Tufton Street and the ERG wanes.
Rees-Mogg isnโt just ugh for his views on abortion etc. His economic ideology (sovereign individualism where the very wealthy are effectively freed of any responsibility to the state) is loathesome.
Yeah. I just canโt get excited when Labour are transphobic, ableist and equivocal about the Climate Emergency.
The surge in votes for R*f*rm - reveals the extent of xenophobia, racism, and gullibility. They will do *nothing* for their voters other than make them poorer and scapegoat migrants.
Why is it not Saturday though. Why do I have to spend the day trying to corral my brain into working when all I feel like is lying on the sofa eating chocolate and watching tennis.
So. The nasty party (and in 4 cases the good guys) got elected in no small measure because the very nasty party vote got split between the very nasty party and the utter knuts party.
We must congratulate the BBC Question Time production team; after decades or constantly promoting their candidate they have finally gotten Nigel Farage elected.
Greens are now the second party in my constituency with more than four times the conservative vote and twice the Lib Demโs and conservatives combined. And a +17% increase in the share of the vote.
Similar result in Stokey.
Iโll take that.

The rise of Reform is a fucking disaster for this country. Too many constituencies where the Labour majority only exists because the knooot vote has been split.
The further legitimisation of that gurning frog faced bellend and his grifter Putin endorsing start-up.
Ugh. Ugh ugh ugh.
Democratic duty discharged.
Feel a tiny bit anxious Iโve done the wrong thing by voting with my whole heart not holding my nose. Because I donโt live in a marginal.
The Greens are the only party who are offering a vision for the future. The rest are stuck in a fossil fuelled regressive past.
Oh god - for all the myriad ills of this election and despite how meh I feel about the likely winners - I just got a hit of anticipatory schadenfreude at the thought of watching the Tories get a drubbing.
Today beginneth the experiment where I see what it would be like to live on the lowest salary Iโm prepared to go down to for a career change.
At least dry July rhymes.
Digital clothing/ sustainability innovation.
Instead of listing the body measurements garments are designed to fit - list the garment measurements. In detail. Let customers choose the amount of ease they want.
I promise you this will reduce returns/ wastage in the system.
