Reading your posts, I’m reminded of my encounter aged 5 in Argentina. Staying with my grandparents. First day we got caught in a huge locust storm. second day: playing in the back garden. a huge ant like thing flew towards us, carrying a tarantula the size of my hand. Hovered in front of us, stung the spider a few times with its golf ball sized thorax, then dropped it in front of us.

Anyone want a MacPro 3.1 2008 Tower?

Free to collect in the next 4 days from Wandsworth, South West London.

I wish they made them like this again. Absolute workhorse. 🥲

Catch of the day. There is a junction at Tooting that has achieved legendary status.
FUVs* try to cut the turn by ignoring the clear markings and driving over the pedestrian walkway - only to meet the sharp end of a nicely placed metal bollard.

Driver was ‘outraged’. 😂

I have 20 of these ‘catches’
Will post some more choice ones, when I can find them.

'Tied accommodation' - come from overseas and work for us and we'll house you until you even try to think about leaving - has been going on for YEARS. I know of two large englandshire registered companies who were doing it up in Scotland even though both had Modern Slavery philosophies in their brochures. I'm talking 15 years ago.

This shit is RIFE where I live. Twenty delivery bikes permanently parked up on corner of our street. Drivers are kackered, dirty and living from delivery to delivery. Tied into bike + accommodation slavery in return for a cut of their take.

I was told by a shopkeeper that a local shitbag landlord is housing ten of them in the windowless basement of a vacant shop.

The final piece of the pie is the Police’s complete indifference to what’s going on. Don’t know why. Probably don’t want to wade into a quagmire of criminality and human misery. And the drivers have too much to lose to complain.

My heart goes out to them.
I’m trying to work out who to contact about the basement dwelling. My MP is pretty tenacious. I’m trying her.

My dad was always a bit of a hipster.
In His 20s he rode a Penny Farthing bicycle, then, in later life, a 1939 Riley.
In his 70’s, made himself a Coracle, which he attempted to paddle on the Thames, near Chelsea Bridge. He was intercepted by a policeman.
The second voyage was more successful: in the pond outside his house, on Wandsworth Common.

He was a Dude.
I miss him.

Way back, I was asked to make film about Labour’s minimum wage pledge. Shot at a campaign dinner at a posh London Hotel.

2 hours into filming, we’d got to the kitchens, interviewing staff, who were not particularly keen.

Suddenly, a spad pops up, ‘Filming’s cancelled’.

No explanation. Their media officer wouldn’t tell me.

Later found out that the kitchen crew weren’t on minimum wage. 🥹

You would think they’d check, given their policy commitment?

Ass covering & Optics.

I rarely drive. I had to drive across London today. Main thought, was how utterly filthy the whole place looks, everything caked in grey dirt - thrown up by a bazillion cars.

Going through Tooting, there where Susana Hill Anti Ulez Plackards taped to junction railings.

They were filthy, too.
Perhaps more so. 😕

Gríma Wormtongue explains that his poundshop Sauron wasn’t dithering. He needed time to reflect on the momentous nature of things.

The only thing that imbecile sees when he reflects on anything is himself.

Trying to set up the NHS app to be able to view and manage my mum’s medical records and appointments has turned into a kafkaesque odyssey of mismanagement, endless repetition and dead ends.

I’m tech literate and determined. How the fuck are people my mum’s age supposed to navigate this crap alone?
