I am now on day 12 of this horrible illness which I think started out as a nasty winter flu and has now progressed to a sinus infection & chest infection

I still have a fever (38.5) after 12 fucking days

I have an appointment at my local health centre in 45 minutes. My local health centre is a 6/7min walk away but I live on a hill so it’s 200 concrete steps down to get there & 200 concrete steps back up to get home.

I have not left the house (other than to pick up my white label test pressing 90seconds walk away) in 12 days. I’ve hardly left my bed in that time. I barely have the energy to go from my room to the bathroom & back. How am I going to walk up 200 steps?

Also, it’s -9°C outside

fuck everything

This one?

A Europe-leading way of losing patent hearings, @Epimer?

We have this stupid video conference stuff that automatically connects to your camera. No-one wants to see me working topless from bed so :man_shrugging:

Balham has an FC? I did not know this. Hmm. Might have to pay a visit.

Not sure why they’re called Balham FC… they play somewhere out Kingston way, I think.

However, they’re upwardly moble - 5 promotions in 6 seasons.

The earlier flight is full. So now I’m going The Hague to Schipol to Heathrow to Stansted (to get my car) to home.

Ffs

Oh fuck it then. Was hoping to have a nice local team to visit occasionally as I hardly get down to Dorch anymore. It’s between Tooting & Mitcham and Dulwich then.

In my defence, I didn’t write this one, it’s a steaming pile of shite and they were 100% right to refuse it.

Dia dhuit ar maidin! (That’s Irish for ‘Good morning’, to add to @he_2’s list of greetings.)

Back in work today after a very nice day off post-festival yesterday. Met my old lecturer and arranged to go to gigs with him, met a friend to see how she’s getting on and priced a new bass which I’ll be putting a deposit down for today. Saw my friends’ band support British Sea Power too!

I expect work will be quite boring and my voice is absolutely shot so phone calls are going to be excuciating but I’m not doing overtime and I’m HYYYYPED about buying the bass so that’s good.

Three flights?

A senior side formed out of the youth team Balham Blazers. A bit like if St. Josephs or Magix decided they wanted a senior club for their U18s to progress to.

Why not just wait around for your original flight? See the sights of The Hague?

Balham Blazers? Weren’t they a T4 show?

Wouldn’t it just be easier to wait and go straight to Stansted?

They were probably the evil foils for the Remford Rejects.

Calm down, just the one.

My flight isn’t until 9.

And you forgot to bring a good book? More fool you Epimer, more fool you.
