Still a bit traumatised by the Don McCullin exhibition I went to yesterday even though I knew it would be harrowing. Most disturbing photo caption: “16 year old Biafran with no possibility of survival”.

I’m reading an interview with him atm and on that topic he says:

The moment that undoubtedly changed everything was walking into a schoolhouse one day in 1969 in Biafra during the war and finding 800 dying children. That was a monumental day of sobering up in my life, and it haunts me to this day, because some of those children were dropping dead in front of me. It reminded me of the images I had seen of Belsen some years earlier. These human beings were standing in front of me, thinking I was the bringer of aid, and what did I show up with? Two Nikon cameras round my neck. It was a gut-wrenching, guilt-ridden experience to put that camera to my eye.

Just had a bit of a snooze with Delia making a fish pie in the 80’s in the background.
Watching A Touch of Cloth again now. So good. I feel a really early night is on the cards.

Hello DiS I’m trying to do some work but keep on getting distracted by everything else instead, including DiS, obviously.

I’m really crap at the weekends, I just don’t know how to do them right. I’m pretty good about being social and doing stuff during the week after work, but it gets to the weekend and I regularly don’t go outside for more than 10 minutes to the shops … feels like I need to fix this, don’t want every weekend to pass with so little fanfare. But then i also am a very lazy chill person so

[Witches]

What on earth is a voule? I’ve googled it and so far it’s just asked me if I meant “vole”.

[ericVI]

think she was just winding him up tbh

[Witches]

Bah humbug.

[keith]

That just sounds like you need the break from being social.

I work in a job that requires me to be social and communicate face to face for seven hours a day, so my ideal weekend is speaking to as few people as possible.

[laelfy]

You won’t have this problem next weekend!

[JaguarPirate]

Yeah i think I’m just an introvert with a strong sense of #FOMO, can be pretty annoying at times that’s for sure

[Witches]

Guys, Made.com… it says a door matt has an estimated dispatch of 14-16 weeks. Surely not? That seems excessive.
