Translation: oh shit, people are now beginning to see through the bollocks I've spouted all these years. Better do something that seems important but is ultimately meaningless.

This is a bloody good report. And I urge everyone on both sides to read it and take in its lessons. Not to use it to favour your own agenda. Otherwise, the truly vulnerable will get let down again.

One of the best bits of writing on the StreetSpace judgement. Reasoned and sensible, and hopefully a wake-up call to engage with people better. Rules don't just go away because we are in the middle of a pandemic.

The fact that the Western section of the Oxford to Cambridge railway had got some funding is good. But no electrification? Really? All to save a few quid on the build cost? Come on Rt Hon Sir Grant Shapps. It's a great railway. Make it better than that. bbc.co.uk/news/business-โ€ฆ

You know you've been around a long time when half of the things mentioned here came around at least a decade after you first logged on. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Filled up the car with petrol today, 4 months from the last time I did it. I've filled it up 3 times since last March, and one time was because I had to go to Southampton to pick up a laptop. At least the pandemic has cratered my fuel bill and travel CO2 emissions.

People in my area spent most of the afternoon having socially distanced snowball fights, sledging, and generally fooling around in the snow. I know we must obey the rules, but you know what, I don't blame any of them for a second. Have some joy FFS.

Finally cracked Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity today. Far from the best Zelda game, but still bloody good fun. And it makes you appreciate the back story to Breath of the Wild much more. Despite that time travelling thing...

Oh my word this. If anyone says that they are only thinking of disabled people in making their views, ask how many of them they have asked what they want. Then watch them fall silent. If you want to know how the vulnerable feel about something, fucking ask them.
