Dear Readers, I do worry about AI, as well as infidelity, international spies and capitalist tech barons….

It’s just so….unnecessary. And, as others have said, noting the influence of Stonewall, a way to bring the real conversion practice into law.

1.39am the last firework sounded. Come on lads, Diwali may be about light over darkness, but it was a bugger to get to sleep last night. Tbf I’d be fine up to 10pm.

It’s also Diwali today. Celebrating the triumph of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. And Remembrance Sunday. Seems an apt coupling.

3/END Christmas trees are up - as is the use of the word β€œFayre”. Oh, and those golden studs (forgive the lamentable boots) are put into pavements to mark the extent of a cafes/shop’s curtilage on the pavement. Spare a few moments folks to remember those who fell. (I know you will)

2/n As a former rower can I just say that Ladies who row had a certain appeal (in my youth). Good shoulders and firm arms. I married a netball player who took up aerobics. And for a few glorious years (PS: she’s a lawyer) I was able to say I was going out with an aerobics instructor. Nowadays, I am not proud of this wanton denial of my future wife’s intellectual capabilities in favour of her firm bod and ability to gyrate next to a boombox - but it made all my male friends jealous. And what man doesn’t want to do that.
