No. Consumers should stop slaughter of animals full stop. Eating meat is a barbaric practice that’s no longer necessary.

Consumers should demand humane slaughter of pigs

🦠 Good News! I’ve had a high temperature and a slight cough this week but it turns out I’m just complaining and there’s nothing to worry about. Feeling better today 😁

Absolutely incredible race by Team Ineos UK today in the Prada Cup. They’re absolutely smashing it. 😁⛵️ Proper edge of seat stuff!

By the way, when they say they aren’t going to make them worse, they are lying.

It’s okay though, because we’ve “taken back control”

Going to spice things up this weekend, just bought myself a Nutt Plug. Anyone else ever used one? Reviews look good.

Is it sad when getting the Tesco delivery is the most exciting event of the week?

Yes. Yes it is. 😔

But who cares, we had no subs today on a £100+ order! 🥳 Even got fresh Edamame beans which I haven’t seen for months.

Keeping up with the Vendée has been great, but I have to say, watching Team Ineos smash their way through the first weekend of the Prada Cup Round Robins has been pretty special. 🇬🇧⛵️

Just quietly normalising the use of Facial Recognition. Because Pandemic. This won’t end well.

[…] Britain to use GPS and facial-recognition technology to check that people are staying in isolation.

A historic change, hopefully for the good. The hoards of people riding scooters at rush hour holding up their passports for authorities always seemed a bit silly.

I still find it completely baffling that the best solution we have for our rubbish is to either bury it in hole or put it on a ship and send it to a poor country. About time we literally sorted our shit out.

They couldn’t make them return if they tried. This isn’t extraordinary anymore, it’s normal. Everyone has a taste for it now.

🚣 Everyone, it has arrived! 🥳 Cant wait to get it out of the box and get rowing later! So. Excited.

Now, must focus on work, busy day. (I feel like a kid and Christmas who’s been told no presents until after dinner!!!) 😂

📚 Just finished reading Tortilla Flat by John Steinbeck. Beautiful book with a rather sad ending. The short chapter about the children and the beans is absolutely the highlight. Never have I read something that’s made me want to drink wine more than this!! 🍷😂

07:29 PM

🚣 Can’t wait for this to become a daily routine. 😁 Very happy with it so far, absolutely perfect. Have certainly lost some fitness since October 😳 Hopefully I’ll be back stronger in a few weeks 💪 Overall, 100% worth the wait! Can’t wait to not drive to the gym again 😂

🦠 Just to re-affirm my position… I WOULD get the vaccine if it’s offered to me. I am NOT concerned about which one, I am not a doctor. I WOULD get the vaccine at ANY hour should the centre offering them operate 24/7.

…but I realise I’m basically on the bottom of the list!

No-Spend-Jan is going great, except that I don’t get to update YNAB anywhere near as much as I am used to 😭 Still, is what it is….!

🦠 Tried drinking a coffee during my run earlier today. Did not go well. 10/10 do not recommend, should be banned.

Another cheeky weekend walk this morning, 7km wander around Chattenden Lodge Hill Barracks. Lovely walk, despite the sinister signs! 🐶🚶‍♂️

A lovely, fresh 7km walk around Grain sea wall this morning. Far too many people walking about here in Upnor so we got ourselves out of everyone’s way. It was just above 0°C with a cold mist in the air but Dexter was not fussed at all! (Still refuses To wear his coat!)
