Posting from under the covers...

Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse... have you seen the new Cabinet??? If you're American or Canadian it will probably just be a smaller Senate to you. To the Brits - try not to wake up screaming in the early hours, I expect I will!

I worked from home today. My back was bothering me after travelling to work on a small, overcrowded train yesterday morning, and the forecast high temperatures today didn't inspire me to soldier on regardless. Before I started work I went for a walk, to make the most of the (slightly more) moderate temperatures. I know I've been letting the pre-work walks slide for the last few weeks, either through pain or laziness, but I'm feeling more energetic now. I managed three miles in an hour, hardly top speed but I wasn't racing anyone. And its an improvement on the approx 750 steps I manage when working from home and not going for a walk!

I then made the mistake of watching lots of videos of the Mueller testimony in the US. To an outsider its astonishing Trump hasn't been impeached, and the more I see or read the more amazing it is. I hope our parliament doesn't let things go so far before they start seriously clipping BoJo's wings - and those of his far right Cabinet. But I'm not holding my breath, mainly because I don't actually know what would be a better situation right now.
