Status update
Trying to download & open the .exe file is proving problematic.
I'm not overly concerned as those nice folk at BT are going to hardwire me into the 'system'. Currently trying to run everything over WIFI that max's out at 3mb p.,s.
Too slow to catch a cold!
It also goes some way to explaining why I appear to drop in and out, not anti-social but the boot, reboot is f'ing tedious.
Anyway end of my birthday day today.
More undoubtedly will follow. #MUWF

#Personal #GeneralFactotum #PalkyWorld & my in house #relationship with Le Patron. Today's thought. 1st is 'performing' ( I forgot this previously) then 'norming' etc. Experience over the last 4 months bears this out. Last two days bit confrontational, I think we now know were each other stands. Of course no ingratitude from me but i) don't push it ii) politeness iii) avoid assumptions. These apply on both sides. Hey ho. #MUWF xP

@therightarticle #ToriesOut Stoopid is as stoopid speaks. Problem i) his toxicity infects a wider pool than just the ERG in the house ii) previous MP's have lost the whip but not their seat. That's a wider issue that will only be addressed when we change our NFFP 'electoral system' incl. our 'constituency' way of voting. Some variant of PR needs to happen soon. Unfortunately I don't believe Starmer will keep his word if he ever gets into power (gawd help us). Only my opinion mind. #MUWF

@hilaryjohn2 Continuig toot. Also '60's / '70's influencers were 'The Walden Project' 'An experiment in social living' + the ideas of #Buckminster-Fuller, + "The personal is the political" (Attrib. Simone de Beauvoir, '#TheSecondSex') + "En recherche des temps perdue" (#Camus / #Sartre?) & much other philosophy / metaphysics. Most influential latterly has been 'The Black Swan' by NTT, Have #GeneralFactotum duties now, #MUWF xP
