NEW: I’m not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got.

After tumultuous week, worth reflecting:
In the 37 years from 1979 to 2016 there were just 5 prime ministers.
In the 6 years since 2016 we’ve also had 5 PMs
Something pretty destabilising must have happened that year
Something about doing things because they are technically possible / challenging ….

Genuinely stunned by leaflets pushed through the door overnight. Not sure whether to laugh at the outrageous claims or be terrified that some people might believe it!
At #KaleidoscopeLondon listening to @stephenfry talking technology, philosophy and great sense. Brilliant!
Couple arguing next to me while waiting for a train. She just said very loudly “do you even like small talk” ... terrified that my first reaction was to wonder why she was bringing OO languages into it
4 long haul flights with @EtihadAirways every time family scattered, staff unhelpful / disinterested. Saved by lovely fellow passengers who swapped seats to avoid kids sitting on their own. Is this appalling IT or a deliberate ploy to force you to pay extra?

Enjoying the best waiting room / coffee shop on the rail network... Leamington Spa for the aficionado. Don’t worry this isn’t the start of a series of photos of random work locations!

Train to work delayed as someone missed his stop and pulled the emergency cord so the train could go back and drop him off. Words fail me.
