I once met Sean Lock in a sandwich shop in the old Kings Cross station. He was coming in and I was just leaving, both with wheely suitcases. The shop was very narrow, so the suitcases collided. I said "sorry, Sean" as though I'd known him for ages. He was very nice about it. RIP.

Call me a soppy old sentimentalist but there's something quite heartwarming about uncovering a mains socket that's been hidden behind a wardrobe for 20 years and then plugging something into it and seeing that it still works.

Of course the sad thing is that it's going to be unceremoniously ripped out of the wall in about 2 days time but still.

This is arguably actually pretty solid advice given that Covid transmits mostly through the air and incessant surface-cleaning is mostly performative at best
