Well said Shappi

Every so often I stumble on a story which just feels wrong. Or even completely made up.

The feud between Megan and Kate feels like one of theee stories.

Shappi highlights that women are generally seen to make friends easily and natter often.

I know from work that while such friendships occur, they also break down and not everyone gets on with everyone else.

So who cares if they do or don’t get on, they’re human. That happens. The fact that they haven’t fought with bare knuckles shows that perhaps they can tolerate each other and behave like adults.

If only the readers, let alone the journalists reporting such tripe, could do the same.

Leave them be.

Fascinating timing

I am not one to normally consider a conspiracy theory.

However…

The timing of this report coming so close to the increased pressure on the Prime Minister to address the Brexit vote sooner than January, seems a little convenient.

The numbers of people wanting to come to the UK has decreased. That’s a matter of record.

So these issues with migrants would appear to be well timed to frighten those who want to stop all immigration. And one can imagine they will then be easily swayed, if they were wavering, to stick with team Leave.

Cynical? Me? About this and May’s continues fervour, absolutely.

Fallout 76 disappointed, this one shouldn’t

I’m a big fan of Fallout, at least I was until Fallout 76. I was wary when it was announced but felt sure Bethesda couldn’t get it wrong, again, surely?

Seems I was wrong. Multiplayer favours the trolls and we know how the world has developed into troll heaven.

This new game from the original Fallout creators goes back to the sort of roots that 76 should have favoured.

I’m really looking forward to this:

Lovely meal with good friends

Good friends can stay good friends without the need for constant contact. How do I know that? Because I have a few great friends who fit that bill. I have others with whom contact is almost daily, but the best ones somehow don’t need that permanency.

Here’s a photo of a burger I had in The Mayflower, near Hazlemere in Bucks yesterday (2nd December, 2018) when catching up with Av, Row and Av’s mum:
