Interpretations of international law are definitely in the eye of the interpreter.

I was thinking about AI bots as counsellors but realise that I'm already late to the party

"Wysa and Woebot, offer 24/7, low-cost, and anonymous mental health support, often using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques."

Listened @DwayneFields on bbcradio4 #desertislanddiscs earlier.

Whatever the world throws at you, keep the faith.

Also spoke fondly of one of his teachers.

My takeaway: the ability of teachers to make kids feel 10ft tall. We can build just as easily as we can knock down.

For after sunset, obvs...

I have kinda quit for this month, but the Iraqi bossman was pitching this as £12 for 24 GLASS bottles and that was an offer I couldn't refuse...

Guess who just fixed a F22 fault on a Vaillant boiler?

What a beautifully low-key love story movie

The places I travel for bargain...

I know folk who have 8 to mini eggs in one go...

4 servings on some packs!

When you buy some crisps, biscuits or chocolates and it says "serves 4" on the packet.

Erm, we ain't in Lilliput my guy.

Shout out to my Year 10 class.

Top group of group people.

"Sir, how has your day been?"

"Sir, are you okay, you look a little down?"

"Sir, did you mark my questions?"

"Sir, can you read my answer?"

And at the end, as they leave...

"Thank you sir, have a good day."

Past me: keep your waterproof in the boot.

Present me: Why didn't I leave my waterproof in the boot?

Gonna be a soggy parkrun

Fave Phil Collins song?

Shocking end to the week.

Late Friday.

Speaking to a colleague when she casually drops this:

"I saw this film last week. Back to the Future. Decent film, have you watched it?"

Yes. This was the first time they'd seen it.

Found a parkrun that wasn't cancelled.

A little icy but we'll manage.

Unfortunately for my waistline, every Sunday morning is a special occasion!

Hard shell, soft and gooey inside, very sweet...heart filling!

Have yourself a jalebi merry Christmas!

The team made sure I got the memo this year.

Bah humbug.

I know this sounds clichéd (and it is hard to see when it's pissing down, the place is covered in snot, everyone's ill and the internet is down) but I'm convinced that it is these moments that, when they are gone, you will miss the most.

Have a wonderful final week everyone.

I treated myself to 3 pieces for a late breakfast.

No regrets.

There, fixed it for you 😏

I think this was just before he about to go out! 😆

I, of course, had fallen asleep hours prior

Some advice I read once: imagine you lose your job, and look at your outgoings. Which would you cut down on immediately? Why not do that now?
