Everything is possible (and easy to do) when you allow more than three times the time it 'should' take.

I was in Shenzhen yesterday, the place is absolutely swarming with electric motor bikes and three wheeled delivery carts. No pollution of course but they're sneaking up on you from all angles even in narrow alleys. Freakin' scary.

I start everyday slowly with a strong cuppa and breakfast. Today, scrambled eggs on a bagel. Keep it simple and only eat what you love. #homecooking #quickandeasy

One for @MikeyFox re Yorkshire tea

Britain loves tea more than almost any nation on earth. PG Tips — Jersey private equity. Tetley — India. Clipper — France/Dutch roots. Pukka — Jersey private equity. Four huge tea brands on British shelves. Not one British-owned. Yorkshire Tea and Twinings are still ours. 🧠 We didn’t just drink tea. We sold it to the world. Then sold the companies too.

A bird (poss Great Tit) has laid an egg in our postbox and used some of our dog's hair to build its nest. Got to be the cutest thing ever!

Every time I see old couples, I always wonder how many times they’ve forgiven each other.

It's not that life is short (although it seems a lot shorter once past 50), but that we waste time on inconsequential things that don't bring us joy. Have that beer. Take that walk. Spend quality time with loved ones. Whatever. Enjoy your day as best you can.

Ontologically it's the difference between living from being in opposition to uncertainty (worry, anxiety) and living from acceptance of uncertainty (curiosity, wonder). The latter gets drummed out of us by the school system and if there's any left it's crushed by corporate life.

The only postbox with two, opposite openings in Britain can be found in the grounds of the Royal Hospital Chelsea. The two apertures allow both the public (outside the walls) and the pensioners (inside) to use the box when the gates are closed.

The 7 PM version of me usually creates a lot of technical debt for the 7 AM version of me. Debugging that handover is the real challenge.

Right...are we go on Piefest as the first RMS competition of 2026? Any kind of pie, but deductions for no all round pastry and savoury, etc. Tell us what you think, and RT if you like. #piefest

A ##FF on a Sunday Worth following @JShar76788 a shrewd finance veteran who will offer some interesting insights I'm sure. He kicks off with a reminder of the horror story of UK finances and the economy in 1976.
