Strolling along here earlier today. What a beautiful sight; Raffles Hotel flying the Union Jack, with a lovely row of traditional street lamps leading one’s eye to Big Ben.
A year ago my MH was rock bottom and the end was close. In this past year I’ve learned more about who I am and embrace life in ways I didn’t think I could. Never be afraid or ashamed to ask for help. DM me if anyone needs a brother to listen

The International Energy Agency is this morning suggesting people should work from home, avoid air travel and drive at lower speeds to help tackle impending oil shortages
The International Energy Agency (IEA) has issued a list of “demand side measures” that governments, businesses and households could take to alleviate the impact of soaring oil prices and disruption to supplies
It has also recommended that ministers could reduce road speed limits, reduce car access to designated zones in large cities and give vehicles with odd-numbered plates access on different weekdays to those with even-numbered plates.
Fatih Birol, the IEA executive director, said: “The war in the Middle East is creating a major energy crisis, including the largest supply disruption in the history of the global oil market. In the absence of a swift resolution, the impacts on energy markets and economies are set to become more and more severe.”
The report also recommended that travellers “avoid air travel where alternative options exist” and switch from private cars to public transport

This is bad.
I was quiet on here this morning because on my way to Chiswick from East London, I got into an altercation with a third world person. He was drunk, stoned and looking for trouble. I explained to him that I was going to sit there in my seat in peace and he wasn’t going to bully me or push me around. There was some contact, but nothing bad. It was quite obvious though to everyone else in the carriage, that this wasn’t going to end well. Interestingly, as I sat there waiting for the next salvo, the train pulled into a station and a tfl Swat team of five blokes got on, grabbed him and pulled him out. Someone had obviously reported him. I have to say, I was very impressed by them. Dealt with swiftly and professionally. Good work.
