Why didn’t I ask if I could been on the flight that was boarding when I got here? Whyyyyyyyyy? Oh well, time to break out the Chromebook. My flight is running 90 minutes late now. This isn’t problem. What I’ve done is gone back to the duty free shop and bout myself some treats. I’m trying not to eat all of my Hachez pepermit mint discs in one go. The packaging on the tube suggested that they were bigger than they actually are, I suspected that, and it’s always a surprise when you find out.
Five minutes of frustration have brought me back here. Reading isn’t an option when it’s the book I’m in the middle of. I reading about the future and not all of it is great. My plan then? Break out Autobahn for the umpteenth time this weekend. This time, I’m streaming it through USB Audio Pro and its amazing. This is the future. I’ve known about this album before and never realised that it was a masterpiece.
This isn’t working. I’m bored for the first time this long weekend. I’m going to Twitterland for a while. Let’s see what’s kicking off there!
The mint thins are a thin thing of the past. Trump has visited France for the Remembrance event to mark 100 years since the WWI armistice. Four years ago we were marking 100 years since the start of that conflict. It looks like he has disrespected everyone except Putin. We must be careful with the USA. They had plans to destroy Britain economically in the 1930 and we are separating from Europe with Brexit.
The next weeks and days are going to be interesting. Our PM (at the moment of writing) is pushing on with a plan that even the ministers who signed in to it don’t like. Some changed their minds, and others just went along with it, hoping it would go away (or Mrs May would go away). The EU don’t like it, the House of Commons don’t like it, and the country doesn’t like it. The country not liking it it is the one I don’t understand. If I don’t know what it is, I have no idea what other people think. Remainers won’t like it because they wanted to remain, and the people who voted to leave will be told that we won’t have control of everything within the shores (and our shores) to stop people coming in. In short, Mr Corbyn has had a formal briefing with MI6. This means no-one likes it, we aren’t going to have a second referendum, and we’re going to have an election. This is our military intelligence service, if there talk of a general election, they’ll be ahead of the curve.
What a general election would do, I have no fucking idea!
Flight due to leave in one hour. Time for a snack before boarding in 30 minutes, with a bit of luck.
