My company food allowance is £50 per day. Realised I can buy a couple of homeless people a sizeable meal whenever I travel and consume fewer calories at the same time. Makes me feel great and have had some great chats with real people. Do it if you can.

Funny how the world is.
We all come from different homes, backgrounds, families, countries and we all see life/events from a hugely different perspective.
We should try to remember this when we are all confidently telling it as it is. Me included.
None of it is black or white.

Last One Laughing on Amazon Prime is stand out funny... cannot recommend it highly enough (if you have it) and it's a reminder of the outstanding comedy talent we have here... you just want to see these people in something more than just game and panel shows.
