I can highly recommend sliced orange segments, 0% fat Greek yoghurt, chopped walnuts, and Greek ‘forest’ honey. A fresh and clean dessert.

Urgh, the new students next door are horrible. So loud that I can hear them word for word. I guess I can say this because I live the Cambridge cliché, but they are not one of us.

Rock and Roll house band seems to have no cut-off. It’s so loud I can’t concentrate on my Kindle.

Well, I’m in Rhodes. Same hotel as last year. This time they’ve labelled all the food with allergy advice. Every single dessert has gluten and nuts in them. Apart from the bananas and pineapple chunks. I had a salad and a banana. I’m now tired and grumpy.

Ray Winstone is a terrible actor. Or rather his varied and weird accents are.

There are loads of 🏴 flags strung up on lampposts in Milton Keynes, where my parents live. Particularly gammony in Newport Pagnell. I’ve not seen any up in Cambridge.

Lovely hairdresser came to the house. He’s really understanding about my head-touching phobia since ECT-gate. And also my stupid costochondritis makes it difficult to move about.

Got to be gutting to lose two slams in a row. Sabalenka was super, particularly in the tie-break. Anisimova showed up today and did not tank in a double bagel. It was much closer than Wimbledon.

I love my friends, but dear god - stop with all the doorstep first day of school photos. I genuinely care nothing for your children. I’m sure they’re all lovely, but ENOUGH.

Despite having a shower, clean clothes, now sitting in another house, I can still smell Addenbrooke’s on me.

So glad I was allowed to go home early. Things were still bonkers, but I just cut myself out of the drama and said goodbye. I cannot abide incompetence.

Such a stressful day at work. Supposed to have left at 9pm. Didn’t leave until nearly 11pm due to various very complicated issues. Got to work at 12.15 and left at 22.55. It was one hell of a shift.

I’ve got DASH training tomorrow (Domestic Abuse Stalking and Honour Based Violence). Mum is driving me up to Huntingdon. It’s important that I do it, but I’m cross that this is yet another thing I’m doing on a non-working day.

Ilford in the news again. My home, never notable for its lovely parks. Glad I live in Cambridge now.

My fuzzy buddy was brilliant at the V.E.T. He likes a fuss and purred and rolled around. He’s still a little heavy, but has not gained any weight since last year (actually he’s a little less, but he still needs to shift a bit).

To add to my dreadful health day, FB reminds me that today in 2023 I was in A&E after taking an overdose.

My HomePod is listening in to The Lost Boys. During a particularly dramatic scene Siri pops us and says “uh huh, I’m glad to hear that”. I can only conclude that she is a creature of the night.

MSc is good to go. Start in Sept with the OU. It will confer BPS registration/conversion. Step one on my journey to becoming a clinical psychologist. It’ll be a long road but I’m motivated.
