Yes! Meaningful progress has been made on Mane-of-Night and The Brave New World - in that our heroine has reached her destination, and is starting to work out what the hell happens next...
Pity the office is so bloody cold right now, and I'm not 100% "back in the groove" yet. This is a short week, work-wise - got to be thankful for small mercies, I guess.
Meanwhile, we have our first political "faux pas" of the year - some good quality hypocrisy from the most high-profile (insert whatever term is acceptable to the PC crowd) MP, who's famous for her stand against racism. Pity she feels that it's okay to be racist against white people.
If she was white, expressing similar opinions about the non-white community, she would be sacked on the spot, not given the luxury of taking it back, or blaming the 140-character limit on Twitter. Diane Abbott should resign.
And finally, let's be honest - "assisted dying" cannot possibly lead to "ethnic cleansing" of the old and disabled (Is that word okay to use these days? You can never tell...) in a country like this. In old Romania, or North Korea, maybe, but here? You have to be joking.
And did I really hear someone from some anti-assisted-dying group say that "people shouldn't be allowed to commit suicide just because they're afraid of death"... WTF?
