I’ve had great success in the past with Dan Lepard’s Stollen recipe.

I searched for its name and didn’t get any hits… I gather there were once three, and this seems to be the last remaining.

Worth looking after your knees from an early age.

in the morning

Oh. I might just check my work meeting calendar if it’s still up for grabs…

I went out this morning for a look—found a cool tunnel under the A13 by Mayes Brook, but did not find that bus stop.

The street is definitely on Google Maps; haven’t checked if streetmaps has it though—the mural seems to have gone up in 2019.

Sometimes people say that I am hard to shop for, and yet this exists

ordered a £30 crimping tool

Get a testing tool as well, and leave enough slack at each end in case you need to have another go or two—you can always stuff extra length somewhere, but you can’t make cut cables longer.

Sewing patches onto a Carradice

I moved my own Humanscale Liberty between a few offices for a long time too; a bit cheaper, and the mesh back blended in better with the corporate chairs. We had a Humanscale saddle chair in one place too, nice for “guest seating”. I bought some Kaiser + Kraft workshop stools for that purpose too.

I bought a hat from Turific; it took ages to arrive but it is really really nice.

hopefully I don't lose my job

Yes. I work for a charity where there is some radical belt tightening under way—income down something like 30% even before Brexit and the recession hit…

there will a price to pay [to rejoin the EU]

I’m hoping for “you’ll be driving on the right from now on”, and “all those speed limits are kilometres per hour”.

discussions around an extension to the transition period due to COVID started to gain traction

That can’t possibly be the case, I got this in the post this morning:
