Johnson is a lying scumbag

Now Johnson is trying to claim that his screeching U-turn isn't actually a U-turn, but that he only briefly considered not isolating. This may be swallowed by the drooling Express readers, but when you consider what his former bestie Cummings did, it's pretty much one rule for them and a different rule for the rest of us. It is, actually, sheer unbelievable audacity that they would even try a pilot scheme that allows them to not do the same as everybody else.
So, no, he didn't "briefly consider". He would be doing this no-isolation thing right now if it wasn't for the uproar that it created. His U-turn is basically because he is a populist Prime Minister, and the people were not going to accept this.

Will there be a FREEDOM!!! Day tomorrow? It's going to be something of a farce given the rise in cases (helped along massively by the football) and the PM and health secretaries both in isolation.

Fiddling with the strimmer

Coding outside

So I dug up my battery, some USB leads, a wireless keyboard (AZERTY!), and an old mouse. This was coupled with my original Pi (1 model B), and ShareFS used to drop some up to date files onto the machine (and retrieve updates afterwards).

It actually worked surprisingly well, given the small size of the screen. My main problem was in remembering where the keys were (English layout, not what was on the keyboard). It helped to try typing without looking. ☺

Open air coding.
