Jings! In the same box as the print squeegee, unbeknownst to me, was a film squeegee! I think a rewash is in order. We always just used our fingers clasping the film and a swipe down. Any with marks, subsequently, got the swipe on the side of the nose and then down the negatives. I wonder if it has a lot to do with the water quality in the area? That's exactly what I've been doing. OUr water is rock hard, which is why I rinse in distilled. |

GBeebies having a toddler tantrum because the Labour government won't dignify them with interviews. "Labour are only going to talk to people who agree with them". Yup just like the Tories did all through the last year.

Funny how the right are such big heroes until something doesn't go their way, when they turn into a bunch of whining two year olds.

Yup just like the Tories did all through the last year. Very dangerous, the people you need to listen to are the ones that don’t agree, often they have ideas that you haven’t considered. |

But if people are as consistently as wrong as Tories there's a rather good chance that the two things they are right about (assuming broken clock paradigm) are also being said by people who aren't misspelled Danish kings who are generally worth listening to. |

I find it interesting that some of the things the new government has announce sound very like old style Conservative policies. What happened? I’m very impressed with how fast they ditched the Rwanda fiasco. |

I think they understand - and care about - the optics of being seen to make an immediate difference. It's a key strategy to build trust and show decisiveness, which the former administrations could never have managed. Let's see how long it lasts! |

The former administration, despite a majority, behaved like a rudderless ship. Clearly the Truss premiership did nobody any favours especially Ms Truss herself. Her predecessor was Boris being Boris and it was he that successful compromised the trust of the electorate. Liz seems to have confirmed the general opinion of diminished responsibility. Could Rishi have turned things around? Possibly, if he had been decisive from day one but I have always distrusted politicians who are financially independent, it leads to disconnection. We’ll see how well, and for how long, the current lot get on. If they can make their policies work, good for them. |

Is this a record after 4 days? |

Vitamin C purchased (should probably have gone online, TBH, but I knew Holland and Barrett would sell it... just not the price! Ouch!)
If I get time on Friday evening I will soup a test roll (to test whether my antediluvian Rerapan is shite like the last two rolls I shot - if it is, it's bin time), and see what I get.

Rishi might have if a) he had been in control of his party, he wasn't, and b) He had not been so thirled to the moronic, expensive and vindictive Rwanda policy - whether because of (a) above or because he is moronic, expensive and vindictive. |
