Evening vam. It has rained continuously since before I got up at 6.30. Alexa just told me it will rain tomorrow from 9 am till midnight. I'm getting a lift tomorrow to Morrisons at 7 in the morning. Back at 8. I do not intend to go out again. xx 😁☘️🍉

Ranvir Singh this morning: "9 million people in the UK, I find it obscene, in 2026 are on the verge of or already using foodbanks" Meanwhile the richest 50 families have more wealth than half the population. The levels of inequality in this country are staggering.
