@fkamiah17 definitely up for it...but not about then. :(

@kathimmel Ach, bugger. It was just an fyi
How goes it, apart from y'know, Everything?

@fkamiah17 thank you. :) i did know about it. just wish i could be there.
all's okay. returned alive to scotland from a four-day excursion to the bowels of wrongleterre, so i can't complain.
how're your heart & mind?

@kathimmel Back to the promised land in one piece, huzzah

(also: wrongleterre )

Suffering a bit from too little sleep and an over-exposure to the news since I got back from That London, so I'm bowing out for a bit and moving to Moomin Valley with my poetry books

@fkamiah17 i love that you understand & appreciate 'wrongleterre'. :D
more remarkable to me that you've survived london. i was in a relatively relaxed place. you've got the right idea for easing yourself back in. may the moomins protect you from reality for as long as you deem necessary.
good idea to filter things through literature. much healthier than my desire to reach for the 6.2% ABV beer in the cupboard...

@kathimmel Tbf we spent most of it as far away from the people of London as we could
I've found that I enjoy the idea of drinking more than the drinking itself these days, and I *definitely* don't enjoy the longer hangovers!
Have a lovely rest of the day, petal

@fkamiah17 htf does one avoid people in london? you've an awesome talent there.

@kathimmel I was only there a few days, let me break it down for you:
Fri - mostly Hampstead Heath, brief foray into the village for pub lunch and book shopping (almost no one around as they were at work)
Fri night, cinema (enclosed, limited interaction, I don't really count that)
Saturday: walked to march through back streets and parks, not that many people around cos early(ish)
March obvs rammed but then Uber to theatre (limited enclosed interaction again)
Sun: at the house all day eating

@fkamiah17 thank you for this insight. under your terms, i'm quite good at avoiding people. :D

@kathimmel Mine and Jo's usual condition for visiting London is "don't make us see other people"

@fkamiah17 that is an excellent MO.

@fkamiah17 o, yeah. totally different head.

@kathimmel Also helps that we stay with a friend who has a house on the far side of Clapham Common, so we have a massive stretch of grass between us and the rest of London from the get go

@fkamiah17 jammy! spare a thought for those of us who have no friends in london. :)
to be fair, the only time i want to be in london is when i'm catching eurostar to paris. <3

@kathimmel Ooft, main train stations are a nightmare I don't miss!

@fkamiah17 in the name of france, i endure.

@kathimmel Get you Louise Michel

@fkamiah17 her claim to fame was definitely a virulent hatred of public transport. :)
