Two things:
1. Been in hospital for major operation, performed by utterly brilliant team of 12, only one of whom was British, led by Spanish anaesthetists and uber cool 30 year old black French surgeon indistinguishable from Bob Marley, radiating competence, humour and leadership.
1. Glad the op went ok and you're healed soon.1.

2. Out now and OK, watching lunchtime telly and a succession of street interviews in Dudley Market, absolutely wreaking of naked, vile racism and calls for Brexit to happen asap.
Fuck 'em all. And no, that's not the medication talking.
2. I'm originally from Bridgnorth (not too far away from Dudley) and one of the reasons I've not been back for the past couple of years (only once since the ref) is this very same thing. Ok they've got their shirts on there but the level of xenophobia that's arisen because of that vote just disgusts me, I want no part of it, and although I love the town where I was born I just feel shame even at the thought of visiting.
