    So now that we’ve got the generally known targets done and key players mostly tied down, who do you think we’ll be going for next if we are doing more spending this summer?

    Loss my sense of smell the last two days and just finally started to smell hints of stuff today…sinusitis is unreal.

        I’ve been doing the nasal rinse but I don’t think it was helping much. Did get an insane amount of mucus out. I think what did work to get the smells going again was trying to get a whiff of eucalyptus and camphor. Could also be the sinusitis was already running its course. It’s pretty freaky because I’ve never had it this bad before.

        True. I think it was compounded with inhaling the wildfire smoke that came down over the weekend and I was outside for a bulk of it. So just insanely inflammed in my sinuses.

    I’m heading to the Emirates for the first time next month for the stadium tour. Although I’m super excited, I also have horrible travel anxiety and I’m really worried that I’m going to be a nervous wreck during my short time in London so I won’t be able to enjoy myself.

    It’s a really shitty thing to have, everything that should be an enjoyable leisure trip becomes a frightening challenge. Nonetheless, I need to face my fears and maybe things will turn out okay and I’ll have a blast.

      Hey mate, I live in North London, not too far from the Emirates. London can be an overwhelming place for everyone, and if you need any help with traveling from a to b, advice, or just someone to catch a drink with and chill for a while let me know

      That sounds quite debilitating. But, I really hope you manage to push through and have some fun on your trip!

      Maybe focus on how much you are looking forward to the tour? :D

      (Have some fun for me while you’re there too, please 😁)

    I finally got myself a library card. I brought home two books and started one of them. Can’t wait to restart reading as a hobby.

    The two books for anyone interested are I, Robot by Isaac Asimov and The Lathe of Heaven by Ursula K Le Guin.

      Very nice! I sometimes find it difficult to stick to reading regularly (like currently…). But, I mostly read of a night time before sleep, since I find that the most convenient time.

      I’ve been currently reading through The Edge Chronicles by Paul Stewart and illustrated by Chris Riddell

      Do you mostly read scifi books or a bit of everything? The Lathe of Heaven sounds interesting.

      One of may favourites is Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman.

        If you haven’t seen them, yet. Chris Riddell’s illustrations of Alice in Wonderland & Through the Looking Glass are beautiful. Just reread both books with my 5 year old for the first time in years.

          Ooo! Ill need to check it out! I love his illustrations and I think that would work fantastically with Alice in Wonderland

          I bought another copy of Neverwhere illustrated by Chris Riddell earlier this year 😅
