13th September, 2024.
Yeah!
It’s Friday!
And … ?
It’s vaguely amazing to me that Ferdinand Marcos Jr — who I’ve quoted, today — is also known as Bong Bong.
Why?
I don’t know.
But it must be true: it’s on Wikipedia …

I’ve got to admit, I’m rather proud of my nephew, Jude.
He was over, last night: making a video, so you know.
When I went to get dinner, he managed to spill a glass of water I keep on my table: but cleaned it up after himself.
He both let me know — over WhatsApp — and apologised.
He’s a good kid.

I’ve caught the news, earlier: floating around the BBC’s news website, as I do.
And couldn’t help but notice that a serious assault on Ingrave Road has now turned into murder: after the assaulted party died in hospital.
I’m shocked: as I recognised the place the policeman’s posted outside.
It’s what used to be Brentwood Maternity Hospital, and is a mixed block of bedsits and one-bedroom flats called Four Oaks.
I’m shocked … because I used to live there!
OK, the place always had a few dodgy residents.
But finding out a murder’s been committed, there, was shocking*!
