Star Trek Picard — Series 1 Episode 8 — Broken Pieces — A Review

4th April, 2020.


Is it possibly to be mildly outraged by something?

Now I look back at the introductory video?

I can’t help but think outrage is possibly too strong a word.

Although I’ve possibly a couple of things to be outrage at.

One?

Earlier to day, I went to the Brentwood branch of Sainbury’s.

Where, whilst queueing up, along side everyone else?


I noticed the guy in the bright green Lamborghini, trying to park.

A Lamborghini, for  crying out loud.

That’s a little bit excessive, for just a loaf and a couple of spuds, would you say?

~≈¥≈~

The other thing that annoyed me?

I saw this piece of news, earlier.

Telling us a couple of 5G phone masts had been set on fire: with at least one attacking claiming they were attacking the site as 5G phone masts were responsible for the current Corona virus outbreak.

Ye … mothering … GODS!!!

How much of an idiot do you have to be to believe some of the sillier conspiracy theories doing the rounds?

Especially the bit of arse-hattery* that says a telephone pole can give you a virus?

And that you need to burn something down, or wear a tinfoil hat?

Ye gods!

~≈¥≈~

At ANY rate … ?

It’s a Saturday, I’ve been shopping, I’ve eaten …

And I have, as promised, managed to catch some TV.

Yes.

Another episode of Star Trek Picard’s first series.

Star Trek Picard — Series 1 Episode 2 — Maps and Legends — A Review

20th March, 2020.


It’s officially official: I’m unemployed.

But you knew that, anyway: especially if you’ve been following me for a while.

So … ?

I don’t get out much.

Given the circumstances?

That’s possibly a good thing.

As the government has informed pubs, bars, restaurants and gyms that they should close up, tonight … 

And stay closed for an indefinite amount of time from tomorrow.

That’s going to hurt the industry.

Speaking as an ex barman?

There’s going to be a lot more of us, around.

There’s also my former profession: of pub quiz master.

I know one of two quiz masters, DJs, musicians who are now out of work.

Ans, as self employed … ?

I don’t know if the qualify for the help the government’s offering.

~≈†≈~

At any rate … ?

Not going out … ?

Not going out means … a lot of things, actually.

But mainly … ?

That I’m going to be the usual thing.

Yes.

Watching a lot of TV.

Tonight … ?   I’ve caught another episode of Star Trek Picard’s first series …
