Trust you to show up and see that. I'm not going to say too much. I'm going on a date with a Fab lady. An actual flippin' date. I'm looking forward to it. I'm going to her town. I'm going to get a guided tour. And there will be food and drinks.

I forgot to say. This morning, as I was rolling into work, one of the front wheels fell off my chair. I rolled in on 3 wheels + suitcase while Mr KC was dispatched to pick up all the bits. Our handyman at work fixed it for me and gifted me some Allen keys for my London trip

It made me wonder why he isn't better known for his looks. Without Googling, I think maybe he did B movies, TV movies. And didn't achieve acting success until later in life. But that's just me guessing.

We have black bins and burgundy, cream and green too. 4 per house. The bin collectors make me have to move the bin(s) before I can drive off to work. It's not easy moving bins when you are on crutches on the drive.

I thought you might have to move before driving. I don't have to worry about that. There's a new bin for recycling in Shropshire. I should apply for one. Black bin, purple lid. Instead of a blue plastic box.

Down our way it's gray for rubbish and green for garden, but where I live we get a rubbish collection every week so lucky no need to worry about which bin is it.

This evening I'm saying hello to Jím. I've got a date with him tomorrow. I mean, a proper date. As in pre-courtship date. It's in glorious Telford, not far from the Shrew'. What's going on? It's all on the news. Did I tell you it's a proper date? It's taken nigh on months to arrange this, I tell thee.

Sorry for the late reply.... I've been clearing up in the kitchen, loading up my dishwasher and other such chores. And it's blue bin today tomorrow too.

KC² - you're in Zone 1. Or Zone Ø if you're staying at The Savoy.

And good evening to everyone else.

The garden waste goes on recycling day. But I don't count is recycling, recycling. I have a sack for paper and card. The new black bin with a purple lid is for plastic and tin. I can't be bothered with food recycling. Just as well there wasn't a food bin when I moved in to my current place.

"This evening I'm saying hello to Jím. I've got a date with him tomorrow. I mean, a proper date. As in pre-courtship date. It's in glorious Telford, not far from the Shrew'. What's going on? It's all on the news. Did I tell you it's a proper date? It's taken nigh on months to arrange this, I tell thee.

Sorry for the late reply.... I've been clearing up in the kitchen, loading up my dishwasher and other such chores. And it's blue bin today tomorrow too.

KC² - you're in Zone 1. Or Zone Ø if you're staying at The Savoy.

And good evening to everyone else.

(I'm looking forward to my dåtë tomorrow)

Do you really think I'm staying in the Savoy?! Think basement budget and you'd be right. I'm in an actual basement

Down here in Chiswick the blue bin is for recycling. I still remember the good ole days when we chucked everything into a single black bin and not worry about landfills. The only worry was the Falklands War and Tucker Jenkins from Grange Hill.

On this day 2017 shortly before 1:00 am, a fire teared through West London’s 24-story Grenfell tower. 72 people died. Scores were injured and hundreds were left homeless in Britain’s deadliest fire in more than a century.

The fire started in a Hotpoint fridge-freezer in a fourth-floor apartment. The flames traveled from the kitchen and up the exterior side of the building, which was filled with 300 residents. From there, the flames moved fast, engulfing the other sides of the building as well. Firefighters soon arrived, but the fire quickly reached the top floor. By 2 am, the fire was declared a “major incident.”

Because residents followed Grenfell’s “stay-put” fire policy, the death toll surged. Unsuspecting victims had been led to believe that their building was designed to contain a fire inside an apartment until it could be put out. So even as smoke filled the building’s single narrow stairwell, many residents heeded instructions to stay in their apartments, while others moved to higher floors, believing the blaze would be contained below them. Some ignored the policy and evacuated the building anyway. As the blaze spread around the sides of the building, it eventually made its way back inside several apartments. At 2:47am building officials abandoned the stay-put policy, telling residents to try and leave, if possible, but for many, it was too late. By 4:30am, the flames completely engulfed the tower. Upward of 200 firefighters and 40 fire engines responded, but the fire took more than 24 hours to finally burn out.

As rescue workers underwent the grisly recovery of victims’ remains, and the death count was still being tallied, Londoners angry over what they called Prime Minister Theresa May’s “flimsy” response to the tragedy protested, demanding more help for survivors. People were insulted that May had met with firefighters before victims. To quell the rising frustration, the British government promised to allocate more money to support and get them into new housing as quickly as possible.

For many, it wasn’t enough, especially those who saw the tragedy as totally avoidable. Documents obtained by the BBC revealed that the cladding or siding on the building was extremely flammable, and that the council overseeing the building chose it to save money on the refurbishment. (They saved £293,000). Similar buildings subsequently had their cladding tested, and failed too. A public inquiry followed, and days later, the officials responsible for managing the Grenfell tower resigned.

A BBC investigation also found that the firefighters were not even properly trained or equipped to fight the blaze. Challenges such as low water pressure and radio problems hindered their efforts.
