I don't think a great deal happened today. Did it? Anyone? Nah. Ah well. M**** gave birth (via induction), but apart from that . . . nope. M****'s asked me to remove the falsehoods from this entry. I don't think I have.

What am I on about? Loads of stuff happened today (erm . . . kind of). It was Paul's (from work) birthday, so we all went to Bar Home for a drink or two. Before that, I had to go to Leeds train station to get some money from the cash point. And, yeah . . . ain't no crime going on in there, as there's at least four armed police officers standing by. Fingers near the trigger, but not actually on the trigger. Probably with the safety on as well, although I didn't look that closely. So, yeah . . . Loads of weird stuff was going on over in Hyde Park, just off Woodsley Road, near the mosque. They kept saying Burley or Burley District in the media, but it is soooooo Hyde Park. Didn't really affect things over here, barely half a mile away. Later on, I'm on my door-step, sipping my gin and tonic, reading the Metro, and I have my first ever conversation with my neighbour, Trevor. How weird's that? We were mainly going on about the, erm . . . heightened security situation and the stuff over in Woodsley Road. blah blah blah. Hey, we should have a bet: how many crazy, Draconian, democracy-crushing laws will now be passed unopposed through the Commons in order to 'tackle terrorism'? I said this to M****, kind of half-joking.

  • Comment: It is always very unclear whether M**** has given birth-I take it she probably hasn't....
    So I was in London when the bombers were in Leeds and Leeds when the bombers were in London. Damn lucky that.
    Glad it wasn't your street evacuated, I don't imagine that would be ideal right now.

  • Comment: Ah, it was all fine. The house they raided was completely empty anyway. I think the police carried out a few controlled explosions, but the area affected was fairly small.

  • Comment: I aim to cause confusion, but nothing a bit of logic shouldn't be able to quickly dispel. My negatives are confusing me here. Erm . . . Anyway, friends and family would almost certainly hear the news before it was put on the web-site, and when I did/do post the news, you'd probably get some awful picture of a freaky, wrinkly baby unit. Hope that clarifies things a bit. There's people like Rachel, Anna, Liz and a few other people who are difficult to reach, you see. These people may or not be using this as a source of news.
