Well, this is fun. I've got the tail-end of labyrinthitis, now with a bonus ear infection (caused by one of my hearing aids breaking). What could go wrong next? An incompetent, unprofessional psychopath running a major country? Oh... Hang on.....

An old photo, but.... I stayed at the Premier Inn in Worcester some years ago, and was somewhat surprised to open the curtains and find Worcestershire County Cricket Club right outside the bedroom window!
