Sanada's ass-sized headache is not reacting to paracetamol. Yesterday's windy condition probably didn't help.
Went to Boots to collect prescription. They can't find my name on the computer system or in their bits of paper. "Oh, it's probably still in the post then, since your surgery's in Colchester. You know the post isn't running very well." I THOUGHT THE STRIKE'S TOMORROW AND THE MOST RECENT SORT-OF-STRIKE WAS IN LONDON. ARE WE IN LONDON??? DOES POST BETWEEN COLCHESTER AND HERE TAKE MORE THAN A WEEK?

Quiet competence has its moment.
