Mornin'... What happened to Tuesday? No one was around? 🙂

yesterday I was in trains most of the morning/early afternoon.

Oh, I was here, but I'm working on a Clojure project so was probably too focused to look at Slack!

It freaks the Americans out that the UK can run perfectly well without a government (during elections) -- and that our election cycles can be so short. My US friends are fascinated by the current process with Burnham and Starmer!

nah.... Belgium can go without a government for 2 years!!!

that said.. the British system where you can change PM without an election is quite special. It is in theory possible in the NL as well. but extremely unlikely as a new election would be called.

Good afternoon! Or hot afternoon, as the case may be.

Definitely on the hot side (and I am in the Far North where we haven't got it so bad)
