In the news

What about tomorrow, who's going to work?
I assume you'll cycle, but how deep will this affect the rest of the week's work days?
My gf should leave the house at 7, there's no way she's going anywhere...

(?)

Harrow now confirmed.

Utterly disgusting and should be all over the internet. Cunts!

Yeah, nasty stuff, medieval, a few things got revealed tonight.

it seemsly weirdly targetted:

electronics shops, jewellers, solicitors sort of makes sense, $$ or vs the state

sainsbury's distribution centre, sony centre holding lots of data (?)* set alight seems more sinister....

from torygraph news stream -

"**02.35 **The Sony warehouse centre at 6 Solar Way, Enfield, is the only UK centre for 'Sony DADC' and a large section of the UK's digital media is stored there"

I feel sick.

me too. that is a disgrace.

I have to go in. Not staying long if I can help it and neither are any of my staff.

+1 the video is public so if you have facebook you can share it. Absolutely disgusting.

anyway to see it if you don't have fb......?

My route to work is via brixton and clapham junction.
Start at 3 pm and finish at 11:30pm.

Not really relishing the idea of coming home after

Usually walk it, may cycle and doubt I'll use the bus.
Already looking at different routes

One of my mates works in the apple store.
They were briefed today on possible plans of action

ha, you read my post before I changed my mind and decided it was a little insensitive to have said such thing.

Apple Stores seem to be immortal in previous incidents ...

News from a friend - Bristol's getting worse. Rioting at St.Pauls and a large group of police, many on horseback going up the harbourside.

PCs more popular for games

“We apologise to customers in SW19 and CR0 (Croydon) who may be experiencing low pressure."

I am off to bed now guys. I hope I won't wake up to a 3rd world like city. Stay safe everyone!

@extra

It didn't strike me as insensitive at all really. What we are seeing happening is stunning (in the worst way) and I don't think a little sarcasm is a bad thing. It helps soften the blow.

Night all
