🍺 It’s 30C and it’s beer o’clock. These things may or may not be related. Cheers!

📸 My little desk fan from Muji is working overtime this morning! But every little bit helps. It’s already 27C and it’s not even midday.
📸 Spotted: a trio of helicopters making their way along the Thames earlier. Impressive, if noisy!
📸 Enjoying an hour in the sun on our balcony. It’s toasty out there!
📸 An absolutely gorgeous sunset over London this evening.
📸 Just been for a pint at the Munich Cricket Club, enjoying the evening sunshine over West India Quay.
📸 Brunch out on the balcony today. Smoked salmon and cream cheese on bagels 🥯
☀️ It’s set to be a beautiful day here in London. Just slapped on some sunscreen and will shortly head out for some coffee in the sun.
🍕 Enjoyed some phenomenal pizza and delicious beer at Crate Brewery last night. 10/10 would recommend.
📸 Enjoying an iced coffee in the park before I head into the office for a couple of hours.
📸 Good morning from a lovely, sunny London ☀️
☕️ It’s Saturday morning and I’ve been wide awake since 6:30am. No alarm, I just woke up naturally. A hugely busy day ahead, so I’m happy I’m getting some peaceful time to sit, drink my coffee, and catch up on the news.
Then to to the office to record a ton of video…
🥂 New blog post: Easing into the weekend
Someone cancelled dinner plans, and I couldn’t be more relieved!

📸 It’s a little bit cloudy over London this morning, but I have some sunshine in front of me on the kitchen table until the weather improves.
📸 Spotted this in Soho this afternoon, on my way to a meeting.
📸 The view from here this evening.
Definitely a game of two halves. The sun is fighting its way through those dark, depressing clouds.
📸 July in London. 😭
📸 Just look at that sky! And it’s July?! Ugh.
Counting down the days us until I’m in Spain, enjoying some actual summer sunshine.
📸 This beauty just sailed past my apartment building.
🏳️🌈 London Pride: the morning after…
I’m actually feeling surprisingly fine. Didn’t stay up too late, didn’t have too many beers, had a good dinner and rehydrated before bed. All that aside, I’m taking it very easy today.

Well, marching in the London Pride parade yesterday was an absolute blast. The group I walked with from LGBT Humanists were lovely, the crowds were amazing, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many smiles in one place. Running up and down the street, high-fiving spectators while holding a placard was difficult, but no spills or falls occurred. (Being screamed at by the religious extremists wasn’t as much fun, but they were quickly drowned out by the vast majority of free-thinking people in the crowd.🏳️🌈 I’m going to need a lot more coffee before I’m in full London Pride mode. But once I am, I’ll be unstoppable… 🤣
📸 Survived another week! Here’s to an excellent Pride weekend in London.
🏳️🌈 Really looking forward to marching in tomorrow’s London Pride parade.
I’ll be with the LGBT Humanists. Give us a wave when you see us! I had an absolute blast the last time I marched in the parade. Such positivity, such joy. Thousands of smiling faces.
Not the gym buddy I was hoping for...

🏋🏼 I had the gym in our building all to myself this afternoon. Until the last ten minutes of my workout, when this giant beast of a neighbour came down, dressed in street clothes, and chose the treadmill next to me for… a walk. And a telephone conversation. While on speakerphone. Loudly. I glared at him pointedly - I could hear him over my own headphones and this is something he always seems to do - and he moved one machine away.The fact that my local council (The Kleptocracy of Tower Hamlets) says it’s fine for building sites to start work at 8am on a Saturday is all I need to know about who’s interests they’re looking after.
📸 Enjoying a lovely cool breeze out on the balcony this evening. Plus this incredible view.
📸 A relaxing post-work seat on the balcony, enjoying the very welcome sun.
Might summer be finally making an appearance? ☀️
📸 Goodnight 😴
