Today I...

...Paid my credit card bill in time to avoid being charged interest.
...Converted my dollar check into a sterling cheque, via a friend who has UK and US bank accounts.
...Discovered that the silver I bought for making electrodes was considerably thicker than the (considerably more expensive) type I've had previously, and about a third the price by weight. The reason being I bought it from a jeweller's supply place, not a chemical supply house.
...Established, with a fair amount of certainty, that the problem with my computer is the power supply (this is good news, it's easy to replace)
...And voted against Boris fracking Johnson

No prizes for guessing which one pleased me the most.

The coverage here about the London mayoral election has been fascinating. My vote is for that option.

Johnson is dangerous because he puts across the idea that he'll be a "fun" mayor, but he's actually fairly far to the right and has a long record of incompetence and stupid behaviour, including losing jobs for lying. I'm not convinced any of the alternatives are much better, but of the ones I really dislike, Johnson is the only one with any chance of winning.
